Ingredients

  • 4 cups shredded rotisserie chicken

  • 3 cups cooked brown rice

  • 2 medium poblano peppers, finely chopped

  • 1 large red bell pepper, finely chopped

  • 1 cup chopped zucchini

  • 1 cup chopped summer squash

  • 1 cup fresh corn kernels

  • 1 (10.5 ounce) can 98%-fat-free cream of chicken soup

  • ¾ cup whole-milk plain strained (Greek-style) yogurt

  • ½ teaspoon ground pepper

  • teaspoon salt

  • ¾ cup roughly crushed yellow corn tortilla chips

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F. Lightly coat a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with cooking spray. Combine chicken, rice, poblanos, bell pepper, zucchini, squash, corn, soup, yogurt, pepper and salt in a large bowl; stir until well combined. Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish; use a spatula to smooth the top.

  2. Top the casserole evenly with tortilla chips. Cover the baking dish with foil. Bake until the vegetables are tender, about 40 minutes. Remove the foil and continue baking, uncovered, until the topping is golden brown and crispy, 15 to 20 minutes. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.

* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
