Chicken Enchilada Casserole is a deliciously layered dish inspired by traditional Mexican cuisine. It combines seasoned, shredded chicken, corn tortillas, enchilada sauce, and ooey-gooey melted cheese baked to perfection. Popular for its bold flavors and comforting texture, this casserole simplifies classic enchiladas by arranging ingredients in layers instead of rolling them individually. While rich in protein from the chicken and containing fiber from the corn tortillas, this dish can be higher in calories and sodium due to the cheese and canned enchilada sauce. Opting for low-fat cheese and homemade, low-sodium sauce can make it a healthier option. Packed with vibrant flavors and customizable with added vegetables like peppers or black beans, Chicken Enchilada Casserole is a crowd-pleasing meal that celebrates the essence of Mexican comfort food while offering room to balance indulgence with nutrition.
