This Green Chile Chicken Tortilla Casserole is a comforting dish that brings a little Southwestern flair to our Midwestern table. It’s perfect for busy weeknights or casual gatherings with friends and family. The creamy, cheesy layers are a hit with both kids and adults, and the green chiles add just the right amount of warmth without being too spicy. It’s a dish that reminds me of the times we spent on road trips out west, savoring the unique flavors of the region.
This casserole pairs beautifully with a simple side salad of crisp lettuce, cherry tomatoes, and avocado, dressed with a light vinaigrette. You might also consider serving it with a side of Mexican rice or refried beans to round out the meal. For a refreshing beverage, a glass of iced tea or lemonade complements the flavors nicely.
