Chicken Enchillads

Tonight we had our good friends, Callie and Dane, over for dinner and I decided to stick with the Mexican theme! Next up, an oldie but goodie, Chicken Enchiladas! I am sure many of you have used this recipe before but I have changed a few things and must say, the 2,000+ reviews that it has are completely accurate. Everyone that I have recommended this recipe to have loved it. I hope you will find it well worth your time too! Enjoy!!

• Ingredients:
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 1/2 cup chopped green onions
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 (4 ounce) can diced green chiles
• 1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of chicken soup (the actual recipe calls for cream of mushroom soup but I am not a fan of mushrooms so I go this route!)
• 1/2 cup sour cream
• 1 1/2 cups cubed cooked chicken breast meat (I buy the pre-cooked chicken in the deli. It works a lot better and has a lot more taste than standard chicken breast)
• 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese, divided
• 6 (12 inch) flour tortillas
• 1/4 cup milk

Step One:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Shred the chicken and place into a medium size bowl

Step Two:
Take your green onion and chop them up!

Step Three:
Add chopped onion and butter to a medium sauce pan. Cook until onions become soft. 

Step Four: 
Add the following to the sauce pan: garlic powder, diced green chiles, soup and sour cream!

Step Five:
Take sauce and pour 3/4 of it on top of your shredded chicken and keep the remaining 1/4 for topping.
Mix the chicken, sauce and cheese in your mixing bowl and set aside.

Step 6:
Grease your pan and start to fill your tortillas with the chicken mix. This recipe will make 6 enchiladas and all six of them should fit into a 9x13 pan! 

Step Seven:
After all of the tortillas are filled and placed into the pan, take the remaining sauce and mix it with 1/4 cup of milk. Pour the sauce on top of the tortillas and spread evenly. Top with cheddar cheese and place into oven!! Cook for 25-35 mins (depending on your elevation).

Step Eight:
This step is not even worth mentioning BUT for those of you that need it... Place these puppies on your plate, top with sour cream and salsa and DIG IN!! :)
