Creamy Swiss Enchiladas

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Creamy Swiss Enchiladas.

1. Step 1

   To create a delicious salsa verde, start by melting some butter in a skillet over medium heat.

2. Step 2

   Once the butter is bubbling, toss in your chopped onion and sauté it until it becomes soft and translucent, which should take about five minutes.

3. Step 3

   Next, sprinkle in the flour and let it cook for one to two minutes until it releases a lovely, fragrant aroma.

4. Step 4

   Gradually pour in the chicken broth, stirring as you go, then add the chopped green chiles, minced garlic, salt, and cumin.

5. Step 5

   Allow this flavorful mixture to simmer for about 15 minutes, letting all those wonderful flavors meld together beautifully.

6. Step 6

   Once done, remove it from the heat and set it aside to cool slightly.

7. Step 7

   Now, let’s get your oven ready! Preheat it to 350°F (175°C) so it’s nice and warm for your enchiladas.

8. Step 8

   While that’s heating up, grab a bowl and combine your Monterey Jack and Cheddar cheese, mixing them well before setting the bowl aside.

9. Step 9

   In a heavy skillet, pour in about a quarter inch of oil and heat it over medium heat.

10. Step 10

    It’s time to fry your tortillas! Carefully fry each tortilla one at a time, cooking them for about 10 to 20 seconds on each side until they’re blistered but still soft enough to roll.

11. Step 11

    Once they’re done, drain them on paper towels to soak up any excess oil.

12. Step 12

    Now comes the fun part! Dip each tortilla in the prepared salsa verde, making sure both sides are coated.

13. Step 13

    On a clean surface, place about two heaping tablespoons of cooked chicken and sprinkle on about two tablespoons of your cheese mixture down the center of each tortilla.

14. Step 14

    Roll them up tightly and place them seam-side down in a shallow baking dish.

15. Step 15

    Repeat this process until all your tortillas are filled and nestled in the dish.

16. Step 16

    Once your enchiladas are all lined up, generously spoon some salsa verde over the top.

17. Step 17

    Pour in a splash of heavy cream and sprinkle the remaining cheese mixture over everything for that extra cheesy goodness.

18. Step 18

    For a pop of color and flavor, garnish with chopped green onions.

19. Step 19

    Now, it’s time to bake! Place your dish in the preheated oven and let it bake for about 20 minutes, or until the sauce is bubbly and the cheese is perfectly melted.

20. Step 20

    When it’s ready, take it out of the oven and add some olives and cherry tomatoes for a fresh touch.

21. Step 21

    Serve your enchiladas hot, with any leftover salsa verde on the side for dipping.
