I followed the recipe exactly, but my enchiladas didn't turn out anything like the picture. I'm very disappointed.

I would not recommend this recipe. The enchiladas were bland and the sauce was watery.

I thought the enchiladas were just okay. The flavors didn't really come together for me.

The enchiladas were a bit dry, even though I followed the recipe exactly. I would recommend adding more sauce next time.

The lime chicken enchiladas were a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed them. I would recommend using less chili powder next time.

I love that this recipe uses Greek yogurt instead of sour cream. It makes the enchiladas a little healthier, but still just as delicious.

I added some black beans and corn to my enchiladas for a little extra protein and fiber. They turned out great!

I used rotisserie chicken instead of cooking my own, and it worked out great. This is a great way to save time on a busy weeknight.

I'm not a huge fan of cilantro, so I omitted it from the recipe. The enchiladas were still delicious without it.

I made these enchiladas for a potluck and they were a huge success! Everyone loved them. The lime flavor is so refreshing and the chicken is so tender.

These lime chicken enchiladas were a hit with my family! The chicken was tender and flavorful, and the sauce was creamy and tangy. I will definitely be making this recipe again.
