4-6
ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 onion, diced
- 1⁄4 cup shallot, chopped
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme
- 2 cups tomatillos
- 1⁄2 cup stock (whatever you have around)
- 4 cups cooked cannellini or 4 cups lima beans
- 2 cups shredded cooked chicken
- 1 1⁄2 cups monterey jack cheese or 1 1/2 cups Cotija cheese
directions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Grease the bottom and sides of a square glass baking dish.
- Put the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. When oil is hot add the shallot and onion, cooking until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the thyme and cook for another minute. Add tomatillos and stock to the skillet, cooking while stirring occasionally until tomatillos break up and become saucy, about 10 minutes.
- Put half the beans in the bottom of the greased dish, sprinkling with salt and pepper. Follow with a layer of the tomatillo mixture, then a layer of the shredded chicken, finally a layer of cheese. Repeat with the other half of the ingredients to make a second layer to the dish. Bake until the casserole is hot and the cheese is bubbly, 20 to 30 minutes.

<p>This site has gotten so horribly bad over the past couple of years, I have stopped using it to manage my recipes and have gone over to using another one, which I have been forbidden to mention on Food.com. It's no secret that there are competitors; send me a message if you are in the same boat and would like to know. For now, I only frequent a few of the forums and that's it. The Titanic has sailed!</p>
