Even when using a slow cooker it is important to build layers of flavor, and that starts with seasoning the chicken. We’ve used garlic, onion, and chili powders, along with cumin and of course salt and pepper. Green chilis, diced onion, and enchilada sauce help to add flavor and keep the chicken nice and tender as the casserole cooks. The chicken is then shredded and stirred, then, once again building layers of flavor, we add some sour cream that melts beautifully into the sauce. Cooked rice gives the casserole additional substance, for a meal that is as hearty as it is delicious. Naturally, we need cheese, and a nice cheddar melted on top then sprinkled with fresh slices of green onions is the perfect way to finish our casserole.
If you’re worried about spiciness, you can make your green chili chicken casserole as spicy or as mild as suits your family’s tastes. A mild green chili will add more flavor than heat, making it family-friendly. We’re so ready to dive into this dish that’s spent ours filling our kitchen – the whole house – with an aroma that has everyone asking when dinner will be ready.
