Source: L'il Luna Website
Prep time: 15 minutes
Cook time: 20 minutes
Serves 4 people
Ingredients
- 2 cups chicken, (cooked and shredded)
- 2 cups Colby jack cheese, (shredded)
- 1 (19-ounce) can green chile enchilada sauce
- 1 cup sour cream
- 8 corn tortillas
- 1 (4 1/2-ounce) can can chopped green chiles
- Salt and pepper to taste
Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
-
In a small bowl, combine chicken, 1 cup of cheese, green chiles, salt, and pepper.
-
In a small skillet, bring enchilada sauce to a boil. Remove from heat.
-
Dip each tortilla into the heated sauce for a few seconds to soften.
-
Spoon ⅓ cup of chicken mixture and 2 tablespoons sour cream down the center for each tortilla (I usually put the sour cream in a sandwich bag and cut the bottom tip which makes it easier to squirt right down the center).
-
Roll the tortilla and place seam-side down in 8×8 (or 9×9) inch baking dish.
-
Repeat with remaining tortillas. Pour the remaining heated enchilada sauce over the top. Sprinkle with the remaining 1 cup of cheese.
-
Bake for 20 minutes.
