CHICKEN ENCHILADAS WITH WHITE SAUCE RECIPE RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Heat oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onion and poblano; cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 4 to 5 minutes. Add cumin and cayenne; cook, stirring constantly, for 30 seconds. Whisk flour and 1/4 cup broth in a small bowl; set aside.
• Add the remaining 1 3/4 cups broth to the pan and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Whisk in the flour mixture and simmer, whisking often, until thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat. Whisk in sour cream.
• Coat a 7-by-11-inch (2-quart) baking dish with cooking spray. Combine chicken, 1/2 cup of the white sauce and 1/4 cup cheese in a medium bowl. Spoon 1/4 cup of the chicken mixture down the center of each tortilla. Roll up and place, seam-side down, in the prepared baking dish. Pour the remaining white sauce over the enchiladas and sprinkle evenly with the remaining 1/2 cup cheese.
• Bake until the cheese is lightly browned and the edges are bubbly, 20 to 25 minutes. Sprinkle with cilantro and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
• Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Fry tortillas (1 at a time) for 5 seconds on each side to soften and make them pliable. Add more oil to pan as needed. Drain between layers of paper towel and keep warm.
• Divide chicken, 10 ounces of Monterey Jack cheese, and onion among the 12 tortillas. Roll up each tortilla and place seam-side down in the prepared pan.
• Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add flour and whisk until mixture begins to boil. Slowly add broth, stirring with a whisk until thickened. Mix in the sour cream and chiles, heating thoroughly but do not boil, stirring occasionally. Pour mixture over the enchiladas.
• Bake in the preheated oven until bubbly and heated through, about 20 minutes. Top with remaining Monterey Jack cheese and bake for 5 more minutes. Garnish with chopped green onions and cilantro.
