This Dorito Casserole Is Such a Fun Dinner!
I’ve tested a lot of dinner ideas, and this one is seriously a keeper. As a mom of two, I know how nice it is to have a dinner that’s easy, fun, and a guaranteed hit at the table. And yes, this chicken dorito casserole is exactly that!
Back-to-school season is always a little wild in our house. I’m constantly reaching for quick and comforting meals that the kids get excited about, and this Dorito casserole has officially joined the lineup.
This easy dinner is cheesy, crunchy, packed with flavor, and comes together in just 30 minutes.
I mean, Doritos for dinner?! You read that right! Such a fun dinner for a busy weeknight.
And I love that this Dorito chicken casserole is easy to switch up. You can use ground beef or turkey instead of chicken, skip the beans if your kids aren’t fans, or add veggies you already have on hand.
Easy, cheesy, crunchy, and fun. What more could you want from a weeknight dinner?! 😊
For another cozy chicken dinner, my Chicken Broccoli Casserole is another one to save. ❤️

Dorito Casserole Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 14.5-ounce bag Nacho Cheese Doritos
- 3½ cups shredded chicken
- 1 15-ounce can pinto beans, drained
- 1 12-ounce bag frozen corn
- 8 ounces taco blend cheese, divided
- 1 10-ounce can diced tomatoes, drained
- 1 4-ounce can green chiles
- 1 10.75-ounce can cream of chicken soup
- 8 ounces sour cream
- ½ packet taco seasoning
- Chopped cilantro, for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- In a large bowl, mix together the shredded chicken, corn, tomatoes, pinto beans, green chiles, cream of chicken soup, sour cream, and half of the cheese.
- Add in the taco seasoning and mix together well.
- Pour half of the bag of Doritos into the baking dish and crush them with your hands to create an even layer.
- Spread the chicken mixture evenly over the Doritos. Bake for 20 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and add the remaining Doritos on top. Sprinkle with the remaining cheese and bake for another 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted.
- Top with chopped cilantro and serve.
Notes
- Make it spicy: Use spicy Doritos or add hot sauce if you want a little extra kick.
- Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- Reheating: Reheat leftovers in the oven or microwave. The Doritos will soften after storing, but the casserole will still be flavorful.
