Cheesy Green Chile Casserole
Ingredients
  • 2 (7 ounce) cans whole green chile peppers, drained
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese, divided
  • 1/3 cup milk
  • 4 eggs, lightly beaten
  • salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to a medium-high temperature of 350 degrees Fahrenheit or 175 degrees Celsius.
2
Prepare the baking dish by coating it with a thin layer of non-stick cooking spray to prevent food from sticking.
3
Layer the bottom of the dish with roasted and chopped green chiles, which add a rich flavor to the dish.
4
Add a generous helping of shredded cheese on top of the green chiles, approximately half a cup.
5
Repeat this layering process two more times to achieve the desired depth of flavor and texture.
6
In a separate bowl, mix together milk and eggs until well combined, creating a smooth and creamy mixture.
7
Season the egg mixture with salt and pepper to enhance its flavor.
8
Pour the seasoned egg mixture over the layers of green chiles and cheese in the baking dish.
9
Bake the dish in the preheated oven for a period of 25 to 30 minutes, or until the filling is set and has achieved the desired consistency.
10
Allow the dish to rest for 5 to 10 minutes before serving, allowing the flavors to meld together and the filling to cool slightly.
