Servings: persons

2 cups rice, cooked
2 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts, cubed
2 (10 3/4 ounce) cans campbells Fiesta nacho cheese soup
1 cup milk
1 (1 ounce) packet taco seasoning
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can diced tomatoes
2/3 cup water
1 small onion, diced
2 cups shredded taco blend cheese, divided
2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese, divided
1/2 cup nacho cheese flavor Doritos, crushed (optional)

1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2
Add the chicken, taco seasoning, water and onion to a skillet. Cook until chicken is no longer pink. Drain any excess water.
3
Add both cans of cheese soup and milk to a pot. Stir and heat until just boiling.
4
Pour rice, cheese mixture, diced tomatoes and chicken mixture into a non-stick baking dish. I used diced tomatoes with jalapenos. I used one slightly smaller than 13 x 9. Add 1 cup of the taco blend and sharp cheddar cheeses and mix well. Top with remaining taco blend and sharp cheddar cheeses.
5
Bake for 45 minutes, or until cheese is bubbling and soup mixture thickens.
6
Garnish top of casserole with crushed Doritos (optional).
