Instructions
Making Green Chile Chicken Enchiladas is simple if you follow these straightforward steps:
1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Mix Chicken and Sauce: In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, diced green chiles, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, and sour cream. Mix thoroughly until everything is well combined.
3. Prepare Tortillas: If your tortillas are stiff, warm them in the microwave for about 30 seconds to make them pliable.
4. Fill Tortillas: Spoon a portion of the chicken mixture onto each tortilla and sprinkle with shredded cheese. Roll the tortilla tightly around the filling and place it seam-side down in a greased baking dish.
5. Repeat: Continue filling and rolling the tortillas until the dish is filled.
6. Top with Sauce: Pour the green chile enchilada sauce evenly over the top of the rolled tortillas.
7. Add Cheese: Sprinkle the remaining shredded cheese over the sauce.
8. Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
9. Garnish: Remove from the oven, allow it to cool for a few minutes, then garnish with chopped cilantro if desired.
