Sour Cream Chicken Enchilada Casserole

Having roots in Texas, we love Mexican inspired dishes. While not made with authentic Mexican ingredients, this Tex-Mex casserole is sure to hit the spot. Chicken enchiladas are wonderful, if you have the time, but this one pot dish has all of the elements of cheesy enchiladas without all the work.
One pot meals are one of our favorite things during these dreary winter months. They're warm, full of flavor and work well as leftovers for lunch the next day (if you have any left)!
Chipotle Chile Powder adds a smokiness and underlying heat, while the Mexican Oregano provides a lighter citrus note with subtle hints of lime and licorice.
