Cooking Instructions

      Pro Tips and Variations

      For a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or a few dashes of hot sauce to the chicken mixture.

      Substitute ground beef or turkey for chicken if desired. Ensure to drain any excess grease after browning.

      Add black olives or mushrooms to the vegetable mixture for added flavor and texture.

      Use a mix of different cheeses, such as Monterey Jack or pepper jack, for a more complex flavor profile.

      To make this casserole ahead of time, assemble it but don’t bake it. Cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours. When ready to bake, add an extra 5-10 minutes to the cooking time.
