SOUR CREAM CHICKEN ENCHILADAS

Provided by Lisa Fain

Number Of Ingredients 21

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 Serrano chiles, seeded and diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups chicken broth
2 cups sour cream
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
8 fresh tomatillos, husked and cut in half or one (10-ounce) can tomatillos
Dash of cayenne
Salt
Pepper
1 tablespoon canola oil
12 corn tortillas
1/2 medium-sized onion, diced
2 cups (8 ounces) shredded Monterey Jack cheese
1/2 cup chopped cilantro, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350° F and lightly grease a 9×13 baking dish.
  • Sprinkle the chicken breasts on each side with the salt and black pepper. Heat the oil a large cast-iron or ovenproof skillet set on medium heat. When it shimmers, add the chicken and cook on each side in the oil for 3 minutes. Place in the oven and bake for 30 minutes. When the chicken is done, take the chicken out of the oven and let cool. Then shred with two forks. Keep the oven on, as you'll be using it again.
  • Meanwhile, to make the sauce, in a saucepot on medium-low, melt the butter. Throw in the diced Serrano chiles and cook until soft, about 3 or 4 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Whisk in the flour and cook for 1 more minute. Pour the chicken broth into the pot, and while whisking, cook until the chicken broth has thickened. Stir in the sour cream, cumin, cayenne, and cilantro. Remove from heat.
  • If using fresh tomatillos, place them under the broiler on a foil-lined sheet and cook on each side until blackened, about 4 minutes per side. Place in a blender along with the sour cream sauce and puree into smooth. If using canned tomatillos, skip the broiler step and just place them in the blender with the sour cream sauce and proceed.
  • To make the enchiladas, heat the canola oil in a skillet and cook the corn tortillas on each side a couple of minutes until soft. Wrap in a cloth to keep warm as you continue to cook all 12.
  • To assemble the enchiladas, pour one cup of the sour cream sauce in the bottom of the baking dish. Take each corn tortilla and place in the middle 1/3 cup of shredded chicken, 1 teaspoon of diced onions and 1 tablespoon of cheese (I'm not usually this scientific but if you've never made them before and desire exact measurements this would be it!).
  • Roll the tortillas around the filling and place the rolled tortillas seam side down in the casserole dish. Cover the enchiladas with the remaining sauce and cheese and bake for 25 minutes or until top is brown and bubbling.
  • Serve warm topped with chopped cilantro.

SOUR CREAM CHICKEN ENCHILADAS



Sour Cream Chicken Enchiladas image

The popular "Magnolia Table" cookbooks by Joanna Gaines are full of Texas classics like king ranch, chicken spaghetti and this creamy version of chicken enchiladas. The combination of tart salsa verde (which has tomatillos and green chiles) with cream and melted cheese makes it special; don't use red enchilada sauce here. The cream of chicken soup mixed with the chicken meat makes a super-rich filling, but you can absolutely use an additional 8 ounces of sour cream instead if you prefer.

Categories     dinner, casseroles, poultry, main course

Time 50m

Yield 5 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

Cooking spray
2 (10-ounce) cans mild green enchilada sauce
1 (10-ounce) can condensed cream of chicken soup
1 (8-ounce) container sour cream (1 cup)
4 cups shredded meat from 1 store-bought rotisserie chicken
1 (4-ounce) can diced green chiles
1 (14-ounce) bag grated mozzarella cheese (about 3 1/2 cups)
10 (8-inch) soft flour tortillas
1 tomato, chopped
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1 lime, cut into wedges
Cooked rice (preferably Mexican rice) and seasoned beans (preferably charro beans), warmed, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Position an oven rack in the top third of the oven and heat the oven to 350 degrees. Coat a deep 9-by-13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the enchilada sauce, condensed soup and sour cream. Spread 1/2 cup in the baking dish; set aside the remaining 3 1/2 cups creamy enchilada sauce.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the chicken and chiles (including any liquid from the can); set aside.
  • Sprinkle about 2 heaping tablespoons mozzarella on a tortilla, then add a heaping 1/3 cup of the shredded chicken and chiles. Tightly roll up the tortilla and place it seam side down in the prepared baking dish. Continue filling and rolling the remaining tortillas with 2 tablespoons mozzarella and a heaping 1/3 cup chicken mixture, placing the tortillas in the baking dish as they are filled, pushing the rolled tortillas as needed to fit in a single layer.
  • Pour the reserved creamy enchilada sauce over the filled tortillas. Bake for 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and sprinkle the remaining mozzarella on top. Bake until the cheese is melted, about 15 minutes. If you'd like it to be a bit browner in spots, you can pop it under the broiler for another minute or two.
  • Sprinkle enchiladas with tomato and cilantro and pass with lime wedges for squeezing on top. Serve enchiladas with rice and beans, if desired. Store leftovers in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days; reheat in a 300-degree oven.

Tips:

  • For a creamier dip, use full-fat sour cream and cream cheese.
  • Use shredded chicken that is well-seasoned. You can use rotisserie chicken, grilled chicken, or even leftover chicken from a previous meal.
  • Don't overcook the chicken. Overcooked chicken will be tough and dry.
  • Use a variety of cheeses for a more flavorful dip. A good combination is a blend of cheddar, Monterey Jack, and pepper Jack cheeses.
  • Add your favorite toppings to the dip. Some good options include salsa, guacamole, sour cream, and chopped cilantro.
  • Serve the dip with tortilla chips, vegetable crudités, or crackers.

Conclusion:

Sour cream chicken enchilada dip is a quick and easy appetizer or snack that is perfect for any occasion. It is creamy, cheesy, and flavorful, and it is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make this delicious dip that is perfect for any party or gathering.
