I got this from another board but it is very good.

Preheat oven to 400 degrees

base
1 1/2 pound of boneless skinless chicken breast tenders (I cut mine in bite size chunks)
1 can (4 oz) of diced green chilies
1 can (10 oz) of diced tomatoes w/green chilies (I used the Rotel brand)
Salt & Pepper (whatever amt. you're used too)

In a 8x8 baking dish lay the chicken tenders and top with the diced green chilies and the diced tomatoes w/green chilies. Add salt and pepper. Bake for about 40 minutes (I like mine well done...but you can adjust to your preferred doneness, just make sure to drain off any excess liquid before adding topping) . While chicken is baking...prepare the topping below.

topping
4 oz of cream cheese (softened)
2 large eggs
1/4 cup of sour cream
2 Cups of Shredded Cheese (Mexican 4 cheese blend variety)
1/2 teaspoon of ground cumin

Mix all the above ingredients After about 40 minutes, remove chicken from oven and drain off any liquid. Pour the topping over the top of the baked chicken and spread evenly. Bake for another 10-15 mins. or until topping is set. Optional: Garnish with chilled sour cream, chopped green onions and or avocado wedges.

Thanks nosmokedeb! I'm always looking for new things to try out and this sounds delicious! I'm going to the store tomorrow and get the ingredients. [Smile]

How many carbs does it have?

Well, I didn't make this dish when I said I would (forgot some of the ingredients at the store.. lol), but I did make it about a week ago, and it is VERY good! And EASY! (That's the best part)

I figured up the carb count using exactly what the recipe calls for and it has a total of 37 CARBS!!! WOW!!! I coulda eaten half the dish and not felt guilty! LOL

Needless to say, this dish has been added to my weekly menu. Thanks again, nosmokedeb! [Smile]
