Ingredients
- 1 bag Nacho Doritos, crushed
- 2 cups shredded chicken or ground beef
- 2 cups shredded cheese
- 1 can (10.75 oz) cream of chicken soup
- 1 can Rotel tomatoes, undrained
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/2 package taco seasoning
Instructions
Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish to prevent sticking and make serving easier.
Take your bag of Nacho Doritos and lightly crush them—you want a mix of small crumbs and bigger pieces for the perfect crunchy texture. Set aside about a cup of crushed chips to sprinkle on top later.
In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken or cooked ground beef, cream of chicken soup, Rotel tomatoes (with their juices), sour cream, milk, taco seasoning, and half of the shredded cheese. Mix until everything is well blended and the ingredients are evenly distributed.
Spread a generous layer of crushed Doritos across the bottom of your prepared baking dish. Pour the chicken or beef mixture evenly over the chips, spreading it out with a spatula. Sprinkle the remaining cheese evenly over the top, then finish by adding the reserved crushed Doritos for extra crunch.
Place the casserole in the preheated oven and bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and golden. The chips on top will crisp up, adding a perfect contrast to the creamy filling underneath.
Let the casserole cool for a few minutes before slicing. This helps everything set and makes serving neater. Use a spatula to scoop out generous portions and get ready for the compliments to roll in!
