Super Easy Chicken Enchiladas image

I can't remember which magazine I found this recipe in (I was sitting in a waiting room and scribbled it down on scratch paper). I know that I've made some changes from the original recipe, (by making them "suiza" style and playing around with the ingredients). I have since lost my notes (it's been quite a few years). I make this by memory only, so tweak this as you see fit. I have used Cheddar cheese (my favorite), Mexican cheese blend or Monterey Jack to make this, so you choose your favorite. I hope you enjoy this recipe. ***You may like to try Recipe #513631 to make this dish***

Time 55m

Yield 6-8 enchiladas, 3-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

8 (8 inch) flour tortillas
2 -3 boneless skinless chicken breasts (poached and shredded)
1 (10 3/4 ounce) can cream of chicken soup (undiluted)
1/2 cup sour cream (plus more for serving)
1 cup Pace Picante Sauce (plus more for serving)
1 -2 teaspoon chili powder (to taste)
1 cup monterey jack cheese or 1 cup your favorite cheese, divided
1 tomatoes (chopped) (optional)
1 scallion (thinly sliced) (optional)
shredded lettuce (optional)

Steps:

  • Pre-heat oven to 350* degrees F.
  • In a medium bowl, stir together soup, sour cream, picante sauce (I use Pace Medium) and the chili powder.
  • In another bowl, mix together only 1 cup of the sauce mixture with the shredded chicken and 1/2 cup of the cheese.
  • Warm tortillas in a damp paper towel for approx 10 seconds in the microwave.
  • Lay tortillas out and divide the chicken mixture evenly among the tortillas, running the filling down the center of each, roll up and lay them in an 11x8 baking dish.
  • Pour the remaining sauce mixture over the tops of enchiladas, and sprinkle with the other 1/2 cup of cheese.
  • Cover with foil and bake for 30 - 35 minutes, remove foil and bake an additional 5 minutes.
  • Remove from oven, sprinkle chopped tomatoes and scallion over the top of dish (this is optional -- I leave both on the side of the plate on top of some shredded lettuce**). Serve with additional picante sauce and sour cream at the table. (**I like to line each plate with shredded lettuce for color and texture).
  • Enjoy!

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my enchiladas turned out dry and bland. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what happened.

These enchiladas were a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved them. He said they were the best enchiladas he's ever had.

I'm not a big fan of chicken enchiladas, but these were actually pretty good. The filling was flavorful and the sauce was creamy and cheesy.

The chicken enchiladas were a bit bland for my taste. I would add more spices to the filling next time.

These chicken enchiladas are absolutely delicious! The filling is flavorful and moist, and the enchilada sauce is the perfect complement. I will definitely be making this recipe again.
