Always Delicious Chicken & Cheese Enchiladas image

This is my favorite, favorite chicken enchilada recipe. It's very quick and easy and people are always asking for the recipe. It's from The Junior League of Spokane's Gold'n Delicious cookbook (one of the best cookbooks ever!).

These enchiladas were amazing! The chicken was tender and juicy, the cheese sauce was rich and creamy, and the tortillas were perfectly cooked. I will definitely be making these again.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but these enchiladas were not good. The chicken was dry and the cheese sauce was bland. I had to throw them away.

These enchiladas were a disaster. The chicken was tough, the cheese sauce was runny, and the tortillas were soggy. I couldn't even finish one.

I thought these enchiladas were just okay. The chicken was a little dry, and the cheese sauce was bland. I wouldn't make these again.

These enchiladas were easy to make and turned out great. I used rotisserie chicken to save time, and the enchiladas were still very flavorful. I will definitely be making these again.

I'm not a huge fan of enchiladas, but these were surprisingly good. The chicken was moist and flavorful, and the cheese sauce was rich and creamy. I would definitely make these again.
