Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 2 cups shredded chicken cooked
  • 3 cups green enchilada sauce
  • 8 pieces corn tortillas
  • 2 cups Monterey Jack cheese shredded
  • 1 cup sour cream for serving
  • 0.25 cup chopped cilantro for garnish
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • In a pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the shredded chicken, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine.
  • Warm the tortillas in the microwave for about 20 seconds to make them pliable. Fill each tortilla with a portion of the chicken mixture and roll tightly.
  • Spread 1 cup of the enchilada sauce on the bottom of a baking dish. Place the rolled tortillas seam-side down in the dish.
  • Pour the remaining enchilada sauce over the tortillas and sprinkle the shredded Monterey Jack cheese on top.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the sauce is bubbly.
  • Garnish with chopped cilantro and serve with sour cream.

Notes

These enchiladas can be prepared ahead of time and refrigerated until ready to bake.
