GREEN CHILE CHICKEN ENCHILADA CASSEROLE PIONEER WOMAN RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375°. Melt the butter in a 12-inch cast-iron skillet over medium-low heat. Add the onion and cook until golden brown, 8 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the enchilada sauce, green chiles, and adobo sauce. Remove all but 2 tablespoons of the sauce to a bowl and reserve. Cover the sauce in the skillet with 4 tortillas so that they overlap slightly in the center and come up the sides a little. Top the tortillas with 1¼ cups cheese and half of the corn. Dollop half of the refried beans on top and drizzle with
  ½ cup of the reserved green sauce. Add 4 more tortillas and repeat the layering process with 1¼ cups cheese, the remaining corn, the remaining beans, and ½ cup green sauce. Top with the remaining 5 tortillas and the remaining green sauce and cheese. Cover the skillet with foil and bake until hot and bubbly, about 35 minutes. Remove the foil and bake until set, another 10 minutes. Let stand about 10 minutes before serving. Top with pico de gallo and cilantro.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 F.  One at a time, hold tortillas over the stovetop burner (heated to medium heat) to brown slightly, about 30 seconds per side. Set warmed tortillas aside. Sprinkle both sides of the chicken breasts with the cumin and chili powder. Heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat and cook the chicken on both sides until done in the middle, about 4-5 minutes per side or until juices run clear. Set it aside on a plate to cool, then shred it finely with a fork.  Throw the onions into the same skillet and stir them around to cook for 4 to 5 minutes, until deep golden brown and caramelized. Remove them from the pan and set them aside on a plate. Pour in the enchilada sauce and reduce the heat to low, allowing it to warm through. Pour 2 cups of sauce into a 9 x 13 inch casserole dish. To assemble the enchiladas, dip a tortilla into the sauce then lay on a sheet pan or plate. Sprinkle some cheese down the middle, followed by some chicken, and finally, some of the caramelized onions. Roll it up tightly, then place it, seam side down, in the pan. Repeat with the rest of the tortillas.  Pour the rest of the sauce over the enchiladas, then sprinkle on the rest of the cheese. Give it a final sprinkling of chili powder, then bake it for 30 minutes, or until hot and bubbly. Remove it from the oven and let it sit for 15-20 minutes before serving. Serve 2 enchiladas at a time, topping with a dollop of sour cream, a sprinkle of diced tomatoes, and a sprinkling of cilantro.
