Nancy's (wicked spicy, easy peasy) Chicken Verde Bake
This dish is great to make using meat from a whole cooked chicken (think rotisserie chicken you can pick up at the grocery store ready to go!) Or, I typically make this from a 4-5lb. beer can chicken I have slow cooked on the grill. Cooked chicken breasts can work too! 🐥

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Shred your cooked chicken into a medium mixing bowl. Saute the bell pepper, onion, jalapeno, and garlic until softened in 2 TBSP of canola oil. Add this to the chicken along with the remaining chicken mixture ingredients (making sure to salt and pepper everything as you go to taste). NOTE: Mixture should be fairly thick but with enough liquid to cook the rice, so just a little runny is ok!
- 2
Oil a 7 x 11 baking dish with canola oil. Add the chicken mixture. Then, layer the cheese (it should fully cover the chicken mix so add more cheese if needed), crushed tortilla chips, oil drizzle, and pickled jalapenos.
- 3
Bake at 375 uncovered for 25-30 minutes or until entire dish is very bubbly and golden brown along the edges.
- 4
Remove from oven and let stand 10-15 minutes before serving. Top servings with sliced black olives, fresh diced tomato, sour cream or whatever you like and Enjoy!! If it turns out bad, please feel free to blame me 😊

PS-After writing this recipe out (that I normally keep stored in my head along with all my other recipes) I now know why I don't typically follow recipes! There is too much reading!! 😂

I made this randomly for my boyfriend, he enjoys chicken with a kick. The trick to baking chicken is to bake it at a high temperature for a short period of time. This will make the chicken juicy and flavorful!

E-Z Chicken Tortilla Bake E-Z Chicken Tortilla Bake
If you’re like me, If you use corn tortillas for anything, you always seem to have so many left over and never get around to using them all. This is a great recipe to use some of them and is very simple to make. The original recipe called for cooking your own boneless skinless chicken breasts but I went an easier route with frozen pre cooked chicken. I also added a can of sweet corn. So feel free to customize to your own liking. This recipe feeds a lot of people or leaves plenty leftovers;-)

Gorgonzola Chicken Bake Gorgonzola Chicken Bake
So easy to prepare. We love sharp flavored cheeses and I try to incorporate New ideas into dinners using these wonderful cheeses. As the chicken bakes, it's goodness drips down basting the vegetables and potatoes. Topped with a sharp flavor, this is a great one pan delight. I hope you like it. You can change the cheese to your liking. A feta, blue cheese, goat cheese or even a mild mozzarella will all work nicely.

Pork Chile Verde Pork Chile Verde
This recipe was developed for a canned chile verde concentrate (which you may have been the recipient of!). The concentrate can be jarred and processed and is shelf stable for months. This recipe is scalable and each batch fits into 1 qt Mason jars. If you already have the concentrate you can skip to the pressure cooking step 5. I've also included a Dutch oven modification in case you don't have a pressure cooker.Enjoy!
