ANGELA'S AWESOME ENCHILADAS

The secret is in the seasonings! I whipped these up on my own using stuff I had on hand. Shredding the chicken is the most time-consuming step, but it's worth it in the end. Give these babies a try! Serve with sour cream and a side of Spanish rice.

Time 1h45m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast meat - cut into chunks
1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of chicken soup
1 ¼ cups sour cream
¼ teaspoon chili powder
1 tablespoon butter
1 small onion, chopped
1 (4 ounce) can chopped green chilies, drained
1 (1.25 ounce) package mild taco seasoning mix
1 bunch green onions, chopped, divided
1 cup water
1 teaspoon lime juice
½ teaspoon onion powder
½ teaspoon garlic powder
5 (12 inch) flour tortillas
3 cups Cheddar cheese, shredded, divided
1 (10 ounce) can enchilada sauce
1 (6 ounce) can sliced black olives

Steps:

  • Place the chicken in a large pot and add water to cover. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the chicken pieces are no longer pink, about 10 minutes. Shred chicken by placing two forks back to back and pulling meat apart. Set the shredded chicken aside. Meanwhile, combine the cream of chicken soup, sour cream, and chili powder in a saucepan. Bring to a simmer over low heat, stirring occasionally, then turn off the heat and cover to keep warm.
  • Heat the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in the onion; cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the shredded chicken, chopped green chilies, taco seasoning, half of the bunch of chopped green onion, and water. Allow to simmer for 10 minutes. Stir in the lime juice, onion powder, and garlic powder; simmer for an additional 10 minutes.
  • Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Stir 1 cup of the soup mixture into the skillet with the chicken mixture. Spread the remaining soup mixture on the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish.
  • Fill each tortilla with chicken mixture. Sprinkle Cheddar cheese over the chicken filling before folding the tortillas, reserving half of the shredded cheese for topping the enchiladas. Fold tortillas over the filling and place seam-side down in the prepared pan.
  • Pour enchilada sauce evenly over the enchiladas. Cover with the remaining 1 1/2 cups of Cheddar cheese. Sprinkle the reserved chopped green onions and the sliced olives on top of the cheese. Bake in the preheated oven until filling is heated through and the cheese is melted and bubbling, about 25 minutes.

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

nonstick cooking spray, for greasing
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 medium yellow onion, diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon paprika
¼ teaspoon chili powder
1 lb ground beef
3 teaspoons kosher salt
1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
2 cups enchilada sauce, divided
8 medium flour tortillas
2 cups shredded mexican cheese blend
¼ cup fresh cilantro, finely chopped
cotija cheese, for garnish - optional

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease a 9 x 13-inch baking dish with nonstick spray.
  • Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Once the oil begins to shimmer, add the onion and cook, stirring often, until beginning to soften, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic, cumin, paprika, and chili powder and cook, stirring constantly, until aromatic, about 30 seconds.
  • Add the ground beef and cook, breaking up with a wooden spoon, until the beef is browned and cooked through, about 5 minutes. Add the salt and black beans and continue cooking until warmed through, about 3 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat.
  • Add 1 cup of enchilada sauce to the bottom of the prepared baking dish and use a spatula to spread evenly.
  • Scoop ½ cup of the beef mixture onto the lower half of a tortilla, then roll up. Place the rolled tortilla seam side-down in the baking dish. Repeat with the remaining beef and tortillas, arranging in a row.
  • Top with the remaining cup of enchilada sauce. Sprinkle the shredded Mexican cheese on top.
  • Bake until the cheese has melted, about 10 minutes.
  • Top the enchiladas with the cilantro and Cotija cheese, if desired, and serve immediately.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • To make the enchiladas ahead of time, assemble them and then cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours. When ready to bake, bring to room temperature for 30 minutes before baking.
  • You can use any type of shredded beef for this recipe. Leftover roast beef, steak, or ground beef all work well.
  • If you don't have any enchilada sauce, you can make your own by simmering together 1 cup of tomato sauce, 1 cup of chicken broth, 1 teaspoon of chili powder, 1 teaspoon of cumin, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt.
  • To make the enchiladas vegetarian, use a plant-based protein such as beans, lentils, or tofu instead of beef.
  • Serve the enchiladas with your favorite toppings, such as sour cream, salsa, guacamole, or shredded cheese.
