A delightful casserole combining chicken, cheese, and nacho chips for a comforting and flavorful dish.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Ensure the oven is fully preheated for even cooking.
Dice the onion and sauté it in butter in a saucepan until translucent.
Cook the onion on medium heat to avoid burning.
Add the diced tomatoes to the saucepan and stir to combine.
Use fresh or canned tomatoes for convenience.
Mix in the shredded cheddar cheese and stir until melted.
Stir continuously to prevent the cheese from sticking.
Layer the crushed nacho chips in the bottom of a casserole dish.
Reserve some chips for topping.
Pour the chicken mixture over the chips and top with the reserved chips.
Spread the mixture evenly for consistent baking.
Bake the casserole in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
Check for bubbling cheese to ensure it's done.
Let the casserole cool slightly before serving.
Allowing it to cool helps the layers set.
