Green Chili and Cheese Chicken
1 Pound Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts, shredded
1 Green Chili Enchilda Sauce (or equivalent)
1 Medium Onion, sliced thin
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
8 ounces Tomato Sauce
½ Cup Low Sodium Fat Free Chicken Broth
¼ Cup Heavy Whipping Cream
1 Teaspoon Cumin
1 Teaspoon Garlic Powder
1 Teaspoon Salt
9 Corn Tortillas
1 Cup Fat Free Cheddar Cheese (we prefer Cabot brand)
⅓ Cup Sliced Black Olives
Place chicken and green chili enchilada sauce in small Crockpot and cook for 3-4 hours on high.
Turn off Crockpot and shred chicken, leaving in sauce.
Set aside, cool and/or refrigerate until ready to assemble.
In nonstick skillet heat Olive Oil and onions. Cook onions over medium heat until caramelized (10-12 minutes). Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
Add onions to chicken mixture, but do not wash pan.
In same pan, add tomato sauce, chicken broth, cumin, garlic and salt and bring to a boil.
Reduce to a simmer and add heavy whipping cream to mixture. Cook for an additional 4-5 minutes or until thickened slightly.
Assemble casserole starting with tortillas, chicken, cheese, olives then sauce. Use ⅓ of each item finishing with sauce and extra cheese & olives on top.
Bake at 350 degrees for 30-35 minutes or until golden brown and bubbly
