How To Make Enchiladas Verdes Recipe
Serves:
Ingredients
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 12 corn tortillas
- 2 cups shredded cheese (Mexican blend or Monterey Jack)
- 1 cup salsa verde
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
-
In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Season the chicken breasts with cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Cook the chicken for 5-6 minutes on each side until cooked through. Remove from heat and let it cool. Once cooled, shred the chicken with two forks.
-
In a small saucepan, heat the salsa verde over low heat.
-
Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet or in the microwave until soft and pliable.
-
Spread a spoonful of sour cream onto each tortilla, then add a generous amount of shredded chicken and cheese on top. Roll up the tortilla tightly and place seam side down in a greased baking dish.
-
Repeat until all the tortillas are filled and rolled. Pour the warm salsa verde over the enchiladas and sprinkle with remaining cheese.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
-
Serve hot with additional sour cream, salsa, and fresh cilantro if desired.
