Lower fat and calorie cheesy chicken enchilada. Yum. I bake the chicken breasts in the oven with additional chili powder.

How To Make chicken enchilada casserole

  • 1
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly spray a 9x13 pan with Pam.
  • 2
    In a large skillet, saute onions 6 minutes (or until tender) using Pam or other cooking spray. Add salsa, cream cheese, shredded cheese and chili powder. Cook 3 minutes or until cheese has melted. Remove from stove and add chicken, corn and beans.
  • 3
    Spoon small amount of cheese mixture into 9x13 pan. You want just enough to cover the bottom. Tear 3 flour tortillas and use to cover cheese mixture. Spoon 1/2 of cheese mixture onto tortillas. Repeat layers. Drizzle with enchilada sauce.
