Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease an 11x15-inch baking dish.
- Place the chicken breasts in a saucepan with enough water to barely cover; bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until the chicken is no longer pink in the center, about 15 minutes. Remove from the pan, drain, and shred with two forks. Place the shredded chicken into a bowl and mix with 8 ounces of Colby-Monterey Jack cheese and canned green chilies.
- Spoon about 3 tablespoons of chicken mixture in a line down the center of each tortilla and fold the tortilla in half, enclosing the filling. Starting at the filled side, roll the folded tortilla into a cylinder. Place the rolls into the prepared baking dish with the seam sides down.
- In a bowl, whisk together the soup, half-and-half, chicken broth, and about 1/3 of the 2nd package of shredded Colby-Monterey Jack cheese. Pour the sauce over the enchiladas, sprinkle remaining Colby-Monterey Jack cheese over the casserole, and let stand for 10 to 15 minutes.
- Bake in the preheated oven until bubbling and the cheese topping is melted and beginning to brown, about 25 minutes.

GREEN CHICKEN ENCHILADAS
This is one of my favorite ways to reinvent rotisserie or leftover chicken. This weeknight favorite is excellent if you're a meal prepper, and the homemade tomatillo salsa is awesome even on its own served with tortilla chips.

Steps:
- Make the tomatillo salsa: Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the tomatillos, jalapeños, and 1/2 cup water. Bring to a boil; reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer until the tomatillos are softened, about 10 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a food processor or blender. Add the lime juice and cilantro. Process until the mixture is smooth. Season to taste with salt, pepper and sugar.
- For the enchiladas: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Coat a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. Spoon a little of the tomatillo salsa in the bottom of the dish.
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion, garlic and cumin and cook until the onion is tender, about 5 minutes. Combine the onion mixture, chicken, queso fresco, sour cream and 2 cups Monterey Jack in a large bowl.
- Wrap the tortillas in a damp paper towel and microwave on high for 1 minute to soften. Divide the chicken filling evenly among the tortillas and roll up, burrito-style. Arrange in the prepared baking dish. Pour the remaining salsa on top and sprinkle with the remaining 1 to 2 cups Monterey Jack cheese.
- Bake until the cheese is browned and bubbly and the enchiladas are warmed through, 30 to 35 minutes. Garnish with queso fresco, cilantro and red onion, if desired.
CHICKEN ENCHILADAS
This Mexican recipe came to The Times in 2002 by way of Amanda Hesser. It is a simply prepared casserole of shredded chicken rolled in corn tortillas underneath a mild, seed-speckled tomatillo sauce. Crumbled queso añejo, a sharp white cheese, is sprinkled over the top before it is baked until the cheese melts and the entire dish is heated through. You could serve it with rice and a medley of steamed beets, cauliflower and carrots, as a cook in Mexico might, but a crisp green salad would be welcome, too. (After reading several comments from readers who felt the sauce needed to be doubled, we retested the recipe and agreed. We've updated the amounts accordingly.)

Steps:
- Bring a pan of salted water to a simmer and poach the chicken over low heat until just cooked through, about 9 minutes. Remove to a bowl. Let cool. With your fingers, finely shred the chicken. Lightly season with salt, toss to mix and set aside.
- Meanwhile, make the sauce. Cut the tomatillos in half. Heat the oil in a skillet large enough to fit the tomatillos in 1 layer. When the oil shimmers, add the chopped onion and jalapeño and sauté until the onion is softened at the edges. Add the tomatillos, season with salt and continue cooking until wilted. Turn off the heat and let cool for a few minutes.
- Pour the tomatillos into a food processor or blender and blend until smooth. Add the cilantro. Adjust the seasoning. Pour the sauce into a shallow bowl.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 2-quart baking dish and spread a little sauce on the bottom. Working with 1 tortilla at a time, soften each in a dry, hot skillet for about 8 seconds per side, then coat lightly with sauce. Lay each tortilla on a plate and sprinkle about 1/3 cup of shredded chicken in the middle and roll into a cylinder. Repeat, lining up tortillas tightly in the dish.
- Spread the rest of the sauce over the tortillas and sprinkle with queso añejo. Cover the dish with aluminum foil and place in the oven. Bake until heated through, about 15 minutes. Remove the foil and bake 10 minutes longer, until the queso añejo is melted. Dollop with crema, garnish with onion rings and serve with additional crema.
