QUICK AND EASY GREEN CHILI-POTATO ENCHILADA CASSEROLE #5FIX



Quick and Easy Green Chili-Potato Enchilada Casserole #5FIX image

5-Ingredient Fix Contest Entry. I have a large family, (12 of us) and I buy the large bags of tortilla chips from a grocery warehouse. We always had a fourth of a bag left because by then they would be all crushed and the kids wouldn't eat them. One day my husband gave me a challenge to try to come up with some way to use the crushed chips, at the same time one of my grandsons decided he was going vegetarian. So I took it on as a double challenge and also decided I could only use what I had on hand. This is how the recipe was born. Ingredients can be adjusted to fit whatever size casserole dish you might want to use. Serve with a dollop of sour cream and a side of mexican rice (optional) I make it in a large alluminum tray (20 3/4"L x 12 13/16"W x 3 3/8"D) the qty of the ingredients are for this pan but can be adjusted for any size casserole pan.

Categories     Side Casseroles

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 lb hash brown potatoes, frozen
1/2 tsp onion powder
1 c sour cream
1 c cream of mushroom soup
1 c cheddar cheese, shredded
parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • 1. Mix all ingredients together except parmesan.
  • 2. Put into greased 9x13 casserole dish; sprinkle parmesan over top, about 1/4 cup or so.
  • 3. Bake for 1 hour at 400 degrees.
  • 4. NOTE: This can be doubled easily, and can also be prepared in advance and baked just before serving.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Potatoes: Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes are ideal for this casserole as they hold their shape well and become tender when cooked.
  • Slice Potatoes Thinly: Aim for 1/8-inch thick slices to ensure even cooking and a creamy texture.
  • Season Generously: Don't be shy with salt and pepper. Season each layer of potatoes to enhance their flavor.
  • Use a Sharp Knife: A sharp knife will make slicing the potatoes easier and prevent them from breaking.
  • Don't Overcrowd the Pan: Avoid overcrowding the pan with potatoes, as this will result in uneven cooking. Work in batches if necessary.
  • Cover with Foil: Covering the casserole with foil during baking helps create a moist environment and prevents the potatoes from drying out.
  • Uncover for Browning: Remove the foil during the last 15 minutes of baking to allow the top of the casserole to brown and crisp.
  • Serve Hot: Potato casserole is best served hot out of the oven. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
