  I too was skeptical while I was making it, but was pleasantly surprised. This was a tasty recipe. I added tortilla chips instead of tortillas. I don't think the chips added anything and will leave them out next time. I also added a can of Mexicorn and used a rotisserie chicken. - 5/29/11

  A little more watery than I was expecting. Next time I will use tortilla chips or harden the corn tortillas before I put them into the recipe. I used flour this time around and they were a soggy mess when I pulled the dish out of the oven. Still yummy and makes great leftovers. - 1/25/11

  This was one of the first recipes I tried on SP and it was GREAT! It's got me using a lot more of the recipes on here. I was craving for it all week but it sounded more like a Sunday dinner so I made it on Sunday and left it to bakw while I got some chores done after church. I was very impressed! - 5/2/08

  This was excellent. I will definitely be making again! I used more cheese on top, but the calorie count remained reasonable. And hubby loved it, too. - 6/8/12

  A Family Fav!! Named for the south Texas famous "King Ranch!" I have made it several times w/ lots of variations, my mom always used tortilla chips (stale ones work the best). We use Rotel tomatoes (drained), & we like red bell pepper. We serve it over rice, often w/ guacamole. - 11/14/11

  This was very good and easy to make. I didn't have a bell pepper so I used a pablano instead. I used a can of fire-roasted tomatoes. It turned out great! - 9/14/11

  First of all, this is named for the legendary King (not King's) Ranch, based here in Texas, one of the largest, if not the largest ranch in the world. That being said, this is a fabulous recipe, one of my long-time favorites. - 4/10/10

  SO good! I was pleasantly surprised, as I was making it I very skeptical. But my husband & I both loved it! Not sure why it's called King Ranch Chicken... pretty confused about that. Maybe like the brand King Ranch? Who knows! - 2/18/10

  Delicious. I omitted the green pepper and used Southwestern Style tomatoes with green chili and jalapenos and this was fantastic. - 6/29/08

  In re to the King's Ranch Chicken Casserole, especially for RNC, LOVE, AMBER and BETH. This is not the original recipe -- have no idea where this one came from. I have had the original one since around 1970. This name is not even right. As some of you said -- King Ranch is the correct name. - 9/15/14

  I am a vegetarian and I am always looking for healthy meat choices for the family. This looked easy enough so I thought I'd try. NOBODY in the family liked it. I ended up throwing it out because nobody would even eat it. :( I followed the recipe to a "T." - 1/6/14

  Ok, sounds yummy, but why is this called King's RANCH Chicken? I clicked on the recipe thinking I was going to find a ranch flavored chicken casserole. LOL :o) - 12/7/08

  This was excellent. We had fresh canned tomatoes (made by my FiL) and a jar of sliced jalapenos so I used a mixture of that instead of the canned, but it worked out well (albeit very spicy, my fault :)). This works REALLY well with rice. - 12/5/07

  I had to modify due to sodium content, but this was a REALLY GOOD recipe! DH RAVED about it, I really liked it a LOT and DD thought it was too 'spicy'. (I put 2 Tbsp jalapenos --- ooh! She's a lightweight!) Very tasty, very easy! - 11/28/07

  We really liked this. It is soupy when it first comes out of the oven but I found after leaving it for a few minutes the chicken mixture thickened up a bit. We all liked it so it will be repeated here. Thanks for the recipe. - 11/20/07

  We loved this dish. Tossed chicken with cumin, garlic powder and chili powder before cooking. Used diced tomatoes and a can of chopped green chilis. A little FF sour cream on top. Delicious. Also great leftovers for lunch. - 11/18/07

  First made this recipe 30 years ago when I lived in Texas (home of the King Ranch). This is absolutely fabulous!!! I love the substitution of the lowfat soup and I am so happy to have the nutritional values so that I can figure my WW points. Thanks!!! - 11/17/07

  I've made a version of this for years where I add more chili powder, garlic, cumin, and some jalapeno. It can also be made simply adding a can of Old El Paso Green Chili Enchilada Sauce. There are a number of versions floating around...it's a good and filling recipe. - 11/16/07

  I added garlic and used red bell pepper. This is a good recipe for using up extra or cracking tortillas. I topped it with FF sour cream and sprinkled with chopped green onion. My family likes this a lot. - 11/8/07

  yum!!! I added in some frozen mixed vegetables, so probably not technically "King Ranch" anymore, but I needed some veggies and didn't want to eat them on the side! :) - 8/13/07
