Step-by-Step Instructions
Getting started with this casserole is super simple! First, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, corn, sour cream, mayonnaise, two-thirds of the cheese, and all the spices. I love how the fragrant chili powder and garlic powder come together to create a smell that’s simply mouth-watering. Make sure all the ingredients are well blended; I usually give it a good whisk with a spatula until it’s thoroughly mixed. It’s easy to get carried away with taste-testing at this point!
