Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Cooked shredded chicken
- 2 cups Green enchilada sauce (or red, if preferred)
- 8 pieces Flour or corn tortillas
- 1.5 cups Shredded Mexican cheese blend
- 4 ounces Canned diced green chilies (optional)
- 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh cilantro (optional, for garnish)
- 0.5 cup Sour cream (optional, for serving)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked shredded chicken with 1/2 cup of enchilada sauce and the diced green chilies, if using.
Spoon about 2-3 tablespoons of the chicken mixture onto the center of each tortilla. Roll each tortilla tightly and place it seam-side down in the prepared baking dish.
Pour the remaining enchilada sauce evenly over the rolled tortillas, making sure they are fully covered.
Sprinkle the shredded Mexican cheese blend generously on top of the sauce-covered tortillas.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 2 minutes. Garnish with chopped fresh cilantro, if desired.
Serve hot with sour cream on the side and enjoy!
