Chicken Enchiladas

This classic recipe for Chicken Enchiladas is full of flavor and perfect for a comforting meal. The combination of tender chicken, creamy sour cream, and melted Monterey Jack cheese wrapped in soft corn tortillas will quickly become a family favorite.

Ingredients:

• 2 cups cubed cooked chicken
• 1 cup sour cream
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 pinch ground black pepper
• cup vegetable oil for frying
• 12 (5 inch) corn tortillas
• 1 (4 ounce) can chopped green chilies, drained
• 2 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese

Directions:

1. Preheat your oven to 400F (200C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish and set it aside.
2. In a mixing bowl, combine the cubed chicken, sour cream, salt, and black pepper. Stir everything together and set aside.
3. Heat the vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, dip the corn tortillas one at a time into the oil, allowing them to soften for about 10 seconds each. Remove and set them aside on a paper towel to drain excess oil.
4. Once the tortillas have cooled slightly, spoon a heaping tablespoon of the chicken mixture onto the center of each tortilla. Spread it out evenly down the middle.
5. Roll each tortilla into a cylinder, ensuring the seam side is down, and place them in the prepared baking dish.
6. Once all tortillas are rolled and placed in the dish, sprinkle the drained green chilies over the top of the enchiladas. Then, top with the shredded Monterey Jack cheese.
7. Bake the enchiladas in the preheated oven for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the cheese has melted and the enchiladas are hot throughout.
