Chicken Enchiladas
Classic chicken enchiladas smothered in a rich red sauce and melted cheese, perfect for a comforting family meal.
Ingredients
- 2 cup cooked chicken, shredded
- 20 oz red enchilada sauce
- 8 corn tortillas
- 1½ cup Monterey Jack cheese, shredded
- ½ onion, diced
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp cumin
- ¼ cup cilantro, chopped (optional)
- ½ cup sour cream (optional)
- 1 tbsp olive oil
Steps
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
- In a bowl, combine shredded chicken, diced onion, garlic powder, and cumin. Stir in 1/2 cup of enchilada sauce and 1/2 cup of shredded cheese.
- Warm tortillas briefly in a microwave or skillet to make them pliable. Dip each tortilla in the remaining enchilada sauce to coat.
- Place a portion of the chicken mixture down the center of each tortilla, then roll it up tightly. Arrange rolled enchiladas seam-side down in the prepared baking dish.
- Pour any remaining enchilada sauce over the enchiladas. Sprinkle generously with the remaining shredded cheese.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the enchiladas are heated through.
- Garnish with fresh cilantro and a dollop of sour cream, if desired, before serving.
