Ingredients

8 corn tortillas
2 chicken breasts, cooked and shredded
1 onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 can (14 oz) enchilada sauce
1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or Mexican blend)
1/4 cup chopped cilantro

Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
In a skillet, sauté the onion and garlic until translucent.
Add the shredded chicken to the skillet and season with salt and pepper. Cook for 5 minutes.
Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet or over an open flame until pliable.
Pour a thin layer of enchilada sauce into a baking dish.
Dip each tortilla in the sauce to coat, then fill with the chicken mixture, roll tightly, and place seam-side down in the baking dish.
Pour the remaining sauce over the enchiladas and sprinkle with shredded cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Garnish with chopped cilantro and serve with a dollop of sour cream.
