CHEESY TAMALE CHICKEN 
2 c. cut up cooked chicken or turkey
1/2 c. chopped onion
1 (4 oz.) can chopped green chilies, drained
2 c. shredded Monterey Jack cheese (8 oz.)
1 c. shredded cheddar cheese (optional)
1 (12 oz.) can Mexi-corn, drained
1 c. Bisquick
1 c. milk
1/2 tsp. salt
3 eggs, separated

Grease rectangular baking dish, 11 x 7 x 1 1/2 inches. Layer chicken or turkey, onion, chilies, cheese(s) and corn in dish. Beat Bisquick, milk, salt, and egg yolks. Beat egg whites in large bowl until stiff; fold in egg yolk mixture. Pour over corn. Bake at 350 degrees until knife inserted in center comes out clean, about 35 minutes. Makes 8 servings.

I use cheddar cheese in addition to the Monterey Jack cheese as I have found out that it greatly adds to the flavor.
