GREEN CHICKEN ENCHILADAS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Lightly oil a 9 x 13 baking dish or coat with nonstick spray. Heat canola oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion, and cook, stirring frequently, until translucent, about 2-3 minutes. Stir in garlic, oregano and cumin until fragrant, about 1 minute. Remove from heat; stir in green chiles. In a large bowl, combine green chile mixture, chicken, 1/3 cup salsa verde and cilantro. Stir in 1 1/2 cups cheese; season with salt and pepper, to taste. To assemble the enchiladas, lay tortilla on a flat surface and spoon 1/2-3/4 cups of the chicken mixture in the center. Roll the tortilla and place seam side down onto prepared baking dish. Repeat with remaining tortillas and chicken mixture. Top with remaining salsa verde and remaining 1 1/2 cups cheese. Place into oven and bake until bubbly, about 35-40 minutes. Serve immediately, topped with dollops of sour cream.

GREEN CHILI ENCHILADAS

Steps:

• Cook the ground beef, and saute onions until the meat is brown, about 15 minutes. Drain the fat. Combine with chili powder, salt and pepper. Reserve 1 cup cheese in a 1-quart freezer bag to use when serving. Spoon enough meat mixture and cheese on each tortilla to cover a third of it. Roll tortilla beginning at the filled edge. Place seam side down in a 13x9x2-inch baking dish treated with nonstick spray. When tortillas are completed, combine soup, sour cream, and green chilies to make a sauce; pour over tortillas. Cover dish with foil and freeze with bag of cheese taped to it.
• To prepare for serving, thaw enchiladas and cheese. Bake uncovered in a preheated 375ºF oven for 20 to 25 minutes. The last 10 minutes sprinkle the remaining cheese on top.

ADDICTIVE GREEN ENCHILADAS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350.
• Pour 2 tablespoons green enchilada sauce into the bottom of a 13x9 glass baking dish.
• In large bowl, mix shredded chicken, green chilis, cream cheese, onions, 1/2 cup shredded cheese, and 2 tablespoons of the green enchilada sauce.
• Spoon mixture evenly into corn tortillas and roll up.
• Line up tortillas, touching each other, fitting as many tortillas as you can (but not on top of eachother.).
• Pour remaining enchilada sauce over rolled tortillas.
• Sprinkle remaining shredded cheese over sauce and cover the 13x9 with foil.
• Bake in a 350 degree preheated oven for 40 minutes.
• Remove from oven and let sit at room temp for 10 minutes before serving.

SIMPLE PERFECT ENCHILADAS

Steps:

• In a saucepan over medium-low heat, combine the canola oil and flour. Whisk together and allow to bubble for 1 minute. Pour in the red sauce, chicken broth, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer while you prepare the other ingredients.
• While the sauce is simmering, brown the ground beef with the onions in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Drain the fat, add the salt and stir to combine. Turn off the heat and set aside.
• In a small skillet over medium heat, heat some canola oil. Lightly fry the tortillas just until soft. Do not crisp. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate. Repeat until all the tortillas have been fried.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Spread 1/2 cup of the sauce in the bottom of a 9- by 13-inch baking dish. Next, one at a time, dip each tortilla into the sauce. Set the sauce-soaked tortilla on a plate. Place on some of the meat mixture, chilies, green onions and black olives. Top with a generous portion of grated Cheddar. Roll up the tortilla to contain the filling inside.
• Place the tortilla seam side down in the baking dish. Repeat with the rest of the tortillas and pour the remaining sauce over the top. End with a generous sprinkling of cheese and any other bits of chiles, green onions or olives you have left over from the filling.
• Bake the enchiladas for 20 minutes, or until bubbly. Sprinkle chopped cilantro over the top and serve.

EASY GREEN CHILE ENCHILADAS

Steps:

• In a small skillet, saute the onions with the butter over medium-low heat until the onions are nice and golden brown.
• In a small saucepan, combine the green enchilada sauce with the green chilies and heat until very warm.
• In the microwave or in the oven (on a baking sheet), melt some cheese all over the top of each tortilla so that it covers most of the surface area.
• To serve, stack three cheesy tortillas on top of one another. Spoon green sauce over the top and add store-bought salsa, sour cream and cilantro as needed. Delish and so, so easy!

LOFING'S LEGENDARY GREEN ENCHILADAS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Take all ingredients out and form an assembly line near the stove and place an empty plate and a lasagna pan on the counter. Arrange the following ingredients near the plate: enchilada sauce, chicken, cheese, sour cream, green chilies. Spread about 1/2 cup of enchilada sauce, or enough to coat, in the bottom of the lasagna pan. In a skillet big enough to fit a tortilla, warm the milk over low heat (but don't let it scorch - it should just be warm to the touch). Run one tortilla through the warm milk and then place it on the plate. Spread a small palmful of chicken - about 1/4 cup - toward the top of the tortilla and top with a sprinkling of cheese and a dollop of sour cream. Wrap up the tortilla like a burrito and place in the lasagna pan. Repeat these steps until the pan is full. Top with enchilada sauce - enough to cover the tortillas, but not so much that they're swimming in sauce (you may have sauce left over). Sprinkle the remainder of the cheese on top of the enchiladas and top with green chilies. Cover the pan with foil and bake for 45 minutes.
