How to Make Super Easy And Yummy Chicken Enchiladas

  1. Cook 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts with 1 tsp poultry seasoning until cooked through.
  2. Cool completely, then shred chicken using a food processor.
  3. Sauté 1 medium onion (chopped) in 1 tbsp olive oil in a large saucepan until softened.
  4. Add shredded chicken, 1 (4 oz) can diced green chilis (reserve half), and 2 tbsp taco seasoning. Cook for 2 minutes.
  5. Remove from heat and stir in 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese.
  6. Prepare the sauce: In a medium bowl, combine 1 (10.75 oz) can cream of mushroom soup, 1 cup sour cream (or fat-free cottage cheese), and the remaining 1/2 can of diced green chilis.
  7. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  8. In a 9x13 inch baking dish, spread 1 cup of the sauce.
  9. Fill each of 10-12 flour tortillas with 1/8 to 1/10 of the chicken mixture. Roll up tightly and place seam-down in the baking dish.
  10. Pour the remaining sauce evenly over the enchiladas.
  11. Sprinkle the top with the remaining 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese.
  12. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until heated through and bubbly.
