Categories     Main Course

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 16

3 tablespoon unsalted butter
2 tablespoon chili powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
3 tablespoon cornstarch
2 cups chicken stock
1/2 cup tomato sauce
2 teaspoon granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 pound shredded cooked chicken
3 cups shredded cheddar cheese, (divided use)
1/2 cup sour cream
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, (roughly chopped)
10 (6-inch) flour or corn tortillas (fajita size)
Toppings of your choice: Sour Cream, Diced Tomatoes, Chopped Cilantro, Guacamole, Sliced Jalapenos

Steps:

  • In a medium-sized sauce pot melt the butter over medium-low heat. Add the chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, and cumin whisk to combine and "fry" in the butter until fragrant, 30 seconds to a minute.
  • Whisk in the cornstarch and cook an additional minute. Slowly pour in the chicken stock while whisking constantly until combined.
  • Whisk in the tomato sauce, sugar, and salt. Bring to a simmer, whisking occasionally until thickened, set aside.
  • In a large bowl, add the shredded chicken, 1 cup of the cheddar, the sour cream, cilantro, and ¼ cup of the sauce. Stir to combine, set aside.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. In the bottom of a 9x13 baking dish, pour in 1 cup of the sauce, making sure to cover the bottom of the dish.
  • To the side, layout the tortillas and evenly distribute the filling among them, using about ¼ cup of the filling per tortilla.
  • Roll the tortilla around the filling and place it in the baking dish seam side down. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.
  • Pour the remaining sauce on top and smooth it out to make sure all of the tortillas are covered in the sauce. Top with the remaining cheese.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes until the cheese is melted and the dish is bubbly. Let them cool for about 10 minutes in the dish and serve with your favorite toppings.

EASY RED CHICKEN ENCHILADAS



Easy Red Chicken Enchiladas image

Starting with a homemade red sauce, these Tex-Mex enchiladas are faster and easier to make than their Mexican forefathers, but still so delicious. This recipe makes 2 1/2 cups sauce, enough for 4 to 6 individual skillet enchiladas or 1 regular baking dish. Garnish with sour cream and guacamole.

Time 1h

Yield 1

Number Of Ingredients 21

2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons olive oil
½ cup diced onion
½ teaspoon salt, or more to taste
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour, or more as needed
2 tablespoons ground ancho chile powder
2 teaspoons ground cumin
½ teaspoon chipotle chile powder
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
¼ teaspoon dried oregano
1 pinch cayenne pepper, or to taste
1 pinch ground cinnamon
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons tomato paste
2 ½ cups chicken broth
3 (5 inch) corn tortillas
½ teaspoon vegetable oil
⅔ cup shredded cooked chicken
⅔ cup pepper Jack cheese
⅓ cup chopped cilantro
⅓ cup chopped green onions

Steps:

  • Melt butter with olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and salt; cook and stir until onion starts to turn golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in flour, chile powder, cumin, chipotle powder, black pepper, oregano, cayenne, and cinnamon. Cook and stir until fragrant, about 3 minutes. Add tomato paste and mix until fully combined. Pour in chicken broth and whisk until smooth.
  • Increase heat to high and bring sauce to a simmer. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until flavors come together, about 10 minutes. Taste and season as desired. Blend sauce with an immersion blender.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Lightly brush tortillas with oil. Heat a small cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Heat tortillas until flexible, about 30 seconds per side.
  • Cover the bottom of the skillet with a scoop of enchilada sauce. Place a tortilla on top and add 1/2 of the chicken, 1/3 of the Jack cheese, and 1/2 the cilantro and green onions. Spoon on more sauce and repeat layers, finishing with sauce and the remaining cheese.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until cheese melts and sauce is bubbling, 10 to 15 minutes.
