Southwest Chicken Enchilada Casserole

Ingredients

  • 2 cups shredded, cooked chicken (I use rotisserie)
  • One 4-ounce can diced green chiles
  • One 15-ounce can black beans, drained and rinsed
  • ΒΌ cup low-sodium chicken broth
  • 1 bottle SideDish Chili Lime Vinaigrette, dividedΒ 
  • 8 grain-free tortillas (I use Siete Almond Flour)
  • 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • ΒΌ cup thinly sliced jalapenos, optionalΒ 
  • Freshly chopped cilantro leaves, optional for serving
  • 4 radishes, cut into matchsticks, optional for serving

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 375℉.

  2. In a bowl, combine the chicken, green chiles, black beans, broth, and ΒΌ cup of SideDish Chili Lime Vinaigrette. Stir to combine. Set aside.

  3. In a 10-inch or 12-inch cast iron skillet, pour ΒΌ cup of SideDish Chili Lime Vinaigrette in the bottom and spread until it evenly coats the bottom in a thin layer. Layer 3 tortillas over the sauce to cover the bottom of the skillet. Top with half of the chicken mixture, then 1/3 cup of the cheese.

  4. For the second layer, lay 2 more tortillas on top, the remaining chicken mixture, and 1/3 cup more of the cheese.
  5. Finish by topping with 3 more tortillas, the remaining SideDish Chili Lime Vinaigrette and spread across the tops of the tortillas, and the remaining 1/3 cup of cheese. Top with the sliced jalapeΓ±os, if using.

  6. Transfer to the oven and bake, uncovered, until the cheese is bubbly and slightly browned, about 15 minutes.
  7. Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with cilantro and radishes, if desired.
