Main Ingredients
  • 2 cups cooked, shredded chicken Rotisserie chicken works well
  • 1 cup sour cream Creamy dreams in a bowl
  • 1 can (10 oz) cream of chicken soup The little magical help we all need
  • 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese The gooey goodness!
  • 8 small flour tortillas Or corn, if you prefer
  • ½ cup green onions Adds a crunchy pop
  • 1 cup milk For that extra creaminess
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, sour cream, cream of chicken soup, 1/2 cup of shredded cheese, green onions, garlic powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
  3. Take your tortillas and scoop generous servings of the chicken mixture into each one. Roll them up tightly and place them seam-side down in a greased baking dish.
  4. In a small saucepan, combine the milk and the remaining cream of chicken soup. Heat over medium, stirring until smooth. Pour this sauce over the rolled tortillas, and sprinkle the remaining shredded cheese on top.

  2. Let the enchiladas cool for a minute before serving. Garnish with more green onions if desired.

Notes

Cheese Swap: Substitute Monterey Jack with cheddar or pepper jack for extra flavor. Vegetarian Option: Swap chicken for black beans or sautéed veggies. You can prepare these enchiladas ahead of time and refrigerate them until you're ready to bake.
