Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Cheesy Chicken Enchiladas with Green Chiles.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C) and give a large baking dish a light greasing to ensure your delicious creation doesn’t stick.
Step 2
In a medium saucepan, melt some butter over medium heat, letting its rich aroma fill your kitchen.
Step 3
Toss in the chopped green onions and sauté them until they’re tender, which should take about 3 to 4 minutes.
Step 4
Next, sprinkle in some garlic powder for that extra flavor kick, then add in the creamy condensed mushroom soup, diced green chiles, and sour cream.
Step 5
Stir everything together until it’s beautifully combined.
Step 6
Now, take a moment to reserve about three-quarters of this luscious sauce in a separate bowl and set it aside for later.
Step 7
To the remaining sauce in the pan, add the cubed chicken and half a cup of shredded Cheddar cheese.
Step 8
Stir it all together until the cheese melts and the mixture is perfectly blended.
Step 9
Now comes the fun part! Grab each flour tortilla and fill it with the savory chicken mixture, rolling it up tightly like a little gift.
Step 10
Place these rolled tortillas seam-side down in your prepared baking dish, creating a delightful layer of goodness.
Step 11
Take the reserved sauce and mix it with a splash of milk, then pour this creamy goodness over the rolled tortillas.
Step 12
Don’t forget to sprinkle the remaining half cup of Cheddar cheese on top for that irresistible cheesy finish.
Step 13
Pop the dish into your preheated oven and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden, filling your home with an inviting aroma that will have everyone eagerly waiting for dinner.
Step 14
Enjoy your delicious creation!.
