Chicken Enchilada Casserole

Here is one of our favorite casserole recipes. Make sure you get the correct strength of enchilada sauce so you don't shock your taste buds. Hot isn't too bad but we usually prefer medium.

Chicken Enchilada Casserole

Ingredients:
1 lb chicken breast or tenders
1 medium onion
1 ten ounce can enchilada sauce
1 can cream of chicken soup
1 can cream of mushroom soup
1 bag regular Fritos
10 - 12 ounces grated cheddar cheese
2 cups chicken broth saved from cooking chicken

Directions:
Boil chicken 45 minutes to 1 hour and save broth. Boil chopped onion in 1 cup broth until soft and clear. Cut chicken into pieces and add to onion and broth. Add enchilada sauce, cream of chicken soup, and cream of mushroom soup. Mix well. Cover the bottom of a 9X13 casserole dish with Fritos. Cover with meat mixture then top with cheddar cheese and more Fritos. Sprinkle 1 cup of broth over the top. Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 30 minutes.
