From the Ortega website. Good way to use up leftover chicken. I make this often, and serve with shredded lettuce, diced white onion, and diced fresh tomatoes on the side. To warm tortillas, microwave on high power in a microwave-safe plastic bag until warm, about 45 seconds

QUICK AND EASY CHICKEN ENCHILADAS
This is a recipe I got from my sister-in-law. She uses fresh chicken that she boils and shreds, but for simplicity, I use canned chicken. Either way turns out great! You can also make it ahead and freeze until you're ready to bake it for once a month cooking.
