Ingredients
- 1 piece refrigerated pie crust

- 1 cup enchilada sauce
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese

- 0.25 cup diced red onion
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt

Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Lightly grease a tart pan with olive oil or cooking spray and set aside.
Roll out the refrigerated pie crust and gently press it into the prepared tart pan. Trim any excess dough hanging over the edges.
In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, enchilada sauce, diced green chilies, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly to coat the chicken evenly.

In a separate bowl, mix together the cheddar cheese, Monterey Jack cheese, and sour cream until well combined. Spread this cheese mixture evenly over the chicken layer.
Bake the tart in the preheated oven for 20–25 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese mixture is bubbly.
Remove the tart from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes.
Top the tart with diced red onion and freshly chopped cilantro for garnish.
Slice into wedges and serve warm. Enjoy your Enchilada Chicken Tart!
