SUPER EASY CHICKEN ENCHILADAS

I can't remember which magazine I found this recipe in (I was sitting in a waiting room and scribbled it down on scratch paper). I know that I've made some changes from the original recipe, (by making them "suiza" style and playing around with the ingredients). I have since lost my notes (it's been quite a few years). I make this by memory only, so tweak this as you see fit. I have used Cheddar cheese (my favorite), Mexican cheese blend or Monterey Jack to make this, so you choose your favorite. I hope you enjoy this recipe. ***You may like to try Recipe #513631 to make this dish***

Time 55m

Yield 6-8 enchiladas, 3-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

8 (8 inch) flour tortillas
2 -3 boneless skinless chicken breasts (poached and shredded)
1 (10 3/4 ounce) can cream of chicken soup (undiluted)
1/2 cup sour cream (plus more for serving)
1 cup Pace Picante Sauce (plus more for serving)
1 -2 teaspoon chili powder (to taste)
1 cup monterey jack cheese or 1 cup your favorite cheese, divided
1 tomatoes (chopped) (optional)

shredded lettuce (optional)

Steps:

  • Pre-heat oven to 350* degrees F.
  • In a medium bowl, stir together soup, sour cream, picante sauce (I use Pace Medium) and the chili powder.
  • In another bowl, mix together only 1 cup of the sauce mixture with the shredded chicken and 1/2 cup of the cheese.
  • Warm tortillas in a damp paper towel for approx 10 seconds in the microwave.
  • Lay tortillas out and divide the chicken mixture evenly among the tortillas, running the filling down the center of each, roll up and lay them in an 11x8 baking dish.
  • Pour the remaining sauce mixture over the tops of enchiladas, and sprinkle with the other 1/2 cup of cheese.
  • Cover with foil and bake for 30 - 35 minutes, remove foil and bake an additional 5 minutes.
  • Remove from oven, sprinkle chopped tomatoes and scallion over the top of dish (this is optional -- I leave both on the side of the plate on top of some shredded lettuce**). Serve with additional picante sauce and sour cream at the table. (**I like to line each plate with shredded lettuce for color and texture).
  • Enjoy!

SUPER EASY AND YUMMY CHICKEN ENCHILADAS



Super Easy and Yummy Chicken Enchiladas image

My sister Shawn is famous for these enchiladas, and her husband Rob makes the killer margaritas to match. My husband and I like them with Sangria. It's the ideal entree for dinner guests because it can be completely prepared in advance. You can substitute whatever meat you have...ground chicken or turkey, steak, shredded pork, Krab, etc. as well as any creamed soups. I was even out of sour cream and substituted fat free cottage cheese which worked fine. Be creative and please share your ideas here!

EASY DELICIOUS ENCHILADA'S



Easy Delicious Enchilada's image

I think these enchiladas are better than any restaurant I have ever had, I made the recipe myself, very easy and very good! I regularly serve it to guest and it is always a winner. Sometimes instead of chicken I will use carnitas. I always make one extra in a separate dish without meat for my vegetarian sister.
