Zubereitung von Chicken Enchiladas

  1. Place 1 whole (about 3-4 lb) chicken in a pot, cover halfway with water, and simmer until tender (approximately 45-60 minutes).
  2. Remove chicken from pot and let cool slightly. Once cool enough to handle, bone and chop the chicken into bite-sized pieces.
  3. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add 1 medium onion, chopped, and 2 cloves garlic, minced. Cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  4. Remove garlic (optional, leave in for stronger garlic flavor). Add the chopped chicken, 1 tablespoon ground cumin, and 1 cup picante sauce.
  5. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  6. Warm corn or flour tortillas on a lightly oiled griddle or skillet until pliable. (About 10-15 seconds per side)
  7. Fill each tortilla with approximately 1/2 cup of the chicken mixture and 1 tablespoon of shredded cheese. Reserve about 2 cups of cheese for topping.
  8. Place filled enchiladas in a greased 13 x 9 inch casserole dish.
  9. In a medium bowl, combine 1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup, 1/2 cup sour cream, and 1 teaspoon cumin.
  10. Pour the soup mixture evenly over the enchiladas in the casserole dish.
  11. Top with the reserved 2 cups of shredded cheese and sliced jalapeño peppers (optional, to taste).
  12. Sprinkle with paprika.
  13. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 20-25 minutes, or until heated through and bubbly. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving.
