Street Corn Chicken Casserole brings all the bold, irresistible flavors of Mexican street corn into a creamy, cheesy, family-friendly bake. This dish layers tender shredded chicken with sweet corn, smoky spices, tangy lime, and melty cheeses, creating a comforting casserole that’s equal parts savory, vibrant, and satisfying. Every bite delivers that classic street-corn contrast of creamy richness and bright spice, wrapped in a golden, bubbly topping.
The base mixture combines sour cream, mayo, Parmesan, and seasonings to create a luscious, flavorful sauce that coats the chicken and corn beautifully. Monterey Jack or pepper jack adds mild heat and stretch, while mozzarella contributes those classic gooey cheese pulls. Green chiles bring mellow heat and depth, making the casserole taste complex without requiring much effort.
