Wonderful recipe! Have made this several times. I generally poach the chicken before adding it to the casserole to keep it moist. Also, I like to substitute salsa (mild or medium) for the canned tomatoes. Edit 12/2020: I made this last night and realized I've been making it for the past 11 years. And every time my mother says she doesn't like the dish before hand then compliments me after dinner. Still subbing salsa for the canned tomatoes. Still poaching the chicken for shredding. Started covering the casserole dish for the first 1/2 which helps to keep it from drying out.

Wonderful flavor and so easy. I used Tyson Fajita Chicken strips, chopped. Enjoyed at my house. Very happy.

I made this for a party of 50, using those aluminum chafing dishes/steam tables. I assembled them, baked them, and kept them warm on a table. I did this a few years ago, so I don't remember if I doubled or tripled the recipe, but it worked out beautifully. I probably doubled the recipe. For the chicken, I baked whole chicken breasts, and shredded them. We used no hot sauce. It was delicious. I suppose you could Sriracha Sauce.
