...made with a crushed Nacho Cheese Doritos crust. I used a basic recipe for Mexican Chicken Casserole from the internet and tweaked it to my personal taste, making by own cheese sauce. I used a roasted chicken from Kroger and added chopped black olives, crushed green chilies, chopped onion and freshly grated Cheddar, Smoked Gouda and Pepper Jack cheese.
I mixed the pulled chicken, veggies and cheeses (saving enough cheese for the topping) along with the cheese sauce - to which I had added a can of well drained Rotel Tomatoes w/peppers - in a bowl and then poured over the crust. It was then covered w/foil, baked @ 400° for about 40 minutes, removed from oven and topped with remaing grated cheeses, then returned to oven - minus foil- and baked until cheese had melted. *Watch that last 10 minutes carefully to make sure cheeses do not overcook. The cheese topping should be gooey, not hardened or burned. **Make sure you spray the bottom of your baking dish so the crushed chips do not stick.
