EASY CHEESY CHICKEN ENCHILADAS IN GREEN SAUCE
I make this or a version of this every single week-so easy! Sometimes I make them with all cheese, sometime with ground beef seasoned with taco seasoning and use a can of red sauce instead of green. The possibilities are endless!!!!!

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. In a large skillet on medium low heat, add enchilada sauce and warm.
- 2. Dip a tortilla into sauce and shake off and place in prepared baking dish. Add a heaping amount of shredded cooked chicken and sprinkle with about 1 Tablespoon or so of shredded cheese. Roll and place seamside down in pan. Continue with the other 5 tortillas, using all of the chicken but reserving some cheese for top.
- 3. Pour the remaining sauce over top of enchiladas and sprinkle with remaining cheese. That's it! Bake for appx. 30 minutes until bubbly and hot. Serve with a big heaping spoonful of sour cream and sliced avocado, if desired. Makes 6 very large enchiladas. I eat one; my husband eats 2; some may eat 3. May serve 2, 3, 4 or 6!
- 4. *Note - To make this very easy, you can substitute shredded rotissiere chicken. *2nd Note - Sometimes I add a splash of heavy cream to the sauce to make it a little creamier.
CHEESY GREEN ENCHILADAS
Mouthwatering Cheesy Chicken Enchiladas...what they are suppose to be! Please feel free to change any ingredient. Sometimes I use 8 oz of cream cheese too in addition to the sour cream..just for a little more creamy goodness! If I have leftover filling I use it for quesadillas.

DELICIOUS CHICKEN ENCHILADAS (WITH GREEN SAUCE)
My friend made something similar to this a couple years ago and I LOVED it. So I decided to make my own version. It's a no-brainer... especially when you buy the roasted chicken from the store beforehand. I make this for game days or dinners... they are ALWAYS a hit with my family and friends. YUM!

Steps:
- I HAVE TWO WAYS --
- **********The First way**********.
- Preheat oven to 350.
- Shred chicken into a medium sized bowl (This is probably my least favorite thing to do).
- Add Mexican seasoning, salt and pepper, basil, and green chiles to shredded chicken.
- Place oil in a large skillet on medium-high heat.
- Place 3 tortillas on a paper towel, place in microwave for 20 sec.
- Immediately, start putting the chicken mixture into the tortilla, roll up, place in oil.
- Flip over when one side is light brown.
- Remove from skillet, tilt the rolled tortilla to drain excess oil onto paper towel, place in large pan.
- Repeat process until all the chicken is gone.
- Empty the entire Green Sauce on top of the rolled tortillas.
- Sprinkle cheese on top. Cover entire pan. (I like mine SUPER cheesy!).
- Lightly season with mexican seasoning.
- Bake for 20-30 minutes. Cheese should be bubbling and lightly browned.
- *******The Second Way*******.
- This method entirely omits the oil and frying.
- Grease the bottom of the baking pan with Pam.
- Place 8 corn tortillas on the bottom of the pan.
- Place half of the chicken mixture on top of that.
- Pour between 1/4 to 1/2 of the green sauce can onto the mixture.
- Place 8 more tortillas on top.
- Place remaining chicken on top of that.
- Pour rest of the green sauce.
- Cover with cheese and season with Mexican seasoning.
- Bake for 20-30 minutes. Cheese should be bubbling and lightly browned.
ADDICTIVE GREEN ENCHILADAS
The cream cheese is the star in these enchiladas... I've never met a person who didn't enjoy these and they are so simple to put together. You can cook your chicken breasts for these anyway you want... I recommend putting a chili powder/garlic rub on them and baking them. You can also boil them in water and garlic salt, but the baking produces tender, flavorful chicken! Toss in some red pepper flakes to the chicken/cheese mixture for some heat!! Can't beat it! Recently I didn't have a can of the green sauce on hand, and had a crisper full of tomatillos! I made Recipe #51630 and WOW it was super. It takes of course a little more work and effort but it was really good. If you like tomatillos, give it a try when you have some extra time on hand.

- Note: If you use corn tortillas, you will want to eat them for one minute on each side in a greased and warm skillet before filling them.
- Once the chicken is cooked, I put this into a food processor and pulse it until it's nice and shredded. Then, return to small skillet and add the taco seasoning with 1/4 cup water and let it simmer for 10 minutes on medium heat.
- Spray a 9x13 baking dish with non stick spray. Then, fill the tortillas again be sure to warm the corn tortillas first if you are using corn to avoid tearing. Fill the tortillas with chicken, beans, and tomatoes. Then, place seam side down in the baking dish.
