stemmed and seeded, adobo reserved
1 tablespoon ancho chili powder
12 whole chicken breasts (skin on or removed) or
your favorite part of the chicken
Salt and freshly ground pepper
3 tablespoons olive oil

1 large tomato, coarsely chopped
2 large garlic cloves, minced
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper

King Ranch Chicken Casserole - Texas' Favorite and Most Loved Casserole Recipe

King Ranch Chicken is probably the most well-known and loved casserole in Texas. But how chicken and the King Ranch came together is unknown to this day.

The King Ranch, the largest ranch in the Texas, is known for its cattle breeding and oil and gas reserves. But chicken has virtually no association with this ranch. Despite this mystery, this classic chicken casserole recipe is a part of Texas food tradition that should be experienced by all.

King Ranch Chicken Casserole Recipe

Ingredients

Sauce:

2 tablespoons unsalted butter

2 garlic cloves

1/4 teaspoon quality chili powder

Pinch of ground cumin

2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

3/4 cup unsalted chicken stock

1/2 cup milk

2 tablespoons sour cream

salt and pepper to taste

Filling:

1 tablespoon unsalted butter

1/2 medium green bell pepper, chopped

1/2 medium onion, chopped

1/4 cup fresh green New Mexican or poblano chile, chopped

8 ounces fresh mushrooms, chopped fine

1/2 cup canned diced tomatoes

2 tablespoons pimientos

Vegetable oil for frying

8 corn tortillas

3 cups shredded cooked chicken, diced

1 1/2 cups grated mild cheddar cheese

1/4 cup sliced scallions

1/4 cup sliced pimiento-stuffed green olives

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9" x 12" baking dish.

In a medium skillet, melt the butter. Add the garlic, chili powder, and cumin, and saute for a couple of minutes. Sprinkle in the flour, stirring. Slowly pour the chicken stock and milk into the skillet, stirring continuously to avoid lumps. Simmer the sauce for about 3 minutes, or until it has thickened.

Stir in the sour cream, salt, and pepper. Reserve the sauce for later. (The sauce can also be made ahead and refrigerated.)   

To make the filling, melt the butter in a skillet. Add all of the rest of the filling ingredients, and saute until softened and combined well. Reserve the filling.

Heat about 1/2 inch of the oil in a small skillet. With a pair of tongs, dunk each tortilla into the oil for a few seconds, or just long enough to soften them.

In the baking dish, layer half the tortillas and chicken a third of the sauce, and one half each of the filling, the cheese, scallions, and olives. Spoon over another third of the sauce, then repeat the layering of the remaining ingredients. End with the last of the sauce.

Bake the King Ranch chicken casserole for 30 minutes, just until it is heated throughout, and bubbly. Serves 6.
