Street Corn Enchilada Bake

This Street Corn Enchilada Bake is a creamy, cheesy casserole packed with all the flavors of Mexican street corn and layered like a simple enchilada bake. Tender rotisserie chicken, green enchilada sauce, Monterey Jack cheese, and sweet corn are layered with mini corn tortillas, then topped with a creamy Southwest corn mixture that bakes into a golden, bubbly finish.
Instead of rolling individual enchiladas, this recipe layers quartered corn tortillas throughout the casserole, making it incredibly easy to prepare while still delivering all the comforting flavors of a traditional enchilada dinner. The creamy filling is rich with green enchilada sauce, sour cream, mayonnaise, Tajín, and shredded Monterey Jack cheese, while the Mexican Style Street Corn and Southwest corn add sweetness and texture in every bite.
The second corn layer creates a unique topping that's creamy, cheesy, and slightly crisp around the edges after baking. This casserole is perfect for weeknight dinners, potlucks, game days, or anytime you need an easy meal that feeds a crowd.

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F.

Notes

Tips

  • Rotisserie chicken makes this casserole quick and easy to prepare.
  • Tajín adds a bright citrusy flavor, so season to your taste.
  • Let the casserole rest before slicing so it holds together better.
  • Freshly shredded Monterey Jack melts more smoothly than pre-shredded cheese.
  • For extra flavor, garnish with fresh cilantro, sliced green onions, or a squeeze of fresh lime.
