Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, cream of chicken soup, sour cream, and 1 cup of cheddar cheese. Mix until smooth and creamy.
- Spread the mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish.
- Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of cheddar cheese evenly over the top.
- Add a generous layer of crushed corn chips or Doritos to finish.
- Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbling around the edges and the topping is golden.
- Serve warm and enjoy the creamy, cheesy crunch.
Variations
- Add diced green chiles for a mild, flavorful kick.
- Stir in a cup of cooked vegetables such as corn or peas for extra heartiness.
- Use Monterey Jack or pepper jack cheese for a different flavor profile.
- Replace corn chips with buttery crackers for a softer, crumbly topping.
Tips
- For extra color and freshness, top with sliced green onions or jalapeños just before serving.
- Make ahead by preparing the filling in advance and adding the chips right before baking.
- Use rotisserie chicken for quick prep and extra flavor.
- If the topping browns too quickly, cover loosely with foil during baking.
