CHICKEN FAJITA CASSEROLE



Chicken Fajita Casserole image

I found a recipe on Recipezaar.com called "Gringo Casserole" which was very good, but I got the idea to make it more like my favorite Mexican dish; chicken fajitas. My whole family loves this dish and it's very easy to make.

MEXICAN QUINOA CHICKEN FAJITA CASSEROLE RECIPE - (4.6/5)



Mexican Quinoa Chicken Fajita Casserole Recipe - (4.6/5) image

Provided by june

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 1/2 cups uncooked white quinoa
1 14-oz can black beans, drained and rinsed
1 1/2 cups salsa (I use fresh)
2 cups chicken broth (add more during cooking if needed)
Sea salt and ground pepper to taste
3 cups shredded pepper-jack cheese, divided in half
3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
4 cloves minced garlic (optional)
2 small jalapeños, deseeded and finely diced
1 onion, sliced and chopped into large pieces
3 bell peppers, sliced then chopped into large pieces
2 tsp Fajita seasoning (optional)
1 1/4 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into small pieces
2 tbsp Fajita seasoning

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix the quinoa, black beans, salsa, chicken broth, salt, garlic and 1 1/2 cups of the shredded cheese in a large bowl. Transfer to a 9x13-inch casserole dish sprayed with baking spray. Bake for 30 minutes. While the quinoa is baking, heat the olive oil in a large skillet. Add the diced jalapeños, onion, garlic and peppers; sprinkle with salt, pepper, and Fajita seasoning (if using). Saute until crisp-tender. Remove from heat. Toss the chicken with the Fajita seasoning. Remove quinoa from oven after 30 minutes; stir well and add the chicken. Stir gently to get the chicken mostly covered by the mixture. Return to the oven for another 30 minutes of baking. When the quinoa is done top with sautéed peppers and remaining 1 1/2 cups cheese. Bake another 5 to 10 minutes or until the cheese is melted.

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     Latin American     Mexican

Time 1h10m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 serving nonstick cooking spray
2 (1 ounce) packages fajita seasoning mix
3 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1 (1 pound) package frozen bell pepper and onion mix
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
  • Pour fajita seasoning into a shallow bowl. Rinse chicken, blot dry with paper towels, and dredge in seasoning. Place in the prepared baking dish and pour frozen vegetables over top.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with mozzarella cheese. Return to the oven and bake until cheese is bubbly and starting to brown, and chicken is no longer pink in the center, about 10 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
