King Ranch Chicken Recipe



King Ranch Chicken Casserole RecipeWe have been looking for an easy, no-fuss King Ranch Chicken recipe and this is it. Our kids are picky eaters and its hard to find a recipe they and my husband like. Usually our finicky kids barely eat one serving of chicken for dinner. But they all loved it and everyone asked for seconds and cleaned their plates. A big hit!!

This recipe uses a can of Ro-Tel tomatoes. It's a combination of diced tomatoes and green chiles.
If you can't find it at your store, substitute one 14.5-ounce can diced tomatoes and one 4-ounce can chopped green chiles.

We like to saute the onions before adding them to the casserole. There have been occasions where the onions were not cooked all the way when we added them raw. To make this casserole even faster, you can use a pre-cooked rotisserie chicken from the store.
