Poblano Chicken Enchilada Casserole

“I've begun making my enchiladas casserole style, which saves a lot time, not to mention burned fingers. :) However, everyone still raves over my enchiladas, and this recipe recently earned a round of applause when I made them on a skiing holiday. The sauce is actually a modified Alfredo recipe and is also great over fajitas.”

This recipe sounded good..but it came out very bland, no flavor at all..and the sauce was way too thick and flavorless. I will try it again and adjust the seasonings and use a different cheese..I was very dissappointed ..also I don't see any salt or pepper or anything to make the taste POP!

Sorry but we didn't like it. Not sure why but the flavor was not there for us. I did make the recipe as written but it just didn't taste that good for us.

It turned out okay but I wouldn't make it again. The chicken and peppers burned so I would recommend cooking that at maybe medium low, and the sauce took what seemed like forever. I think with some modifications it would have been better but the end result just wasn't worth it.

I had great expectations for this casserole, but was disappointed. I roasted the poblanos (used 3), cut the cilantro in half, and used a good quality cheese (cabot) on top. It was a hot mushy mess. Maybe if you added taco seasoning and didn't use the Tortillas, it would make a good dip?

My wife & I loved this dish. I followed the recipe with the exception of substituting plain yogurt for the sour cream (didn't have any on hand); I wouldn't change a thing. And for those who are wondering, yes, our friends to the south do eat mushrooms as do most cultures.

This recipe is ok. Not one of my favorites, but not nasty by any means. In my opinion it's more work than it's worth.

Great recipe if you add a few things. I cut up then cooked the chicken with peppers, onions and fresh corn, added salt cumin and pepper. The recipe calls for way too much chicken and I only used two large chicken breasts. I then topped it off with a mix of jack cheese and mozarella and the cream sauce. I left out the mushrrooms since the hubby doesn't like them. The family loved it! Will deffinitely make this again!

I had high hopes for this one. I tried to improve it by seasoning and shredding the chicken, roasting the poblanos, and increasing the cilantro sauce by half, but the result was barely edible. Soggy tortillas, WAY too much chicken (so much so that the peppers were completely lost), still not enough sauce, no flavouring or texture that even suggested the thought of enchiladas, and overall a wholly disappointing meal. I wasted a long time in the kitchen and a lot of good ingredients on this. My boyfriend commented that it tasted like something you would make out of leftovers. I won't be making it again.

This is a great recipe!! We loved this. The only things I did differently was use less jalapeno (because my husband isn't supposed to have spicy food) and I forgot to buy mushrooms, so we had to go without. So, I added a little bit of chipotle powder and a little bit of ancho chili powder to the cream sauce because otherwise it would be so plain. I did add extra salt and pepper to the chicken/chili mixture. This was so yummy. I think it is pretty adaptable with adding extra veggies if need be as well. We loved it.
