How to Make Spanish Class Enchiladas

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the shredded chicken, chopped onion, and 1/2 of the enchilada sauce.
  3. Lightly coat the corn tortillas with oil to prevent sticking. This can be done by lightly brushing each tortilla with oil, or dipping them briefly in a shallow dish of oil.
  4. Fill each tortilla with about 1/4 cup of the chicken mixture.
  5. Roll up the tortillas and place them seam-down in a lightly greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
  6. Pour the remaining enchilada sauce evenly over the enchiladas.
  7. Add water to the enchiladas in the baking dish.
  8. Sprinkle generously with shredded cheddar cheese.
  9. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and the enchiladas are heated through.
  10. Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your fiesta!
