Well, now that I’ve finally gotten the opportunity to share the BIG NEWS with you, I feel like I’ve had a chance to take a deep breath. It’s tough trying to keep a secret like that! Now my attention turns to writing and compiling a book worthy of all this excitement. So, if I seem scarce, y’all will just have to bear with me. I’m going to do my best to continue to get you new recipes each week, they may just not be filled with all of the usual rambling. 🙂 Some of you might actually like that. I’ll be sure to keep you updated on the book progress as well. March of 2014 sure seems like a long way away right now, but something tells me it will be here before I know it. I can’t even being tell you all how much all of your comments and emails of love and support have meant to me over the past week. I haven’t had a chance to respond to them all, but I will. I promise.

This is one of those recipes that you’ll just have to try to believe. We’ve been doing sour cream chicken enchiladas in our house for years, but this pie version is a new take. It’s really easy and filled with flavor. I just know that you’re going to enjoy it! Y’all enjoy…

Sour Cream Chicken Enchilada Pie

Author Stacey Little

Course Main Course

Prep Time 20 minutes minutes

Cook Time 25 minutes minutes

Total Time 45 minutes minutes

Servings 6 to 8 servings

Ingredients

  • 3 cups shredded cooked chicken
  • 1 cup prepared jarred salsa
  • 1 (1.0-ounce) packet taco seasoning
  • 8 ounces sour cream
  • 1 (10.75-ounce) can cream of chicken soup
  • 1 (4-ounce) can chopped green chilies
  • 1 teaspoon granulated garlic
  • 6 to 8 small corn tortillas (about 5.5 inch)
  • 2 cups Mexican blend shredded cheese

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F and lightly spray a 9-inch deep dish pie plate with nonstick cooking spray. In a medium bowl combine the cooked chicken, salsa, and taco seasoning; mix well and set aside.

  • In another bowl stir together sour cream, cream of chicken soup, chilies, and granulated garlic.

  • In the pie plate, spread a few tablespoons of sour cream sauce in the bottom. Top with a layer of tortillas, cutting some in half if necessary to make them cover the bottom of the dish. Top the tortillas with half of the chicken mixture. On top of the chicken mixture, spread half of the sour cream sauce, then 1 cup of Mexican cheese blend. Add another layer of tortillas, then repeat layers with remaining chicken, sour cream sauce, then cheese.

  • Bake for 20 to 30 minutes, or until cheese is melted and bubbly and pie is heated through.

  • Serve topped with your favorite salsa or enchilada sauce.

    Hello, Stacey! Loving all of your recipes we’ve tried so far in our household.
    Question for you. I have to avoid tomatoes. Would green enchilada sauce be a good substitute in this recipe? What would you suggest for recipes that call for Ro-Tel, or could I leave it out? I want so badly to enjoy some of these recipes with my family. 🙂
    Thanks so much

    My nephew and I make one like this. He dubbed it Chicken Enchilada-sagna. It is so delicious no matter what you call it.

    Stacey, I know this recipe is an older one, but I just finally tried it and boy, was it delicious!! I was actually planning on making your Fajita Chicken Casserole, which I’ve been making for years and we love. Then, I stumbled across this one and decided to give it a try.

    I only made slight changes, based on what I had available. Instead of three cups of chicken, I used five cups of shredded rotisserie chicken. So, I added slightly more salsa to the chicken. And, I only had large flour tortillas. Since I had a lot more chicken, I layered it all in a 9×13 baking dish. I used two large flour tortillas per layer (four total). And, since it was a larger casserole, I baked it around 40 minutes.

    Thanks for another great recipe, Stacey. Lol, we’re already looking forward to the leftovers. And, I’m going to finally try your Five Ingredient Beef Enchiladas next week. My mother makes them all the time.

    I don’t not have a pie plate to cook the enchilada casserole so can I use and 8×8 glass baking dish?

