CREAM CHEESE GREEN CHILE CHICKEN ENCHILADAS RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Spray a 9x13 inch baking dish with cooking spray; set aside.
• Mix the chicken together with 1 cup of the cheese.
• Distribute the chicken and cheese mixture evenly among the tortillas. Roll up and place seam side down in the prepared pan.
• In a large saucepan, melt the butter. Add the flour; cook and stir for 1 minute.
• Add the chicken broth, whisking until smooth. Continue cooking over medium heat until sauce is thick and bubbly.
• Stir in the sour cream and diced green chiles. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Pour the sauce in an even layer over the enchiladas. Sprinkle with remaining cheese.
• Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until golden and bubbly.
• Sprinkle with cilantro just before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a baking dish.
• Bring a saucepan of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook the chicken breasts in boiling water until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 7 to 10 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove chicken to a cutting board to cool.
• Beat cream cheese, garlic, cumin, salt, and pepper together in a bowl. Stir tomatoes, green onion, green chiles, cilantro, and lime juice into the cream cheese mixture. Add 1 cup Cheddar cheese and fold to integrate.
• Shred cooled chicken with a pair of forks into strands; stir into the cream cheese mixture. Spoon about 1/2 cup of the chicken mixture into the center of each tortilla and fold tortilla around the filling; arrange into the prepared baking dish. Top tortillas with remaining Cheddar cheese and green enchilada sauce.
• Bake in the preheated oven until hot and the cheese is melted, about 20 minutes.
