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.

LITE N' SPICY ENCHILADAS



Lite N' Spicy Enchiladas image

I made these for the first time after a co-worker of mine asked me if I could make something for him that was mexican, but still easy on his waist line (stupid models). Well, being the nice woman that I am, I told him that for $40 I would make him anything he wanted. Believe it or not, he actually paid me. After making him pay that much money I decided to atleast try to make something half way descent for him, and this is what I came up with. I've never actually tried these myself, but that's only because they never last long enough at my work for me to get one. I take that as a good enough sign to post this recipe before trying it, okay? So, I just hope that you like them as much as my co-workers do! Thanx!
