I love enchiladas. They are one of those ‘phase foods’ for me…I go through spurts of making them two, even three, times a week…and then forgetting about them for a few weeks, only to find myself making them twice in the same week again. Hope you enjoy these as much as we do!

Cooking Directions for Single Meal

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 F. Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the green salsa, sour cream, minced onion, minced garlic, salt and pepper. Divide the sauce in half and combine one half with the shredded chicken. Set the other half aside to pour on the top of the enchiladas.
  3. Roll the chicken and creamy green salsa into the corn tortillas, nestling them snugly into the baking dish. Once all the enchiladas are made and the chicken is used up, pour the other half of the creamy green salsa sauce on top and sprinkle the shredded cheese over the top.
  4. Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until cheese has melted.
  5. Prepare veggies.
  6. Serve Creamy Salsa Verde Chicken Enchiladas, topped with guacamole with side of veggies.
