While scouring the internet for random ideas for dinner I came across this site via one of my craft blogs. I loved the ideas of the Chicken & Rice Enchilada Casserole, or Enchilasagne as someone on their comments called it. I didn’t follow the recipe to the letter, mostly as I forgot to put the beans in and didn’t feel like doing the spicy rice. So this is how I did it.
Ingredients.
Chicken Breast Chunks (Cut into slivers)
Old El Paso Enchilada Box Set
- Soft Corn Tortillas
- Enchilada Mix
- Tomato Sauce
Cheese
Rice
I browned the chicken breast in a pan with the enchilada mix and a little water while the rice cooked. Then I layered everything like a lasagna. Starting with some rice, cheese and tomato sauce. Then the tortillas followed by the chicken, cheese and tomato sauce. Repeat until the dish is full and top with cheese.
Place in the oven at 200Cel for 15-20 mins or until cheese is bubbling.
I think what I would do differently is add a little aromat to the cheese layers and more tomato sauce than what comes with the Old El Paso pack, as it was a little dry. Maybe using refried beans as well.
I made so much it lasted for dinner Tues night, plus Lunch for me Wed and dinner for my DH Wed night as I went out. So this could easily feed say a family of four for just under a tenner.
