Directions
- Heat the oven to 500°F. Season the chicken all over with the paprika, salt, and pepper and drizzle with the oil on a sheet tray. Bake, flipping once, until the chicken is golden and cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly, then roughly chop. Lower the oven temperature to 350°F.
- In a medium bowl, unceremoniously dump the sour cream, salsa, soup, chilies, and a few dashes of hot sauce.
- Spread half of the chicken into an even layer in an 8-inch square casserole dish. Top with half of the sauce and crush some chips on top. Sprinkle with half of the cheese, then repeat with the remaining ingredients. Bake until the cheese is melted, about 20 minutes. You’re really just heating up the sauce. You can broil for a few minutes if you want color on top.
