Cook Time 30 minutes

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

12 corn tortillas
vegetable oil for pan-frying
3 cooked boneless skinless chicken breast halves, shredded
12 ounces shredded Monterey Jack cheese, divided
¾ cup minced onion
¼ cup butter
¼ cup all-purpose flour
2 cups chicken broth
1 cup sour cream

  • 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.

GREEN CHILE CHICKEN ENCHILADAS RECIPE - FOOD.COM
I live in southern New Mexico. Our cuisine is far different than that of northern New Mexico (ie, Santa Fe, Taos, etc.). Las Cruces, or Hatch really, is the chile growing capital of the world. Whenever we have pot lucks at work or partys, my green chile enchiladas are always requested. If it is going to be an especially large group, I leave out the chicken and just make several trays of green chile cheese enchiladas. Just for clarification, "CHILI' is that soup dish made with hamburger meat and beans that is popular in Texas, while "CHILE" is the spicy vegitable that makes mexican food so great. Green chile and red chile come from the same plant. Green chile is harvested when ripe, and red chile is from chile left on the vine or tied up in RISTRAS to dry out and become red chile. When I was in college in Odessa, they didn't have descent green chile, they used tomatillos instead. I did not like that at all, so I substituted fresh jalapenos instead. They were hot, but my west Texas buddies ate them all up (of course sweating out the jalapenos the whole time).
