Ingredients
- 1 Red Onion
- 1 Jalapeño Pepper
- 2 Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts
- 1 Tbsp. Taco Seasoning
- 3 oz. Corn Kernels
- 2 oz. Shredded Cheddar Cheese
- 5 fl. oz. Red Enchilada Sauce
- 6 Small Flour Tortillas
- 2 oz. Sour Cream
Directions
-
Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Thoroughly rinse produce and pat dry. Prepare a casserole dish with cooking spray.
-
Peel and halve onion. Cut halves into ½" dice. Cut a few thin rounds from pointed end of jalapeño pepper for garnish. Stem, seed, and mince remaining jalapeño. Discard seeds if you prefer less spice. Be sure to wash hands, utensils, and cutting board after working with jalapeño. Pat chicken breasts dry.
-
Place a medium non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Add 1 tsp. olive oil and chicken to hot pan and cook undisturbed until browned, 3-4 minutes. Reduce heat to medium, flip, and cook until chicken is browned and reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees, 4-6 minutes. Remove to a mixing bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and rest at least 3 minutes. After resting, shred chicken and combine with taco seasoning. Reserve pan; no need to wipe clean.
-
Return pan used to cook chicken to medium heat. Add 1 tsp. olive oil, onion, and minced jalapeño (to taste) to hot pan. Stir occasionally until beginning to soften, 2 minutes. Add corn and cook until vegetables are tender, 2-3 minutes. Remove from burner. and season with a pinch of salt. Stir in shredded chicken and ¼ the cheese (reserve remaining for topping enchiladas). Set aside and cool 2-3 minutes.
-
Pour ¼ cup enchilada sauce (reserve remaining for topping enchiladas) in prepared casserole dish, coating bottom. For best results, use an 8" square casserole dish. Place one tortilla on a clean work surface. Add ⅓ cup filling to tortilla, roll up tightly (ensure tortilla ends overlap slightly), and place in casserole dish, seam-side down. Repeat for remaining five tortillas. Don’t overfill tortillas. Any leftover filling can be placed in casserole dish around enchiladas or served on the side.
-
Pour remaining enchilada sauce over enchiladas and top with remaining cheese. Spray a piece of foil with cooking spray and place over casserole dish, sprayed-side down. Tightly seal foil and bake 15 minutes. Remove foil and bake until cheese is bubbly, 5-7 minutes. Plate dish as pictured on front of card, garnishing with sour cream and jalapeño rounds. Bon appétit!
