This recipe is a family favorite. I’ve been making Chicken Dorito Casserole since I was a very young child. I specifically remember hand grating the cheese from a big block of cheddar.
I love this dish fresh out of the oven or even as leftovers. We don’t usually have much left over, but I’m kind of bummed if I don’t get any because the flavors are so great after melding. But ya know, I’m an awesome wife, and insist that my dearest husband take them for lunch the next day.
This is one of the casseroles I made to bring my husband over to the “casseroles are good” side. This recipe is often requested, and I don’t blame them!
Here’s a Facebook comment from a friend that I shared the recipe with:
“YUMMY !!! Chicken Dorito Casserole was AWESOME !! Even my picky, picky peoples ate it. Thank you for sharing the recipe, Susan Campbell. It is now one of the Cucuzza house favorites. Served it with green beans & fruit salad. Can’t wait for the leftovers tomorrow !!”
