This dish is very similar to King Ranch Chicken and until I moved to Arkansas, I hadn’t ever heard of “Mexican Chicken.” It took a friend of mine asking me what King Ranch Chicken was, and when I told her, she replied, “Oh, you mean Mexican Chicken!” I said, no, I mean King Ranch Chicken!! Anyway, the only difference is that she uses Doritos instead of tortillas. I like it both ways! I just always tend to make King Ranch Chicken ’cause that’s what I grew up with. Both are quite tasty!

Yummy! I wonder who that friend was???
Interesting casserole I have never had it before looks comforting
I got this recipe from my sister n law and she adds bell pepper and onions and velvetta cheese (mexican blend). She boils her chicken, saves the broth and then dices up the veggies and sautes them in the broth, mixes in the velvetta and soup then adds it 2 the chips, its awesome
