Ingredients

  • 1-1/2 cups Herdez Tomatillo Verde Mexican Cooking Sauce or other salsa verde
  • 2 cup sour cream
  • 2 cups shredded cooked chicken I like to use chicken cooked with taco or fajita seasoning
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar or Monterey jack cheese
  • 6 six-inch flour tortillas
  • chopped fresh cilantro optional
  • chopped green onions optional
  • chopped avocado optional

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a medium bowl, stir together the tomatillo verde salsa, sour cream, and half of the cheese.
  • Pour 2 cups of the sauce into another bowl. Set aside. (This is to pour over the top of the enchiladas later)
  • Stir in the shredded cooked chicken into the original batch of sauce.
  • Add 2 tablespoons of the reserved sauce to the bottom of a 9-inch x 9-inch baking dish.
  • Place roughly 1/4 cup of the chicken mixture in the center of each tortilla. Roll up each tortilla and place seam-side down in the baking dish.
  • Pour the reserved sauce evenly over the top of the enchiladas. Sprinkle the remaining cheese evenly over the top of the enchiladas. Bake in a preheated oven for about 20 minutes until the sides are bubbly and the cheese is melted on the top. Garnish with chopped, green onions, cilantro, or chopped avocado and serve.