    This looks INCREDIBLE!!!!! Do you think it would be ok to prepare it the night before or do you think it would get soggy? It would make Sunday lunch so easy if I could just pop it in the oven when we get home from church.. Thanks in advance!!! Love your recipes! 🙂

    • Sour Cream Chicken Enchilada Pie (20)Stacey

      There’s certainly a risk that the tortillas might get a bit soggy, but the whole thing ends up pretty gooey anyway. I’d try it if I were you! 🙂 I’m all about easy!

    • Lynda

      Thank you for your response. 🙂 I am going to try this next Sunday and will let you know how it turns out. Have a great week! 🙂

    I made this last night for dinner and it was TOO good to be true. I will be adding this to my weekly menu. So good and so easy. Has anyone tried this will hamburger in lieu of chicken. I think I would like it both ways.

      That’s wonderful, Pam! I’m so glad y’all enjoyed it! I’ve not tried it with hamburger, but it sounds great!

  9. g brown

    Can the green chilies be substituted? If so with what, or will the recipe just not taste as good with it?

    Reply

    • Sour Cream Chicken Enchilada Pie (23)Stacey

      They aren’t spicy, but you are welcome to simply leave them out.

  10. Karen Collins

    I LOVE this recipe! I found it on FB about a month ago…It is sooooo addictive, I’ve made it 3 times in 3 weeks! And so easy too….I use rotisserie chicken to cut down on prep time…..YUM! Now I want to make it again LOL

    Dear Stacey

    This recipe sounds like a real keeper. Will try soon.
    Please forgive me for not taking a picture of your cookbooks with me
    and putting it on FB. I just don’t know how to put pictures on the
    web. I barely operate a computer and that picture business stumps me.

    I have 2 of them and are ordering lots more copies for my family and friends.

    Love to all,
    Peggi Anderson

    I only have tortilla chips, but I am hoping it will just add some texture 🙂 I can’t wait to try this! Also, thank you for the tip between the granulated/powdered garlic. I never knew that. Just stumbled on here from Pinterest – but I can’t wait to check out your blog!

    • Sour Cream Chicken Enchilada Pie (26)Stacey

      Welcome! I’m sure it will be delicious with the chips! It just might be a little more casserole-like and less pie-like. Enjoy!

  13. Jen

    Made this for supper for us on Monday night. It was a big hit. Great leftover for lunches, too. Just finished off the last serving for lunch today. Yum.

    This recipe looks awesome. I am on the low carb Atkins Diet, would this recipe be good without the tortillas? I want to make it as low carb as possible. Thank you 🙂

      Of course! I think that would be great.

    My family loved this, and I just passed around the recipe to the ladies I work with. Reminds me a lot of our old favorite King Ranch Casserole, in a smaller version. It’s a keeper 🙂

    Is it red or green salsa ( 1cup prepared jarred salsa) ?

    Reply

    • Sour Cream Chicken Enchilada Pie (38)Stacey

      Whichever you prefer. I use red salsa inside and top it with salsa verde.

  24. Katie

    Please help with “granulated garlic”! You use it in your Green Bean Casserole, also. But, I cannot find it! I even have asked for help at Publix! No one knew?! I always try your recipes, but I’m afraid I am missing a “secret ingredient”!

    Thanks!

    Reply

    • Sour Cream Chicken Enchilada Pie (39)Stacey

      Hi Katie! Sorry for the trouble. You are welcome to use garlic powder in any of my recipes that call for granulated garlic, just cut the amount in half. If it calls for 1/2 teaspoon of granulated garlic, simply use 1/4 teaspoon of garlic powder. It’s all the same flavor, just a different texture. I recommend granulated garlic simply because I find that it is easier to measure.

    • SHeree

      Its in the spices, at any grocery store.

    • Sheri

      no it is not, I also cannot find it and have checked several stores.

    • Sour Cream Chicken Enchilada Pie (40)Stacey

      Like I said, garlic powder will work just fine.
