Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Creamy Chicken Enchiladas.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 400°F (200°C) and give a 9x13 inch baking dish a light greasing to ensure nothing sticks.
Step 2
In a mixing bowl, combine your cubed chicken with creamy sour cream, a sprinkle of salt, and a dash of black pepper.
Step 3
Stir everything together until well blended, then set this delicious mixture aside for a moment.
Step 4
Next, heat some vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
Step 5
Take each corn tortilla and gently dip it into the hot oil for about 10 seconds, just long enough to soften it without making it crispy.
Step 6
Now, it’s time to fill those tortillas! Spoon a generous tablespoon of your chicken mixture right into the center of each tortilla, then roll it up tightly, placing it seam-side down in your prepared baking dish.
Step 7
Once all your tortillas are snugly arranged, sprinkle the drained green chilies over the top, followed by a generous layer of shredded Monterey Jack cheese that will melt beautifully.
Step 8
Pop the dish into your preheated oven and bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the cheese is gloriously melted and bubbly.
Step 9
Your kitchen will soon be filled with mouthwatering aromas, and you’ll be ready to enjoy a comforting, cheesy delight!.
