Categories     Chicken

Time 35m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

8 corn tortillas
1 1/2 cups cubed cooked chicken breasts
2 cups cooked white rice, cooled
1/2 cup shredded colby or 1/2 cup shredded colby-monterey jack cheese
1 (15 ounce) can black beans, undrained (plain or with jalapeno peppers)
1 (15 ounce) can whole kernel corn, drained
1 (4 ounce) can chopped green chilies or 1 (4 ounce) can chopped fresh roasted green chili peppers
1/4 cup chicken broth or 1/4 cup water

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
  • Wrap tortillas between 2 damp paper towels and microwave on High for 30 seconds.
  • Carefully remove them from the microwave (they will be hot).
  • Place one tortilla in a 13x9x2 pan that has been sprayed lightly with non-stick cooking spray.
  • Place about 2 Tbl. of chicken and 3 Tbl. of rice along the center of the tortilla, then roll it and leave it in the pan seam-side down.
  • Repeat for all 7 remaining tortillas.
  • (The enchiladas should nicely fill the pan from end-to-end, with open space on each side.) Pour the black beans evenly over the top of the enchiladas.
  • Repeat with the corn.
  • Sprinkle the cheese over all.
  • Top with green chiles.
  • Pour the chicken broth or water over all.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until cheese is melted and liquid in pan is absorbed.
  • Serving suggestion: On the table, offer non-fat sour cream, shredded cheese, shredded lettuce, chopped tomatoes, and chopped onion as additional toppings.

I would not recommend this recipe. The enchiladas were bland and boring.

These enchiladas were a disaster. The sauce was bland and the chicken was tough.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my enchiladas didn't turn out as well as I hoped. The sauce was too thin and the chicken was dry.

The enchiladas were good, but I think I would have liked them better with a different sauce.

These enchiladas were a hit with my family! The flavors were incredible and the chicken was so tender. I will definitely be making this recipe again.
