Ingredients
2 cups cooked, shredded chicken
1 can (15 oz) diced tomatoes, drained
1 cup chopped bell peppers (use a mix of colors for vibrancy)
1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or Mexican blend)
1 tablespoon taco seasoning (homemade or store-bought)
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup salsa
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped (plus extra for garnish)
Salt and pepper to taste
Directions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a baking dish to prevent sticking.
- Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, add the shredded chicken, drained diced tomatoes, chopped bell peppers, taco seasoning, sour cream, salsa, and 1/4 cup of cilantro. Mix until everything is well combined and coated.
- Assemble the Casserole: Transfer the mixture into the greased 9×13 baking dish, spreading it out evenly. Top with shredded cheese to cover.
- Bake: Place the casserole in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and has a golden hue.
- Garnish and Serve: Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly. Garnish with extra chopped cilantro and optionally some fresh diced tomatoes before serving. Enjoy as a main dish or pair with a green salad or cauliflower rice for a complete low-carb meal.
Notes
- Serving Suggestions: Consider serving with avocado slices or a dollop of guacamole to enhance the meal’s creaminess and flavor.
