Chicken Tamale Casserole Recipe


Chicken Tamale Casserole Recipe
Had this for dinner last night and DH loved it! Just a super easy baked dish with lots of Tex-Mex flavors. Not your typical tamale pie recipe!

Ingredients
  • 1 1/4 cups (6 oz.) preshredded Mexican blend cheese
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/3 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 (14 3/4 oz.) can creamed corn
  • 1 (8.5 oz.) box corn muffin mix (I use Jiffy)
  • 1 (4 oz.) can chopped green chiles, drained
  • Cooking spray
  • 1 (10 oz.) can red enchilada sauce (I use Old El Paso)
  • 2 cups shredded cooked chicken breast
  • Sour cream, fresh diced tomatoes, diced avocado for garnish

Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 400
  2. Combine 1/4 cup of the cheese and the next 6 ingredients (through chiles) in a large bowl, stirring just until moist. Pour mixture into a 13x9-inch baking dish coated with cooking spray.
  3. Bake at 400 for 15 minutes or until set. Pierce entire surface liberally with a fork; pour about 2/3 of the enchilada sauce over top. Top with chicken, drizzle remaining sauce over chicken and sprinkle with remaining 1 cup of cheese.
  4. Return to 400 degree oven and bake for 15 minutes or until bubbly and cheese has melted. Remove from oven and let stand 5 minutes.
  5. Cut into 8 squares and top with sour cream, tomatoes and avocado!

Sounds great. I bet it would taste great with ground beef instead of chicken to :)
