Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups of prepared salsa verde
  • 2 cups (10 oz) of cooked, shredded chicken
  • 3 cups (10 oz) of your favorite shredded Mexican cheese blend, divided
  • 1/4 cup of homemade taco seasoning or 1 packet (1 oz) of prepared taco seasoning
  • 1 can (7oz) of chopped green chiles, drained
  • 1/2 cup of sour cream
  • 8-9 6" flour or corn tortillas

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400° and adjust the oven rack to the middle position.
  • Pour 1/2 cup of salsa verde on the bottom of a 13x9 baking dish. Swirl the pan around or use a spoon to lightly coat the bottom of the pan with the salsa. Set aside
  • In a medium sized mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, 1 1/2 cups of shredded cheese, taco seasoning, green chiles, and sour cream. Mix until everything is evenly blended.
  • Fill each tortilla with 3 tablespoons of the shredded chicken mixture. Roll the filled tortillas into tubes and place them seam side down into the prepared baking dish. Continue filling and rolling the tortillas and place them all seam side down in the baking dish.
  • Pour 1 cup of the salsa verde over the top of the tortillas. Top with the remaining shredded cheese.
  • Place the baking dish into a 400° oven and bake uncovered for 25-35 minutes until the cheese is browned and the sauce is bubbly.
  • Remove the enchiladas from the oven and let them sit 5-10 minutes to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
