I must be in a Mexican food mood lately. Yesterday I made Fajitas for the family. They were delicious. Today I made Chicken Enchiladas .... also delicious. I don't make them like everyone else that's for sure. I usually always do an enchilada casserole as opposed to rolled individual enchiladas. I personally feel that I get more servings that way. Tonight we had a great dinner and I was still able to make 2 lunches for Erick. Here is my version of Chicken Enchiladas.
I am not picky about what cut of the chicken I use. If I have chicken breasts I use them, If I have thighs then I use them. I happened to find a really good deal on chicken thighs so that is what I used today. They needed some prep work but it was worth it. I cut the chicken thighs into bite sized pieces and chopped one onion.
I also added about 1 T. Minced Garlic.
I put all of that into a skillet and added salt and pepper to taste.
I cooked the meat until it was no longer pink and I drained the fat.
In a mixing bowl I combined about 30 oz of Green Chili Sauce
with 16 oz. Sour Cream. I used Stokes brand today but I have used other brands also and it has been good.
I places 1/4 of the green chili mixture into the bottom of a 9x13 pan
and topped with 4-5 flour tortillas.
I placed 1/2 of the green chili mixture over the tortillas
and topped with the cooked chicken.
I topped the chicken with about 1 1/2 C. shredded Mozarella cheese
and topped that with 4-5 flour tortillas.
I placed the remaining 1/4 of the green chili mixture on top
and covered with about 1 1/2 C. shredded Mozarella cheese.
I covered the pan with foil and baked at 350* for 1 hour
Delicious Chicken Enchiladas!
