Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use fresh, ripe green chiles. If you can't find fresh green chiles, you can use canned green chiles, but be sure to drain and rinse them well before using.
  • If you like your enchiladas spicy, you can add more green chiles to the sauce. You can also add a teaspoon or two of chili powder to the sauce for an extra kick.
  • Be sure to cook the tortillas in a hot skillet before filling and rolling them. This will help to prevent them from breaking.
  • Top the enchiladas with plenty of shredded cheese and your favorite toppings. Some popular toppings include sour cream, guacamole, and salsa.
  • Serve the enchiladas immediately. They can be reheated in the oven or microwave if necessary.
