CHICKEN OR TURKEY ENCHILADAS



Chicken or Turkey Enchiladas image

This is a take on a recipe from the Better Homes and Gardens Magazine, January 1997. The original recipe calls for turkey, which we use occasionally, but we love to have this at other times throughout the year with chicken.

Provided by Paula

Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 1h15m

Yield 12 enchiladas, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

1/2 cup onion, chopped
4 ounces reduced-fat cream cheese, softened (Neufchatel)
1 tablespoon water
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/8 teaspoon salt
4 cups cooked turkey breast or 4 cups cooked chicken breasts, shredded
12 (7 -8 inch) flour tortillas
nonstick spray coating
1 (10 3/4 ounce) can low-sodium condensed cream of chicken soup
1 (8 ounce) carton light sour cream
1 cup 2% low-fat milk
2 -4 tablespoons pickled jalapeno peppers, finely minced (May substitute 1-4 oz can diced green chilies, if you prefer it more mild)
1/2 cup Mexican blend cheese (I use Sargento brand)
1/4 cup cilantro (optional) or 1/4 cup parsley, minced (optional)
1/4 cup tomatoes, chopped (optional)
1/4 cup sweet red pepper, chopped (optional)

Steps:

  • In a small saucepan cook onion, covered, in a small amount of water over medium heat until tender; drain.
  • In a medium mixing bowl, stir together the cream cheese, the 1 tablespoons.
  • water, cumin, pepper, and salt.
  • Stir in the cooked onion and chicken.
  • Wrap the tortillas in foil.
  • Heat in a 350 degree oven for 10 to 15 minutes or until softened (if using a microwave, wrap the tortillas in a microwave-safe paper towel and micro-cook on high for 30 to 60 seconds until softened).
  • Meanwhile, spray a 9 x 13 baking dish with non-stick coating.
  • For each enchilada, spoon approximately 1/4 cup of the chicken mixture onto one tortilla; roll up.
  • Place the tortilla, seam side down, in the baking dish.
  • Repeat with the remaining filling and tortillas.
  • For the sauce, in a medium mixing bowl combine soup, sour cream, milk, and jalapeno peppers; pour mixture over the enchiladas.
  • Bake covered, in a 350 degree oven for about 40 minutes or until heated through.
  • Sprinkle with the cheese.
  • Bake the enchiladas, uncovered, for 4 to 5 minutes more until the cheese is melted.
  • Garnish with cilantro, parsley, tomatoes, and sweet peppers if desired.
  • NOTE: Usually I don't have chicken prepared in advance, so I use 4 chicken breast halves and sprinkle them with salt, pepper, and cumin.
  • I either saute these or grill them until no longer pink.
  • I shred the meat and proceed as usual with the recipe.
  • The time to make does not include this step.

CHICKEN OR TURKEY-MUSHROOM ENCHILADAS



Chicken or Turkey-Mushroom Enchiladas image

I have made these with both cooked turkey or chicken, please use only Campbell's Cream of Chicken Soup for this any other brand of soup will not produce the best flavor! This recipe can easily be doubled but you will need to bake it in two 13 x 9-inch baking dishes --- if you prefer lots of sauce, then use 3 cans soup with 1-1/2 cups sour cream and increase the cheddar cheese slightly.

Sour Cream Chicken Enchiladas

Provided by crestfallen

Time 2h

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 17

¼ cup butter, melted
1 ½ pounds bone-in chicken breasts
2 tablespoons butter
1 medium onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
1 (16 ounce) can diced tomatoes
1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce
1 (4 ounce) can diced green chile peppers, drained
1 teaspoon white sugar
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon chili powder
½ teaspoon dried oregano
½ teaspoon dried basil
½ teaspoon salt
12 (6 inch) corn tortillas
2 ½ cups grated Monterey Jack cheese
¾ cup sour cream

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Rub melted butter onto the chicken breasts and place in a baking pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, 45 to 55 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  • While the chicken is cooking, melt 2 tablespoons butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and garlic; cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Add diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, chile peppers, sugar, cumin, chili powder, oregano, basil, and salt; bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for about 20 minutes. Remove from the heat.

  • Dip a tortilla into the tomato sauce to soften. Place 1 piece of chicken and about 2 tablespoons Monterey Jack cheese in the center of the tortilla. Roll and place, seam-side down, in a 9x13-inch baking dish. Repeat with remaining tortillas, chicken, and cheese.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients whenever possible, especially for the salsa and guacamole. Fresh ingredients will give your enchiladas the best flavor.
  • If you don't have time to make your own salsa, you can use a store-bought salsa. Just be sure to choose a salsa that is flavorful and not too spicy.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different fillings. You can use any type of meat, seafood, or vegetables that you like. Some popular fillings include shredded chicken, ground beef, shrimp, and black beans.
  • Be sure to warm the tortillas before you fill them. This will help to prevent them from cracking.
  • Don't overfill the tortillas. Too much filling will make them difficult to roll and they may fall apart.
  • Bake the enchiladas until the cheese is melted and bubbly. This will take about 20 minutes.
  • Serve the enchiladas with your favorite toppings, such as sour cream, guacamole, salsa, and shredded lettuce.
