Notes
- For a spicy chicken ole casserole, use medium or hot style canned green chilies.
- If the chicken ole casserole feels dry, add up to an additional 1/4 cup chicken broth to the mixture.
- Substitute any other favorite shredded cheese for cheddar including Colby Jack, Monterrey Jack or Pepper Jack.
- For the cooked, diced chicken, I recommend using a store-bought rotisserie chicken. Remove the skin, and pull off the meat. Chop into bite-sized pieces.
- Start with 1/2 cup chicken broth but if the mixture seems dry, add up to another 1/4 cup.
