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.

DELICIOUS CHICKEN ENCHILADAS (WITH GREEN SAUCE)
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!

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.

Steps:
- Combine chicken, 1/2 of the onion, peppercorns, salt, and bay leaf in a small pot. Cover with water and bring to a slow boil. Cook until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 15 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Transfer chicken to a plate and shred meat with a fork. Discard broth or reserve for another use.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
- Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat; stir in remaining onion. Cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Transfer onion to a bowl and mix in shredded chicken, 1 cup Monterey Jack cheese, and cotija cheese.
- Combine tomatillos, green chiles, cream, cilantro, serrano pepper, egg, and salt for sauce in a blender; blend until smooth.
- Stuff warmed tortillas with chicken mixture. Roll and place seam-side down in the prepared baking dish. Pour all sauce over top. It may seem runny, but it will set up. Sprinkle remaining Monterey Jack on top.
- Bake in the preheated oven until bubbly, about 20 minutes.

CHICKEN ENCHILADAS WITH GREEN SAUCE
The secret to the wonderful flavor of this sauce is the tomatillo, a fruit generally known as the Mexican green tomato. There is no substitute for the tomatillo, since ordinary unripe tomatoes don't have the same characteristics. Originally from the R.S.V.P. section of a November 1978 Bon Apetite magazine. The recipe request was from Don Hernando's restaurant in the Beverly Wilshire Hotel in Beverly Hills, Ca.

- Make the chicken: Place chicken in a slow cooker, pour chicken broth over chicken. Cover with lid and cook on low 5 hours (or until chicken is cooked through). Shred and set aside.
- Make the enchilada sauce: Combine all enchilada sauce ingredients in a blender and blend for a minute or two until everything is very well blended. Pour sauce into a medium non-reactive saucepan and bring just to a boil over medium high heat. Reduce heat and simmer 20 minutes, until sauce thickens.
- Warm the tortillas: Preheat a non-stick griddle over medium heat. Cook corn tortillas on preheat griddle about 20 seconds per side or until pliable. Immediately stack tortillas on a plate after being warmed and cover with a pan lid (this seals in the moisture and helps them become flexible without cracking).
