Fall is peeking around the corner and I’m looking forward to my first homegating party of the season! Hip hip hooray! It’s football season and I’m heading to Walmart to stock up on 24 oz. Paceยฎ Salsa Verde and the other ingredients I need to make my famous Salsa Verde Chicken Casserole! This casserole is always requested at my parties because of the big, bold flavors.
When it comes to homegating parties, my house is the place to be on game day. We like our food spicy, and Paceยฎ always helps me “ban the bland.” On a scale of 1-10, Paceยฎ kicks up the flavor to an 11! There’s no room for a wimpy salsa at my party.
Don’t tell anyone, but my Salsa Verde Chicken Casserole begins with a rotisserie chicken. This is one trick I use to get out of the kitchen and in on all the fun. Plus, it’s ready to eat in 30 minutes
Let’s Make Salsa Verde Chicken Casserole
Remove the chicken from the bones. You’ll need two cups. Combine the chicken with sour cream, chopped jalapeno and 3/4 cup Paceยฎ Salsa Verde.
Spread 1/4 cup Paceยฎ Salsa Verde on the bottom of a greased baking dish.
Layer with four corn tortillas and half of the chicken mixture.
Sprinkle with chopped cilantro, chopped tomatoes, and four ounces of Mexican cheese. Repeat layers.
Bake at 400ยบF for 25 minutes or until bubbly. Serve with additional Paceยฎ Salsa Verde.
