FASTEST EVER CHICKEN ENCHILADAS



Fastest Ever Chicken Enchiladas image

Provided by Ingrid Hoffmann

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 tbsp unsalted butter, softened
4 cups shredded rotisserie chicken or shredded cooked chicken 2 pounds cooked chicken breasts
12 ounces grated cheddar cheese (about 3 cups)
1 -1/2 cups sour cream
1/2 small red onion, finely chopped
Salt and freshly ground pepper
6 8-inch flour tortillas
2 cups store bought salsa

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9 X 13-inch baking dish with the butter and set aside.
  • Place the chicken in a large bowl. Add 2 1/2 cups of the grated cheese, the sour cream, red onions, and some salt and pepper. Mix well.
  • Place the tortillas on your work surface. Spoon about 1 cup of the chicken mixture onto the center of each tortilla and roll them up. Place the rolls, seam-side down, in the prepared baking dish (it will be a tight fit). Scatter the salsa over the tortillas. Cover with aluminum foil and bake until heated through, 40 minutes.
  • Remove the foil and sprinkle the enchiladas with the remaining 1/2 cup of grated cheese. Return the baking dish to the oven until the cheese is melted and edges of tortilla are just beginning to get crisp, 5 to 8 minutes. Serve hot.

ULTIMATE CREAMY CHICKEN ENCHILADAS



Ultimate Creamy Chicken Enchiladas image

This is like a creamy, cheesy, full-of-flavor-in-every-bite dish. The chicken is tender and moist and the tortillas are soft. The enchilada sauce is tangy and pungent and complements the creamy, rich filling so well. This is also great for entertaining because it can be fully assembled ahead of time or even frozen and cooked later. Serve with toppings such as salsa, sour cream, avocado, cilantro, and jalapenos.

Time 2h

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 ¼ pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
2 teaspoons kosher salt, divided
2 teaspoons chili powder, divided
1 ½ teaspoons ground cumin, divided
12 (6 inch) flour tortillas
2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 medium poblano pepper, seeded and chopped
1 small yellow bell pepper, finely chopped
1 (10 ounce) can diced tomatoes and green chiles (such as RO*TEL®)
½ (8 ounce) package cream cheese
4 ounces sour cream
4 cups shredded Cheddar-Monterey Jack cheese blend, divided
1 cup refried beans
1 (15 ounce) can red enchilada sauce

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
  • Place chicken on a large sheet of foil and season with 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon chili powder, and 1/2 teaspoon cumin. Seal the foil around the chicken and place the packet on a rimmed baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until tender and no longer pink in the center, about 50 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Shred cooked chicken and set aside. Increase the oven temperature to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • While chicken cooks, prepare tortillas. Spread both sides of each tortilla lightly with butter. Heat a skillet over medium heat. Toast each tortilla, about 10 seconds on each side, and set aside.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion, poblano pepper, and bell pepper and cook, stirring often, about 2 minutes. Add remaining salt, chili powder, and cumin and cook, stirring frequently, until veggies are very tender, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low and stir in tomatoes and cream cheese. Cook, stirring constantly, until cheese has melted. Remove from heat and stir in sour cream and 2 cups Cheddar-Monterey Jack cheese blend.
  • Spread about 1 tablespoon refried beans, if using, in the center of a tortilla. Add about 1/4 cup chicken filling and roll up to seal. Repeat with remaining beans and filling. Pour 1/4 cup sauce in the bottom of 9x13-inch baking dish. Arrange enchiladas in a single layer over the sauce. Pour remaining enchilada sauce over the top and spread to evenly coat. Sprinkle with remaining cheese.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until golden and bubbly, about 30 minutes. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving with desired toppings.

SUPER EASY AND YUMMY CHICKEN ENCHILADAS



Super Easy and Yummy Chicken Enchiladas image

My sister Shawn is famous for these enchiladas, and her husband Rob makes the killer margaritas to match. My husband and I like them with Sangria. It's the ideal entree for dinner guests because it can be completely prepared in advance. You can substitute whatever meat you have...ground chicken or turkey, steak, shredded pork, Krab, etc. as well as any creamed soups. I was even out of sour cream and substituted fat free cottage cheese which worked fine. Be creative and please share your ideas here!
