Tex-Mex Chicken Casserole

This post contains affiliate links. See full disclosure here. 

Over the years I have come to discover that casseroles or meals that include or are made with some type of chip in it, are delicious. Since my family loves Tex-Mex and chips, I knew that they would love my Tex-Mex Chicken Casserole. 

One thing that I love about my Tex-Mex Chicken Casserole is that I make it with chicken versus beef and the Tex-Mex flair doesn’t go away because of that. This recipe is easy to make and is perfect for busy families. 

Here is what you will need:

• 1 can of black beans, rinsed
• 1 onion, sliced or diced
• 1-2 tablespoons of oil
• 1-2 garlic cloves, diced
• 1-2 tablespoons fresh cilantro 
• 1 tomato, diced
• 1- 12-ounce jar of hot sauce, I used mild but feel free to spice it up
• 1 can of whole kernel southwest corn, drained
• 2-3 cooked chicken breasts, diced
• 2 cups of shredded Mexican four cheese
• 8-11oz of tortilla chips

The steps to make Tex-Mex Chicken Casserole are very easy. 

• Heat the oil in a pan and saute the onions and the garlic
• Remove from heat and add the diced chicken and stir
• Add the chips to a very large mixing bowl
• Add the black beans, corn, and 1 cup of cheese

• Add the chicken, onion and garlic mix to the large bowl
• Combine all ingredients until everything is mixed well

• Grease a 9×12 casserole dish
• Add the contents of the bowl into the casserole dish
• Top with remaining cup of cheese
• Bake 350 degrees for 15-20 minutes
• Let cool for 5 minutes
• Top with diced tomatoes and cilantro

My family loved this Tex-Mex Chicken Casserole. It was one of their favorite meals that I have made them recently and they have asked me to make it again. I may consider using Doritos next time, in place of the tortilla chips.
