PERFECT CHICKEN ENCHILADAS



Perfect Chicken Enchiladas image

I've tried several different chicken enchilada recipes here but they all were lacking in one area or another. After many attempts I finally took the best parts of each and came up with the best recipe yet. NOTE- these come out very firm because I let most of the enchilada sauce evaporate when cooking when the chicken. If you want them gooey, don't let it cook too long.

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 (10 ounce) can enchilada sauce

1/4 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon oregano
1/4 teaspoon salt

Categories     Chicken

Time 1h15m

Yield 16 enchiladas, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 19

3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 1/2 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts
salt and pepper, to taste
2 teaspoons cumin powder
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 teaspoon Mexican seasoning
1 red onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 cup frozen corn, thawed
5 whole green chilies, canned
4 chipotle chiles, canned
1 (28 ounce) can stewed tomatoes
1 cup monterey jack and cheddar cheese blend, shredded
16 corn tortillas
1 1/2 cups enchilada sauce, canned
chopped cilantro
chopped scallion
sour cream
chopped tomato

Steps:

  • Coat large saute pan with oil. Season chicken with salt and pepper. Brown chicken over medium heat, allow 7 minutes each side or until no longer pink. Sprinkle chicken with cumin, garlic powder and Mexican spices before turning. Remove chicken to a platter, allow to cool.
  • Saute onion and garlic in chicken drippings until tender. Add corn and chiles. Stir well to combine. Add canned tomatoes, saute 1 minute.
  • Pull chicken breasts apart by hand into shredded strips. Add shredded chicken to saute pan, combine with vegetables. Dust the mixture with flour to help set.
  • Microwave tortillas on high for 30 seconds. This softens them and makes them more pliable. Coat the bottom of 2 (13 by 9-inch) pans with a ladle of enchilada sauce. Using a large shallow bowl, dip each tortilla in enchilada sauce to lightly coat. Spoon 1/4 cup chicken mixture in each tortilla. Fold over filling, place 8 enchiladas in each pan with seam side down. Top with remaining enchilada sauce and cheese.
  • Bake for 15 minutes in a preheated 350 degree oven until cheese melts. Garnish with cilantro, scallion, sour cream and chopped tomatoes before serving. Serve with Spanish rice and beans.

THE ABSOLUTE BEST CHICKEN ENCHILADA RECIPE YOU'LL EVER TRY...



The Absolute Best Chicken Enchilada Recipe You'll Ever Try... image

I came across this recipe about three years ago on TOH's website. It originally called for 10 flour tortillas (6 inches), but I found my alteration to the recipe to be much better. I have also substituted on occasion pintos for black beans, and used Pace Picante sauce instead of the salsa. This recipe has become a staple at my house.

FAVORITE CHICKEN ENCHILADAS



Favorite Chicken Enchiladas image

This is my mother's recipe and was one of our family favorites growing up. It is now one of my family's favorites. I frequently serve these enchiladas for company and social events and they are always a huge hit. They are mild flavored enchiladas in a white sauce. I serve them with sour cream and green or red chili sauce for anyone that wants a spicier flavor. I frequently substitute 4-5 chicken breasts instead of a whole chicken - they cook faster and are easier to work with. (you need to yield 4-5 cups shredded chicken). To save time, cook the chicken ahead of time and refrigerate it so that it's cooled and ready to go when you put the casserole together.

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 1h10m

Yield 1 9x13 pan, 12-16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 whole chicken, cooked and shredded
1 (10 1/2 ounce) can cream of chicken soup
1 (10 1/2 ounce) can cream of mushroom soup
2 (4 1/2 ounce) cans diced green chilies, undrained
2 (4 1/2 ounce) cans sliced mushrooms, drained
1 (6 ounce) can black olives, drained and sliced
1 tablespoon dried onion flakes
1 lb cheddar cheese, shredded
12 -15 corn tortillas

Steps:

  • Boil whole chicken in a large pot of water until cooked through (approx. 30 minutes). Remove from pot, cool and shred into small bite-size pieces. I frequently substitute boneless skinless chicken breasts (they cook faster and are easier to work with-boil chicken breast for approx 20 mins) - you'll need about 4-5 breasts (you want to yield about 4-5 cups).
  • In a medium bowl, mix cream of chicken soup, cream of mushroom soup, diced green chilies (do not drain), mushrooms (drained), olives (drained), and dried onions.
  • In a 9x13 pan sprayed with no-stick spray, layer as follows:.
  • Layer 1: layer the bottom of the pan with a single layer of tortillas. Tip: I fold and tear the tortillas in 1/2 so that they fit in the pan better. I also dip the tortillas into my soup mixture and coat them with sauce, skimming off the excess with my fingers. A thin layer of sauce on both sides of your tortillas will keep them soft while baking so that they do not dry out and become hard and chewy.
  • Layer 2: Spoon 1/2 of the soup mixture over the tortillas and spread to cover.
  • Layer 3: 1/2 of the shredded chicken pieces.
  • Layer 4: 1/2 of the cheddar cheese.
  • Repeat layers 1-4 above (still coat your second layer of tortillas with the soup mixture).
  • Cover and bake in a 350 degree oven 35-45 minutes, until hot and bubbly and cheese is melted.
  • Serve with sour cream and green or red chili sauce, if desired.
