Steps:
- Step One
- Begin by preheating your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Next, place the cream cheese and salsa in a large saucepan and heat over medium heat, stirring until the cream cheese is melted and it's blended with the salsa.
- Next, stir the chicken and green chilis into the cream cheese mixture and remove the pan from heat.
- Step Two
- Pour 1/2 a cup of the enchilada sauce into a 13×9-inch baking pan and swirl the pan around until the entire bottom is covered with sauce.
- Next, spoon approximately 1/3 a cup of the chicken mixture onto a tortilla, roll it up, and place it seam side down in the sauce covered pan. Continue to do this until you've filled all 8 tortillas.
- Next, cover with the remaining enchilada sauce and sprinkle with cheese.
- Step Three
- Finally, cover the pan with aluminum foil and bake for 20 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the enchiladas are heated throughout.
- Take out of the oven and serve!
KID-FRIENDLY ENCHILADAS
To warm her kids up to spicy foods, Shirley Bomgaars diluted salsa with tomato soup to use in quick and easy enchiladas. Now, for fuller flavor, she's upped the salsa ratio and uses tomato sauce instead of soup. For a hearty variation, add cooked ground beef or turkey to the filling.
