Kitchen Equipment You’ll Need

Baking dish (9×13 inches recommended)
Mixing bowl
Measuring cups and spoons
Spatula or spoon for mixing

Ingredients
2 cups rotisserie chicken, shredded
8-9 flour tortillas (8 inches)
7 oz can of green chilies
1 can cream of chicken soup
1 cup sour cream
2 cups shredded cheese (cheddar or Mexican blend)
1 bag of Doritos, crushed

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step-by-Step Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, green chilies, cream of chicken soup, and sour cream. Mix well.
In a 9×13 inch baking dish, layer the bottom with 4-5 tortillas, slightly overlapping them.
Spread half of the chicken mixture over the tortillas.
Sprinkle one cup of shredded cheese over the chicken mixture.
Repeat the layers: another layer of tortillas, the remaining chicken mixture, and another cup of cheese.
Top the casserole with crushed Doritos, spreading them evenly across the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and the Doritos are lightly browned.
Let it cool for a few minutes before serving.

Tips for Success

Adjust the number of green chilies based on your spice preference. Start with one can if you’re serving children or those sensitive to spice.
For a crispier topping, add the Doritos in the last 10 minutes of baking.
Use corn tortillas for a different flavor and texture.

Additional Tips and Variations

For a creamier texture, add a cup of cream cheese to the chicken mixture. If you want to add vegetables, consider mixing in some corn or black beans. Feel free to switch up the cheese with pepper jack for an extra kick.
