SOUR CREAM CHICKEN BAKE RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Brown the ground chuck in a large skillet. Drain the fat, and then add the tomato sauce, 1/2 teaspoon salt and plenty of freshly ground black pepper. Stir, and then simmer while you prepare the other ingredients.
• Cook the egg noodles until al dente. Drain and set aside.
• In a medium bowl, combine the sour cream and cottage cheese. Add plenty of freshly ground black pepper and a pinch of red pepper flakes. Add to the noodles and stir. Add the green onions and stir.
• To assemble, add half of the noodles to a baking dish. Top with half the meat mixture, and then sprinkle on half the grated Cheddar. Repeat with noodles, meat and then a final layer of cheese. Bake until all the cheese is melted, about 20 minutes.
• Serve with crusty French bread.
• To freeze: Assemble the Sour Cream Noodle Bake in a disposable aluminum oven-proof pan and seal the top of the container with the lid or heavy foil. Seal the edges to prevent freezer burn and place in the freezer.
• To cook from frozen: Place directly in a 375-degree F oven and bake, covered, for 45 minutes. Remove the lid and bake until lightly brown and bubbly, about 20 minutes more.

Steps:

• Sauté onion in hot oil over medium-high heat 5 minutes or until tender.

• Whisk together 2 cans green chiles, milk, and flour in a saucepan over medium heat; gradually add remaining 2 1/2 cups cheese, stirring constantly, until cheese is melted and mixture is smooth; pour sauce evenly over top of enchiladas. Spread remaining sour cream over sauce.
• Bake enchiladas at 400° for 20 to 25 minutes or until bubbly. Drain remaining can of green chiles, and spread evenly on top of enchiladas.
