Time 45m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 5

6 to 8 green pork tamales (Oaxaca style), husks removed
2 cups cooked, shredded chicken (from 3 lb deli rotisserie chicken)
2 1/2 to 3 cups green salsa, from 2 (10 oz each) jars
2 cups shredded Mozzarella, Oaxaca or Manchego Cheese
1/2 cup sour cream

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 400° F. In a 13x9-inch glass baking dish (3-quart), place the tamales (husked) so the bottom is completely covered (you may have to cut some in half).
  • In medium bowl, mix chicken and salsa; spoon over tamales. Sprinkle with cheese. Cover dish tightly with foil sprayed with cooking spray to avoid sticking.
  • Bake 25 to 35 minutes or until bubbly and cheese is partially melted. Remove from oven; uncover. Drop sour cream by tablespoonfuls over casserole. Garnish with fresh cilantro and avocado slices or finely chopped red onion.

I'm allergic to cheese, so I had to make a few substitutions. The casserole still turned out great, though!

This recipe was too complicated for me. I ended up giving up and ordering pizza instead.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my casserole didn't turn out as good as I hoped. It was still edible, but it wasn't great.
