Ingredients

  • 2-3 cups chopped rotisserie chicken
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 can cream of chicken soup
  • 1/2 cup half & half
  • 1/2 cup full fat sour cream
  • 1 can diced tomatoes with green chiles, drained
  • 1 1/2-2 tbsp taco seasoning
  • 4 cups crushed nacho cheese Doritos

Instructions

  • In a large mixing bowl, add the chicken, 1 cup of cheese, soup, half & half, sour cream, tomatoes, and taco seasoning. Stir together until everything's evenly combined.
  • Spray a 9x13" baking dish with non-stick cooking spray. Spread half of the crushed chips evenly out over the bottom of the dish. 
  • Add half of the chicken mixture, in dollops, evenly out over the chips. Use the back of a spoon the gently spread the mixture out evenly. Repeat the layers.
  • Sprinkle the last 1/2 cup of cheese evenly out over the top of the casserole. 
  • Tightly cover the casserole with aluminum foil. Bake at 350 degrees for 30-32 minutes, or until hot & bubbly.
  • Remove the foil, let the casserole rest for 2 minutes, and serve.

Notes

  • Want to add a plant to this? You could stir thawed frozen corn into the the filling.
  • For a kick, you could add some canned jalapenos.
  • Want it with zero spice at all? Use plain diced tomatoes and not the kind with chiles.
