Chicken Enchiladas
This is becoming another of my favorite comfort foods. It looks great on a plate with green beans and pineapple. You'll have to trust me on that, I completely forgot to take a picture of the end product. I found it on Allrecipes.com and adapted it to what I had on hand. Go ahead and make your own additions or substitutions and then tell me how yours turned out.
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon butter or oil
- 1/2 cup chopped green onions
- 1 clove garlic
- 1 tsp cumin
- Pinch of red pepper flakes
- 1 tsp lime or lemon juice
- 1/4 cup of chopped green or red pepper
- 1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of chicken soup
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/2 tsp cumin
- 1/2 tsp oregano
- 1/2 cup salsa
- 2 cups cubed or shredded cooked chicken breast meat
- 1 cup shredded 4 cheese Mexican blend, divided
- 6 (12 inch) flour tortillas
- 1/4 cup milk
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a large baking dish.
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter and saute the green onion, garlic and peppers until tender (about 3 to 4 minutes). Add the cream of mushroom soup and sour cream. Mix well.
Reserve 3/4 of this sauce and set aside. To the remaining 1/4 of the sauce in the saucepan, add the chicken, salsa, cumin, red pepper flakes, oregano, lemon juice and 1/2 cup of shredded Cheddar cheese. Stir together.
Fill each flour tortilla with the chicken mixture and roll up. Place seam side down in the prepared baking dish.
In a small bowl combine the reserved 3/4 of the sauce with the milk. Spoon this mixture over the rolled tortillas and top with the remaining 1/2 cup of shredded Cheddar cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until cheese is bubbly.
