This Crock Pot Chicken Enchilada Casserole is the perfect meal for a busy weeknight! I like to throw this recipe together before I leave for work in the morning. When I get home the house smells amazing and dinner is ready, which is always a win!  

 How To Make Crock Pot Chicken Enchilada Casserole 

To start, you will need to place the chicken breasts into the bottom of your crockpot. Then you will need to add some diced yellow onion, two cans of enchilada sauce, one can of Rotel, one undrained can of corn and a drained can of black beans. Next, season with a packet of taco seasoning and stir to combine. You will need to cover this and cook it on low for 6-8 hours, or high for 4 hours. 

Once the chicken has finished cooking, remove it from the crockpot and shred it by using a hand mixer. Then, place it back into the crock pot. Next, place the tortillas on a cutting board and cut them into strips. Then add them to the crockpot and stir to combine. Top the casserole with cheese and cover for an additional 20-30 minutes or until the cheese is melted. Serve this Crock Pot Chicken Enchilada Casserole with a side of Spanish rice or as its own meal and enjoy!

    Made this recipe but used hamburger instead because that is what I had thawed. This was great tasting and my wife loved it. Thank you for the recipe.
