Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
- 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup
- 1 can (4 oz) diced green chilies
- 1/2 cup chopped onion
- 8 flour tortillas
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh cilantro for garnish (optional)
Instructions
1. Preheat and Prepare
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13 inch baking dish.
2. Make the Filling
In a large bowl, mix together the shredded chicken, 1/2 cup sour cream, 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese, diced green chilies, and chopped onion. Season with garlic powder, cumin, salt, and pepper.
3. Assemble the Enchiladas
Spoon about 1/4 cup of the chicken mixture onto each tortilla. Roll up the tortillas and place them seam-side down in the prepared baking dish.
4. Prepare the Sauce
In a medium saucepan, mix together the remaining sour cream, cream of chicken soup, and chicken broth. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the sauce is smooth and heated through.
5. Pour and Top
Pour the sauce evenly over the rolled tortillas in the baking dish. Sprinkle the remaining cheddar and Monterey Jack cheeses on top.
6. Bake
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
7. Serve
Garnish with fresh cilantro if desired. Serve hot and enjoy your delicious sour cream chicken enchiladas!
Tips
- For added flavor, try using smoked chicken or adding a dash of chili powder to the sauce.
- If you prefer, corn tortillas can be used instead of flour tortillas.
