Step-by-Step Instructions
Let’s kick things off! First, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). While the oven is warming up, I like to start by mixing the shredded chicken, black beans, corn, salsa, and spices in a large bowl. The flavors come together beautifully, and that vibrant color is just so appealing! Once everything is well combined, you can layer your mixture into the casserole dish. I usually spread a bit of the mixture on the bottom of the dish first, followed by a layer of tortilla chips or corn tortillas. It creates a fantastic base!
