Easy Mexican lasagne is a Mexican-inspired dish that contains strips of tortilla, chicken, black beans, enchilada sauce and cream of mushroom, as well as cream of chicken soup. It is a recipe that was featured in the
Summer 2007 Southern Living magasine from Wal-Mart. The dish contains many flavour combinations that help to provide a spicy taste.
My husband made the Easy Mexican lasagne for dinner this evening using 3 chicken breasts that he had barbecued last night in preparation for today's meal. The recipe calls for three cups of chicken, but you can adjust this according to the size you need. If you use 3 cups of chicken, then this will make 8 servings. Pre-cooking the chicken in advance can really speed up the cooking process, so I would recommend doing this if you do not have much time on your hands. The recipe said that it would take 20 minutes to prepare the Easy Mexican lasagne, but it took longer.
He started off by stirring together the chopped up chicken, can of black beans, can of tomatoes, garlic powder, cumin and black pepper in a large bowl. He then added a can of reduced-fat cream of mushroom and reduced-fat cream of chicken soup to the mixture, followed by the enchilada sauce. This makes the basis for the lasagne.
After the ingredients had been mixed together, 1/3 of the mixture was transferred into a 13-x 9-inch baking dish that had been coated with non-stick cooking spray. This was topped with 1/3 of the tortilla strips and then more of the mixture was added. The tortilla strips that were used were a spicy red chilli and a black bean kind of tortilla, rather than the plain flour tortillas. This procedure was repeated until the mixture had been used up. The tortilla strips were placed on top of the dish. Mexican 4 cheese blend was used in each layer as a substitute for the Monterey cheese that was called for.
