FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQ’S)
Use store-bought rotisserie chicken and dice it up. It cuts down on prep time. Or if you have any leftover cooked chicken, you can use that as well. You could also bake or boil a couple of chicken breasts to use in this recipe.
Have fun with toppings like sour cream, sliced olives, shredded lettuce and diced tomatoes! Pretty much anything you would put on a taco, you can put on here.
You should be able to use any pre-made biscuit mix here, even the heart healthy one. If you want, you can easily make your own Homemade Bisquick!
Absolutely! You could add some pinto beans or black beans.
My personal preference would be a salad or some sort of steamed vegetable like broccoli. If you are okay with more carbs then I would try some restaurant style rice! Some homemade Slow Cooker Refried Beans would be delicious too!
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. This can also be frozen. Place in a freezer safe container where it will last up to 3 months. Just make sure to wrap it well to protect against freezer burn.
INGREDIENTS NEEDED: (SEE RECIPE CARD BELOW FOR THE FULL RECIPE)
- Bisquick mix– use the store bought mix, or you can make your own homemade Bisquick mix or use any other brand of biscuit mix.
- mild green chile enchilada sauce– you could swap this out for red enchilada sauce if you prefer.
- cream of chicken soup– use a canned version, or make your own homemade cream of chicken soup.
- taco seasoning– make your own taco seasoning with this homemade taco seasoning recipe, or grab a premade packet.
- diced cooked chicken – I find this easiest with a store bought rotisserie chicken. It makes for quick work but you honestly could even use canned chicken (2-10 ounce cans, drained) or you could boil or bake some chicken.
- shredded Monterey jack cheese– you can use the stuff from the bag, or grab a block and shred it fresh from the block. You could also swap this out for cheddar cheese, mozzarella cheese, or pepper jack cheese if you like more of a kick or any other shredded cheese that you enjoy that will melt easily.
HOW TO MAKE BISQUICK CHICKEN ENCHILADA BAKE:
Preheat oven to 375F degrees. Spray a 9×13-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. In a medium bowl, combine Bisquick mix with water. Stir well (batter will be lumpy.) Pour into baking dish and spread out evenly.
Using the same bowl (so as not to make any more dirty dishes than is necessary), combine enchilada sauce, cream of chicken soup, diced chicken, taco seasoning and 1 cup shredded cheese. Combine well then evenly spread over the Bisquick layer.
Top with remaining shredded cheese. Bake uncovered for 30 minutes, until bubbly and golden around the edges.
Allow to cool for several minutes, then slice and serve. Top with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes and sour cream.
