Best Tuna Or Chicken Enchilada Casserole Recipes

TUNA OR CHICKEN ENCHILADA CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Mix the first 8 ingredients together through the tortillas.
• Pour 1 cup of the enchilada sauce in the bottom of a 13x9 casserole dish.
• Spread enchilada mix over the sauce in the 13x9 dish.
• Pour the remaining sauce over the enchilada mix.
• Top with remaining 1 cup of cheese.

• Let sit for 5-10 minutes before serving.
• Great with crisp torn iceberg lettuce and sour cream.

EASY CHICKEN ENCHILADA CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Cut each chicken breast in about 3 pieces, so that it cooks faster and put it in a small pot. Pour Enchilada sauce over it and cook covered on low to medium heat until chicken is cooked through, about 20 minutes. No water is needed, the chicken will cook in the Enchilada sauce. Make sure you stir occasionally so that it doesn't stick to the bottom.
• Remove chicken from the pot and shred with two forks.
• Preheat oven to 375 F degrees.
• Start layering the casserole. Start with about 1/4 cup of the leftover Enchilada sauce over the bottom of a baking dish. I used a longer baking dish, so that I can put 2 corn tortillas across. Place 2 tortillas on the bottom, top with 1/3 of the chicken and 1/3 of the remaining sauce. Sprinkle with 1/3 of the cheese and repeat starting with 2 more tortillas, then chicken, sauce, cheese. Repeat with last layer with the remaining ingredients, tortillas, chicken, sauce and cheese.
• Bake for 20 to 30 minutes uncovered, until bubbly and cheese has melted and started to brown on top.
• Serve warm.

CHEESY CHICKEN TUNA CASSEROLE

Steps:

• 1. Cook pasta to just before al dente. Drain.
• 2. In a large bowl, combine pasta and the remaining ingredients, reserving 1/2 of the cheese. Mix.
• 3. Spoon into a large casserole dish. Top with remaining cheese.
• 4. Bake at 350 for about 20-30 minutes, or until top is bubbly and starting to get golden brown.

TUNA ENCHILADA CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Wrap tortillas in a slightly dampened tea towel. Place in microwave for 2-3 minutes, (depending on the wattage of your microwave) to soften. If you do not have a microwave, fry quickly in a bit of oil to soften.
• Mix the enchilada sauce with the water.
• Pour a scant 1/4 cup sauce into the bottom of a greased round, 2-qt. casserole.
• Pour the rest of the sauce into dish deep and wide enough to dip tortillas into.
• Dip two tortillas in sauce and arrange in casserole; sprinkle with 1/3 of the tuna, 1/4 of the cheese, 1/3 of the onion, and a scant 1/4 cup of the sauce.
• Make two more layers like this and top with the last two tortillas and the remaining cheese.
• Pour the rest of the sauce over all and bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes.
• It looks pretty if you sprinkle sliced black olives over the top before serving.
