Adding chicken provides protein, while plenty of garlic and onions add flavor.

If your sheets are larger than your dish, cut them or fold them in half so they fit.

The corn adds a nice pop of sweetness, while the rice helps absorb some of the flavors.

A crunchy topping of crushed tortilla chips finishes off this comforting, Southwestern-inspired casserole.

Chicken thighs are tender and flavorful, but chicken breast or leftover chicken will work well too.

Dijon mustard flavors the dish, complementing the salmon and asparagus.
