King Ranch Casserole
>From EatingWell:  September/October 1992

6 servings 

1 1/2 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth 
1 cup nonfat milk 
1/2 cup all-purpose flour 
1/2 cup nonfat plain yogurt 
1 14-ounce can diced tomatoes, drained 
1 4-ounce can chopped green chiles, drained 
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro, or parsley 
1 tablespoon chili powder 
1 teaspoon dried oregano 
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin 
1/8 teaspoon salt 
Freshly ground pepper, to taste 
1 1/2 teaspoons canola oil 
1 large onion, chopped 
1 red or green bell pepper, diced 
2 cloves garlic, minced 
2 cups diced cooked skinless chicken 
10 corn tortillas, cut in quarters 
1/2 cup shredded reduced-fat Cheddar cheese 

Preheat oven to 375°F. 
Bring broth to a simmer in a medium saucepan. Whisk milk and flour in a small 
bowl until smooth. Add to the broth and cook over medium heat, whisking 
constantly, until thickened and smooth, about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat 
and stir in yogurt, tomatoes, chiles, cilantro (or parsley), chili powder, 
oregano and cumin. Season with salt and pepper. 
Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion, bell 
pepper and garlic; cook, stirring occasionally, until tender-crisp, about 3 
minutes. 
Line the bottom of a shallow 3-quart baking dish with half the tortillas. Top 
with half the chicken and half the onion mixture. Spoon half of the sauce 
evenly over the top. Repeat layers with remaining tortillas, chicken, onion 
mixture and sauce. Sprinkle with Cheddar. Bake until bubbly, 25 to 30 minutes.
