Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, at room temperature, plus more for the baking dish
1 rotisserie chicken, shredded (about 4 cups)
1 pound grated Monterey Jack cheese (about 4 cups)
2 cups mild red enchilada sauce
3/4 cup hot sauce, preferably Frank's Red Hot
Eight 10-inch flour tortillas
1/2 head iceberg lettuce, finely shredded
1/2 cup Ranch Dressing, recipe follows
1/2 cup blue cheese crumbles
1 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup buttermilk
2 tablespoons minced fresh chives
2 tablespoons minced fresh flat-leaf parsley
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 9-by-13-inch baking dish.
  • Add the chicken and 2 1/2 cups of the Monterey Jack cheese to a large bowl and toss together. Set aside.
  • Heat the butter, enchilada sauce and hot sauce and in a small saucepan over medium heat until the butter melts. Remove from the heat. Transfer 1 cup of the sauce to the bowl with the chicken. Toss to fully coat.
  • Ladle 1/2 cup of the sauce into the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Spread a heaping 1/2 cup of the chicken mixture evenly onto a tortilla, then roll it up. If you'd like, trim the round ends of the tortilla that are unfilled and reserve for another use. Cut the rolled tortilla into 6 pinwheels. Place each pinwheel cut-side down in the baking dish. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and chicken mixture. Pour the remaining sauce over the tortillas and sprinkle the remaining Monterey Jack cheese on top.
  • Bake until the cheese is melted and bubbling, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, toss the lettuce with the ranch dressing in a large bowl.
  • Sprinkle the blue cheese crumbles on top of the enchiladas. Serve immediately with the salad.
  • Combine the mayonnaise, buttermilk, chives, parsley, garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a medium bowl. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

SPICY CHICKEN ENCHILADAS



Spicy Chicken Enchiladas image

This is a delicious make-ahead enchilada and you can make 2 at once and freeze one for later for the same amount of effort. I must confess, I cut the ingredients listed in half and made one. Once I realized it was more effortless than I imagined I kicked myself for not going ahead with the second pan. I used creamed corn for fun and loved it. I also use my homemade taco seasoning mix recipe (Recipe #390613) in place of store-bought. Recipe courtesy of Family Feasts for $75 a Week, 2009.

Provided by AmyZoe

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 1h5m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
4 lbs chicken, cut into 1 inch cubes (breasts or thighs, boneless, skinless)
4 garlic cloves, chopped
1 onion
3 -4 cups frozen corn or 30 ounces canned corn, drained
28 ounces tomato puree (plus 1 c water) or 21 ounces tomato sauce (plus 1 c water)
1 cup salsa, plus more for serving (spicy)
1/2 cup taco seasoning mix (see my Homemade Taco Seasoning Mix)
8 inches flour tortillas (20)
4 cups cheddar cheese, shredded
sour cream (for serving)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375.
  • Heat oil in a very large skillet over medium-high heat until hot.
  • Add half of the cubed chicken, waiting to stir until chicken begins to brown on one side.
  • Stir chicken once, and let other side brown.
  • Remove cooked chicken from pan, and set aside in a bowl.
  • Repeat with remaining half of chicken, and add to bowl.
  • In the same skillet, cook garlic, onion, and corn, stirring a few times until onion is tender, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Add cooked chicken to pan, and stir well.
  • Pour 1/2 cup tomato puree into each of the two 9x13 inch casserole dishes and spread to coat the bottom of each dish.
  • Add remaining puree to chicken in pan.
  • Add salsa and taco seasoning and bring to a simmer over medium heat.
  • Let it simmer 5 minutes or so.
  • While chicken simmers, put a double layer of tortillas in the bottom of each casserole dish.
  • Tear tortillas as needed to make them fully cover the bottom of each dish.
  • Once chicken mixture has simmered for a few minutes, layer one quarter of the mixture into each casserole dish.
  • Sprinkle 1 cup cheese over chicken in each dish, then add another layer of tortillas.
  • Divide remaining chicken mixture evenly between casserole dishes, and top chicken evenly with remaining cheese.
  • Bake casserole 30 minutes or until bubbly and cheese on top is nicely browned.
  • Let sit 10 minutes before serving.
  • Serve with sour cream and additional salsa.
  • Cover remaining casserole lightly with aluminum foil, label, and freeze up to 6 months.
  • To cook frozen casserole, thaw overnight in the refrigerator and bake until casserole is bubbly, 30 to 35 minutes.
  • You may also cook it frozen, in which case it will need to bake 50 to 55 minutes.
