    i followed the directions carefully and it was good... but it wasnt worth all that time. i was disappointed because poaching the chicken didnt give it as much flavor as i'd hoped. the mushrooms came out great and so did the sauce, but the chicken was kind of bland and kind of tough...

    this will keep you in the kitchen for a while, but it is outstanding and well worth it. Make two and freeze one.

    I have loved all of Emeril's recipes that I have tried, and this one was no exception. It's kind of like baked nachos. I added pinto beans and cooked them in the broth along with the chicken, and substituted them for the mushrooms in the recipe. I also used fresh tomatoes instead of canned, since they're in season now. Delicious! Lots of spice, but just enough to give it some heat and flavor without going overboard. It's even better the next day for leftovers! Will definitely make again.

    i did a shortcut with the chicken after reading the reviews. used canned white chicken from costco (or use a deli chicken. still simmered the wine-chick broth-herbs without the chicken. and i had a can of rotel in the pantry so i used that instead of the chopped tomatoes and green chiles. left out the mushrooms, sauteed the onions/peppers and made the roux/bechamel in the same pan. used leftover monterey jack instead of pepper jack. the recipe was delish with all of the seasonings.

    This was a delicious meal, however it took me a long time to prepare this dish and the clean up !!!!!!! I definitely would make this again, but when I have a lot of time to spare.

    I loved this dinner, true about the prep time but worth the wait...Husband was not too sure about it, but the dish was cleaned when we finished eating. I did not use the tomato, I used 2 8x8 dishes instead of 9 x 13. next tme I will still us the smaller pans but make one hotter....this is my favorite dish....

    This was so highly anticipated with all of the wonderful ingredients but it just fell short of expectations and really wasn't as good as the reviews indicated. I'm a foodie and love new recipes but this was bland to me, despite the jalapenos and green chilies. I won't be making this again...it took too long to prepare and wasn't worth the effort. Sorry! I usually love Emeril's recipes.

    Loved it so did everyone else in the family. Took a little bit of time but it wasn't difficult to make. My daughter who is 4 enjoyed crushing the chips and layering the casserole. the only thing I did different was cut up my chicken before cooking it and then I didn't have to wait for it too cool at all; I just had to pick a few peppercorns off of it and throw it in the casserole.

    I made a double recipe of this (one to eat, one to share. I poached a whole 4# chicken plus two thighs in water (not stock, which yielded a nice amount of flavorful meat, plus the broth needed for the recipe. Deboning the chicken took a long time; boneless skinless breasts + stock would be a time saver.

    Also, two pounds of cheese per casserole seemed like far too much. I used about half.

    The mushrooms added a nice body and flavor.

    Went down well with a dollop of lime crema.

    Is this supposed to be Emeril's version of King Ranch Casserole? Second question: To those who know KRC, how does this compare?
