Como fazer Lime Chicken Enchiladas

In a medium stockpot, combine 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts, 1 cup dry white wine, 2 cups chicken broth, 1 tsp black pepper, 2 tsp dried oregano, 2 tsp kosher salt, juice from 1 1/2 limes, and enough water to fully submerge the chicken.
Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until chicken is cooked through (about 20-25 minutes).
Remove chicken from broth and let cool for 15 minutes. Reserve broth for another use if desired.
Shred chicken into small pieces.
In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 cup sour cream, 1/2 cup half-and-half, 1/2 tsp kosher salt, juice from 1 lime, and 1 tbsp lime zest.
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking pan.
Heat a small amount of oil (about 1 tbsp) in a large skillet over medium heat. Dip each tortilla (about 12 corn or flour tortillas) in the hot oil for a few seconds per side to soften.
Remove tortillas and pat dry with paper towels.
Fill each tortilla with approximately 1/2 cup of shredded chicken.
Roll up tortillas and place seam-down in the prepared baking pan.
Pour the lime-sour cream mixture evenly over the enchiladas.
Top with 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until cheese is melted and bubbly and enchiladas are heated through.
Let stand for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
