Directions

Prep 20 minCook 40 min
  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 350°F and set out a 9x13-inch baking dish.

  2. 2

    Place the chicken in a saucepan, season with a pinch of salt and pepper, and add enough water to cover. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a gentle simmer and cook until the chicken reaches 165°F in the center, about 18-22 minutes.

  3. 3

    Meanwhile, in a large pan over medium heat, combine the chopped onions, chili with beans, chicken broth, cream of chicken soup, cream of mushroom soup, and sour cream. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat and cook gently for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  4. 4

    Transfer the cooked chicken to a cutting board and let cool slightly, then shred with two forks. Stir the shredded chicken into the sauce until evenly combined.

  5. 5

    Arrange a layer of tortillas to cover the bottom of the baking dish. Spoon on half of the chicken mixture and spread evenly, then sprinkle with half of the cheese. Repeat with another layer of tortillas, the remaining chicken mixture, and the remaining cheese.

  6. 6

    Bake until the casserole is hot and the cheese is melted and bubbly, 20-30 minutes. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

  7. 7

    Serve warm.
