Preheat the oven to 325°F. Place the butter in the casserole dish and set it in the oven to melt while it preheats.
In a bowl, combine the sharp cheddar cheese and Monterey Jack cheese.
Lay the whole green chilies over the melted butter, covering the bottom of the dish in a single layer. Sprinkle two-thirds of the cheese mixture over the chilies.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, and Bisquick baking mix until smooth. Stir in the diced chilies.
Pour the egg batter over the cheese and chilies. Sprinkle the remaining cheese on top.
Bake for 45 minutes, until the top is puffed and golden and the center is set.
Recipe Tips
The casserole is done when the center no longer jiggles and the top is golden brown; a knife inserted near the middle should come out clean.
Let the casserole rest for 5 to 10 minutes after baking so it firms up slightly and is easier to slice cleanly.
For a spicier version, swap in pepper jack cheese for part or all of the Monterey Jack.
