Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Cooked shredded chicken breast
- 0.5 cup Fat-free plain Greek yogurt
- 1 cup Reduced-fat shredded Mexican-style cheese
- 1.5 cups Red enchilada sauce
- 8 pieces Small whole wheat tortillas
- 1 teaspoon Cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Chili powder
- 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh cilantro (optional for serving)
- 1 as needed Nonstick cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked shredded chicken, Greek yogurt, 0.5 cups of the shredded cheese, cumin, garlic powder, and chili powder. Mix until well combined.
Spread 0.5 cups of red enchilada sauce evenly across the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
Spoon about 3 tablespoons of the chicken mixture onto the center of each tortilla. Roll each tortilla tightly and place seam-side down in the baking dish.
Pour the remaining 1 cup of enchilada sauce evenly over the rolled tortillas, ensuring they are fully covered.
Sprinkle the remaining 0.5 cup of shredded cheese over the top.
Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 15 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the enchiladas are heated through.
Garnish with chopped fresh cilantro if desired and serve warm.
