DELICIOUS CHICKEN ENCHILADAS (WITH GREEN SAUCE) RECIPE ...



Delicious Chicken Enchiladas (With Green Sauce) Recipe ... image

My friend made something similar to this a couple years ago and I LOVED it. So I decided to make my own version. It's a no-brainer... especially when you buy the roasted chicken from the store beforehand. I make this for game days or dinners... they are ALWAYS a hit with my family and friends. YUM!

Total Time 55 minutes

Prep Time 30 minutes

Cook Time 25 minutes

Yield 24 enchiladas, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 roasted whole chicken (either bought from the grocery store or home baked)
24 corn tortillas (I like white, use more or less depending on the chicken)
28 ounces green enchilada sauce (I use La Victoria)
4 ounces canned diced green chiles
3 cups Mexican blend cheese (more or less, depending how cheesy you like it)
1 teaspoon basil
1 teaspoon Mexican seasoning (use judgment since chicken sizes vary)
salt and pepper
2 cups vegetable oil (use more or less)

Steps:

  • I HAVE TWO WAYS --
  • **********The First way**********.
  • Preheat oven to 350.
  • Shred chicken into a medium sized bowl (This is probably my least favorite thing to do).
  • Add Mexican seasoning, salt and pepper, basil, and green chiles to shredded chicken.
  • Place oil in a large skillet on medium-high heat.
  • Place 3 tortillas on a paper towel, place in microwave for 20 sec.
  • Immediately, start putting the chicken mixture into the tortilla, roll up, place in oil.
  • Flip over when one side is light brown.
  • Remove from skillet, tilt the rolled tortilla to drain excess oil onto paper towel, place in large pan.
  • Repeat process until all the chicken is gone.
  • Empty the entire Green Sauce on top of the rolled tortillas.
  • Sprinkle cheese on top. Cover entire pan. (I like mine SUPER cheesy!).
  • Lightly season with mexican seasoning.
  • Bake for 20-30 minutes. Cheese should be bubbling and lightly browned.
  • *******The Second Way*******.
  • This method entirely omits the oil and frying.
  • Grease the bottom of the baking pan with Pam.
  • Place 8 corn tortillas on the bottom of the pan.
  • Place half of the chicken mixture on top of that.
  • Pour between 1/4 to 1/2 of the green sauce can onto the mixture.
  • Place 8 more tortillas on top.
  • Place remaining chicken on top of that.
  • Pour rest of the green sauce.
  • Cover with cheese and season with Mexican seasoning.
  • Bake for 20-30 minutes. Cheese should be bubbling and lightly browned.

ADDICTIVE GREEN ENCHILADAS RECIPE - FOOD.COM



Addictive Green Enchiladas Recipe - Food.com image

The cream cheese is the star in these enchiladas... I've never met a person who didn't enjoy these and they are so simple to put together. You can cook your chicken breasts for these anyway you want... I recommend putting a chili powder/garlic rub on them and baking them. You can also boil them in water and garlic salt, but the baking produces tender, flavorful chicken! Toss in some red pepper flakes to the chicken/cheese mixture for some heat!! Can't beat it! Recently I didn't have a can of the green sauce on hand, and had a crisper full of tomatillos! I made Recipe #51630 and WOW it was super. It takes of course a little more work and effort but it was really good. If you like tomatillos, give it a try when you have some extra time on hand.

Total Time 1 hours

Prep Time 20 minutes

Cook Time 40 minutes

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/2 lbs chicken breasts, cooked and shredded
4 ounces diced green chilies
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup onion, diced (saute first if you want a less crunchy onion)
3 cups green enchilada sauce (1 large can, divided, or Tomatillo Sauce)
12 -14 white corn tortillas (small size)
8 ounces cheese, shredded (jack, queso, or any mexican type cheese works)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350.
  • Pour 2 tablespoons green enchilada sauce into the bottom of a 13x9 glass baking dish.
  • In large bowl, mix shredded chicken, green chilis, cream cheese, onions, 1/2 cup shredded cheese, and 2 tablespoons of the green enchilada sauce.
  • Spoon mixture evenly into corn tortillas and roll up.
  • Line up tortillas, touching each other, fitting as many tortillas as you can (but not on top of eachother.).
  • Pour remaining enchilada sauce over rolled tortillas.
  • Sprinkle remaining shredded cheese over sauce and cover the 13x9 with foil.
  • Bake in a 350 degree preheated oven for 40 minutes.
  • Remove from oven and let sit at room temp for 10 minutes before serving.

ENCHILADAS VERDES (GREEN CHICKEN ENCHILADAS) RECIPE ...
Typical Mexican enchiladas arrive rolled up and stuffed, but at my favorite enchilada street stand—the inspiration for this recipe—they're stacked in a messy, luxurious pile, with separate individual layers of corn tortillas, fresh cilantro and onion, green enchilada sauce, shredded cheese and chicken. The whole thing is topped with a blanket of crema and more cheese. It's almost like a deconstructed lasagna. The dish is enough to make you fall deeply in love with Mexico City—particularly when the corn tortillas are homemade, and the green sauce is prepared with a slow-simmering pot of fresh chicken stock.
