Tips:

Prep the Chicken: For best results, use boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs. Season the chicken generously with a blend of chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. You can also add a touch of smoked paprika for a smoky flavor.

Make the Enchilada Sauce: The enchilada sauce is the key to the dish's flavor. Use a combination of canned tomato sauce, tomato paste, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, oregano, and salt. For a spicier sauce, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or a few drops of hot sauce.

Assemble the Enchiladas: Layer the tortillas with the chicken, cheese, and enchilada sauce. Roll them up tightly and place them seam-side down in a baking dish. Pour the remaining enchilada sauce over the top and sprinkle with more cheese.

Bake the Enchiladas: Bake the enchiladas in a preheated oven until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the chicken is cooked through. This usually takes about 20-25 minutes.

Serve the Enchiladas: Serve the enchiladas hot, garnished with sour cream, guacamole, salsa, and chopped cilantro. You can also serve them with a side of rice and beans.
