I made LisaK's Chicken Casserole for dinner tonight.
1 whole chicken (lv) or 1 package of boneless skinless breasts or chicken tenders (sv) I usually buy a 3 pack of breasts.
1 can of Rotel
1 or 2 cans of Cream of Chicken Mushroom soup (I used 2, hers called for 1)
1 small onion
1 bell pepper
1 32-oz. carton of Swanson Natural Goodness 33 percent lower sodium chicken broth (only needed for the sv) or 3-4 cups of chicken broth from where you boiled the whole chicken (lv)
1 bag of Doritos — the corn flavor in the yellow bag
1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese (or more depending on how cheesy you want it)
*I used the Nacho Cheese Doritos*
Boil your chicken until done. If your using a whole chicken, season water with celery, carrots, salt, etc to make a broth.
Set chicken aside and let cool. Chop up bell pepper and onion and saute in a pan for about 5 minutes.
Add chicken broth, soup and rotel and heat until soup is melted.
In a 9-x-13 baking dish, spray with nonstick coating. Pour half the bag of Doritos into the pan and crush. Depending on how thick you want the crust, you can add more or less.
I used my love Pampered Chef casserole dish, not a 19-x-13 in.
Tear up chicken and cover the Doritos. Pour sauce over mixture, cover with foil and bake for 20 minutes. Remove foil and cover with grated cheese. Bake for 10 more minutes.
If you are using the can broth, always use the lower sodium otherwise it is too salty.
The soup and chicken broth mixture is going to be VERY thin. Don't fret, once you bake it, it will thicken up and the Doritos will absorb some of it

Yum!! Favorited!
1WOW that actually looks pretty good.
2oh snap! doritos in a recipe.
3Sooooo? Did you like it? How was it with the Nacho Cheese Doritos? I see you used Cream of Chicken soup. If you make it again use this one. IMO I think it makes it taste better.
4Oh my.
5wow what a novelty recipe! how was it mamacita? the pix look good

7It was very different. It has a distinct flavor to it. It actually was yummy though.
I've never been a fan of cream of mushroom soup, is that much better since it's combined?
8It is layla! I've been buying it lately combined when I make my chicken casseroles.
9Yes -- Cream of Mushroom is white and looks like barf. This is yellow and resembles COH. I just think it tastes better too.
10One time I didn't have it, so I used a can of Cream of Chicken and a can of Cream of Mushroom. It wasn't bad, but it didn't taste the same. Not near as good.
11Congrats on getting Reader Recipe.
12I got this recipe from my mother in law when my husband and I first got married and it's very good. It is one of my husbands favorite. My MIL and I top ours with sourcream and back olives and sprinkled with a little seasoning.
13Yum!! That looks really different and tasty!
