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.

1 1/2 lbs chicken breasts, cooked and shredded
4 ounces diced green chilies

12 -14 white corn tortillas (small size)

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.).

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.
