Time 50m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
4 cloves garlic, crushed
1 tablespoon ground cumin
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 (15 ounce) can petite diced tomatoes, drained
8 green onions, chopped
1 (7 ounce) can diced green chiles
½ cup chopped fresh cilantro
¼ cup lime juice
2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese, divided
10 large flour tortillas
1 (15 ounce) can green enchilada sauce

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a baking dish.
  • Bring a saucepan of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook the chicken breasts in boiling water until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 7 to 10 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove chicken to a cutting board to cool.
  • Beat cream cheese, garlic, cumin, salt, and pepper together in a bowl. Stir tomatoes, green onion, green chiles, cilantro, and lime juice into the cream cheese mixture. Add 1 cup Cheddar cheese and fold to integrate.
  • Shred cooled chicken with a pair of forks into strands; stir into the cream cheese mixture. Spoon about 1/2 cup of the chicken mixture into the center of each tortilla and fold tortilla around the filling; arrange into the prepared baking dish. Top tortillas with remaining Cheddar cheese and green enchilada sauce.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until hot and the cheese is melted, about 20 minutes.

CHEESE ENCHILADAS W/SOUR CREAM SAUCE



Cheese Enchiladas W/Sour Cream Sauce image

This is an enchilada dish I made for my grandparents when they came to visit us several years ago. They still rave about it. I have made it quite a few times since. The sour cream sauce is always a big hit.

Categories     Cheese

Time 45m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

32 ounces light sour cream or 32 ounces single cream
1 (10 1/2 ounce) can cream of chicken soup
2 (4 ounce) cans chopped green chilies (sometimes I substitute chopped jalapenos for 1 can of chiles)
vegetable shortening
20 corn tortillas
4 -6 cups shredded cheese (I use cheddar, colby longhorn, "or" cheddar or jack)
1 onion, chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350.
  • Combine sour cream, soup, and chilis (and/or jalapenos) in a large sauce pan over medium heat.
  • When sauce is well heated, set aside.
  • Tortillas (step 1): Completely, but lightly cover both sides of one tortilla with shortening (Don't be afraid to use your hands), then place the tortilla on a microwave-safe plate.
  • Tortillas (step 2): Completely but lightly cover one side of the next tortilla and place it atop the first tortilla, shortening side up.
  • Repeat Step 2 until all tortillas are stacked, then microwave the entire stack on high for 4-5 minutes.
  • Allow to cool.
  • Combine shredded cheese and chopped onion in a bowl and gently mix together using your hands.
  • Lightly cover the bottom of a baking dish with some of the sauce (This will prevent the tortillas from becoming stiff and chewy as they cook).
  • Place a generous portion of the cheese/onion mixture onto a tortilla, then roll the tortilla like a cigar (not too tight though).
  • Place into the baking dish, seam side down to prevent the enchilada from unrolling.
  • Repeat until all tortillas have been stuffed, rolled, and placed into the baking dish (it may take more than one baking dish for 20 enchiladas).
  • Cover the enchiladas with the sour cream sauce and any leftover cheese/onion stuffing.
  • Bake uncovered for 25-30 minutes, depending on your oven.
  • Allow to cool for 5 minutes before serving.

Tips:

  • For the best results, use fresh corn tortillas. If you're using store-bought tortillas, be sure to heat them up before filling them.
  • Use a variety of cheeses in your enchiladas. This will give them a more complex flavor. Some good options include cheddar, Monterey Jack, and queso fresco.
  • Don't overfill your enchiladas. This will make them difficult to roll and will also prevent them from cooking evenly.
  • Be sure to sauce your enchiladas generously. This will help them stay moist and flavorful.
  • Top your enchiladas with your favorite toppings. Some good options include sour cream, guacamole, and salsa.

Conclusion:

Cheese enchiladas with sour cream sauce are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for any occasion. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a dish that is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a quick and tasty meal, give cheese enchiladas a try!
