EASY CHICKEN ENCHILADAS
Did you recognise I’m half Mexican? Because of that I’ve discovered learn how one can make so many Mexican recipes, considered one of these being today’s  Green Chile Chicken Enchiladas (we for sure love enchiladas and have types for Red Cheese Enchiladas and Beef Enchiladas as well).

Not merely are enchiladas so basic but they're so nice and are successful at any function! I also like that they're basic to make in mass amounts and also are nice to make and freeze for later.

This recipe merely calls for simply a number of ingredients, including:
corn tortillas
shredded chicken
sour cream
green chiles/chilis
cheese
salt & pepper
enchilada sauce – Las Palmas Mild Green Chili Sauce is our favorite, but we also love homemade!
I normally have all these foods reachable so we make them fairly often. I love giving these enchiladas (frozen) to new mothers so they have a basic and delicious dinner for his or her families.

HOW TO MAKE CHICKEN ENCHILADAS:
Making this hen enchilada recipe is simple! Just comply with these basic steps to make this easy, tacky dinner recipe!

Tortillas. Bring enchilada sauce to a boil after which take away from heat. Dip every tortilla into heated sauce for simply a number of seconds to soften. Place the softened tortilla within the baking dish and spoon 1/3 cup of the hen combination and 2 tablespoons of sour cream down the middle (NOTE: The squeeze sour cream programs work huge for this!)

Roll & Bake. Roll up the tortilla and make certain it’s seam-side down within the baking dish. Top with shredded cheese and bake for about 20 minutes.

Make ahead. Just make the enchiladas as advised and hide with foil or saran wrap and area within the fridge for as much as 24 hours in advance. If you desire these to be even better, we mean taking the extra sauce and putting in an air-tight container and pouring this on and alongside with the cheese earlier than storing.

Freeze. We LOVE to freeze these enchiladas and save for later. In fact, we generally double the batch after which devour one and freeze the relaxation for one other night. To freeze these, we mean making them in a disposable pan, masking tightly with foil and putting in a freezer-safe bag. When accomplished this way, they'll final within the freezer for a number of month.

To cook, we permit the enchiladas thaw within the fridge over nighttime time and prepare dinner for about 25 minutes.

Reheat. If kept properly, enchiladas can final within the fridge for as much as four days. We generally reheat them within the microwave, but you may also reheat on a low warmth within the oven.

ADDITIONAL TIPS
Substitutions: Swap the corn tortillas with equally sized flour tortillas. You don't ought to dip flour tortillas in sauce earlier than rolling. Substitute the sour cream on your favourite plain yogurt.

Additions: Add olives, diced onions, sliced jalapenos, cilantro, salsa, chili peppers, black beans, corn

Chicken: Use canned hen or a rotisserie hen and shred with fork. Another concept is to preserve shredded hen within the freezer to make use of on your favourite recipes.

Cheese: Using a other cheese mix can genuinely switch up the flavor. Try a mexican blend, grated marble colby jack, or a cheddar and pepper jack blend, 

Softening the tortilla with out dipping or frying: warm tortillas up the microwave or on a pan within the oven. When they're simply warm preserve them wrapped in a thick kitchen towel or a tortilla warmer.
