Preparation
Step 1
Stir together first 4 ingredients in medium bowl. Combine chicken, 2 cups cheese, and 1 cup enchilada sauce mixture in large bowl. Spoon chicken mixture evenly down center of tortillas; roll up.
Pour 3/4 cup enchilada sauce mixture in 6-quart slow cooker; arrange enchiladas in layers over sauce, seam-side down. Pour remaining sauce over enchiladas.
Cover and cook on LOW setting 2 hours. Remove lid, and sprinkle with remaining 1 cup cheese. Cover and cook on LOW setting 15 more minutes or until cheese melts. Serve with desired toppings.
Notes:
Not all tortillas are created equal. So, don't be tempted to substitute flour tortillas for corn tortillas - the casserole will turn out too soggy.
