MILLION DOLLAR CHICKEN CASSEROLE



Million Dollar Chicken Casserole image

Creamy and incredibly savory, it's a casserole that's hard to stop eating. The cottage cheese is the trick to getting such a creamy, melty texture. Using rotisserie chicken is a must for the recipe and helps keep it quick.

CHICKEN TAMALE CASSEROLE



Chicken Tamale Casserole image

When I think of tamales, I think of the rich masa and a chicken filling. This recipe recreates the masa in the topping, kind of like cornbread, but without sugar. If you don't have masa, use finely ground cornmeal. The filling uses convenience items too, like leftover cooked chicken, a can of fire-roasted tomatoes, and a can of chopped green chiles. Top with a good melting cheese of your choice, avocado slices, and chopped tomatoes. Garnish with black olives and sliced green onions, if desired. A little dollop of sour cream would be good, too!

Time 1h45m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 22

2 ⅓ cups masa harina
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
⅔ cup vegetable shortening (such as Crisco®)
2 ⅓ cups chicken broth
2 each poblano peppers
2 tablespoons olive oil, divided, or as needed
⅓ cup chopped onion
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 (14.5 ounce) can diced fire-roasted tomatoes
1 (4 ounce) can mild chopped green chile peppers
3 tablespoons capers
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 pinch ground cloves
3 cups shredded cooked chicken meat
6 each dried corn husks, soaked in water for 30 minutes
2 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese
1 medium avocado, sliced
¼ cup sliced black olives, or to taste
¼ cup chopped tomatoes, or to taste
¼ cup sour cream, or to taste
2 tablespoons sliced green onions, or to taste

Steps:

  • Combine masa harina, baking powder, and salt in a small bowl and stir to combine.
  • Place vegetable shortening in the bowl of a stand mixer and whip on medium-high speed until fluffy.
  • Mix in 1/3 of the masa harina mixture on medium speed, about 2 minutes. Mix in 1/2 of the chicken broth and mix until combined. Add 1/3 of the masa marina mixture, and mix about 2 minutes. Pour in the remaining broth and mix an additional 2 minutes. Add in the remainder of the masa mixture and mix about 5 minutes. The mixture will be a slightly thick batter. Allow to stand while the filling is prepared.
  • Preheat the oven's broiler. Place poblano chiles directly on the oven rack under the broiler and broil until the skin is blackened and bubbly. Turn the peppers to blacken the skin on all sides, about 8 minutes total.
  • Place broiled peppers in a paper bag, close the bag, and allow the peppers to steam inside the bag, about 10 minutes.
  • When peppers are cool enough to touch, remove the skins. Cut the peppers open and remove the seeds and membranes. Slice into 1/4-inch thick slices.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onions and cook until softened, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • While the onions are cooking, use some more olive oil to grease a 10x10-inch baking dish, and preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Add garlic to the skillet and cook about 1 minute. Stir in sliced poblano peppers, fire-roasted tomatoes and juice, green chiles, capers, cumin, and cloves. Cook for 4 minutes. Stir in cooked chicken and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes.
  • Pour filling into the prepared dish.
  • Carefully and evenly spread the masa harina mixture on top of the filling.
  • Remove excess water from each corn husk and place on top of the masa mixture, overlapping as necessary. Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour.
  • Remove foil and corn husks. Sprinkle on Monterey Jack cheese and return to the oven until the cheese melts, about 5 minutes.
  • Top with avocado slices, black olives, chopped tomatoes, sour cream, and green onions to taste. Serve warm.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all the ingredients and equipment you need. This will help you stay organized and prevent any scrambling.
  • Choose the Right Chicken: Feel free to use any type of chicken you like, such as boneless, skinless chicken breasts, thighs, or a whole chicken. If you're using a whole chicken, you'll need to cut it into pieces.
  • Season the Chicken: Before cooking the chicken, season it with salt, pepper, and any other desired spices or herbs. This will help enhance the flavor of the dish.
  • Cook the Chicken Properly: Depending on the recipe, you can cook the chicken in a variety of ways, such as baking, frying, or grilling. Make sure the chicken is cooked through before adding it to the casserole.
  • Use a Variety of Vegetables: Casseroles are a great way to use up leftover vegetables. Feel free to add any vegetables you like, such as broccoli, carrots, celery, onions, or potatoes.
  • Choose the Right Sauce or Broth: The sauce or broth you use will greatly impact the flavor of the casserole. You can use a variety of liquids, such as tomato sauce, cream of mushroom soup, or chicken broth.
  • Don't Overcook the Casserole: Casseroles are best when they're cooked until the ingredients are heated through but not overcooked. Overcooked casseroles can become dry and tough.

Chicken casseroles are a versatile and easy-to-make dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages.
