Preparation

Step 1

Heat the oven to 350 degrees.

Place the chicken in a bowl and add ½ a cup of sauce to it. Mix it well and set it aside.

If you are using corn tortillas, add enough oil to cover the tortillas into a small skillet. Heat the oil and add the tortillas, one by one, for about 15 seconds per side. Drain them on a paper towel lined plate.

Place about 1 cup of the sauce in a shallow bowl. Add the tortillas, one by one, into the sauce and coat the well on both sides. Add about ¼ cup of enchilada sauce to a 9×13 oven proof dish.

Place the coated tortilla on a plate and add some chicken to the middle. You can add some cheese if you want. Roll the tortilla and place it in the pan. Do this with all of the tortillas.

Add the remaining sauce on top of the rolled tortillas and sprinkle with the rest of the cheese. You can use more if you want.

Place the enchiladas in the oven and bake for about 20 minutes, until the cheese has melted and the sauce in bubbly. Enjoy with sour cream.
