Ingredients

  • 3 cups shredded cooked chicken
  • 2 cups enchilada sauce (store-bought or homemade)
  • 12 corn tortillas
  • 2 cups shredded Mexican cheese blend
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • Fresh cilantro, sliced jalapeños

Method

  1. Mix chicken with 1/2 cup sauce, half the cheese, sour cream, and onion.

  2. Warm tortillas briefly in a dry skillet (makes them pliable).

  3. Fill each tortilla with chicken mixture, roll tightly, place seam-down in a baking dish.

  4. Pour remaining sauce over. Top with remaining cheese.

  5. Bake 375°F for 20 min until bubbling. Garnish with cilantro and jalapeños.

What You're Practicing

  • Warming tortillas prevents cracking when rolling.
  • Seam-side down keeps them from unrolling during baking.
