LISA'S SOUR CREAM CHICKEN ENCHILADAS

We love sour cream chicken enchiladas so I came up with this recipe and added the cream cheese to make them extra special. The recipe uses flour tortillas but I am sure you could use corn tortillas if that is what you prefer. I cook the chicken breasts by baking or boiling them. I did not add the chicken cook time in the recipe total cook time because I usually either use chicken left over from another meal or prepare in advance and freeze. I usually serve this with mexican rice and quacamole salad with tortilla chips. I hope you enjoy them.

SOUR CREAM CHICKEN ENCHILADAS

My friend found this on another website and we both ended up making it. Excellent enchiladas! I added lots more cilantro and no chilis, to my taste. And I my chicken happened to have been marinated in a lime marinade, which I think gave it a good flavor. I may just add some lime next time.

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.
  • Remove chicken from the oven. Remove and discard skin and bones. Cut meat into 12 strips. Keep oven on.
  • 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.
  • Stir sour cream into the remaining tomato sauce; pour over enchiladas. Sprinkle with remaining cheese and cover with aluminum foil or a lid.
  • Bake until heated through, about 45 minutes.

Tips:

  • Prep your ingredients: Make sure all your ingredients are prepped and measured before you start cooking. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling.
  • Use a large skillet: A large skillet will give you plenty of room to cook the chicken and vegetables without overcrowding them.
  • Don't overcook the chicken: Chicken breasts can dry out quickly, so be careful not to overcook them. Cook them until they are just cooked through, about 5-7 minutes per side.
  • Use a flavorful enchilada sauce: The enchilada sauce is what will give your dish its flavor, so choose one that you enjoy. You can use a store-bought sauce or make your own.
  • Assemble the enchiladas carefully: Be careful not to overfill the tortillas, or they will be difficult to roll. You should also make sure the tortillas are completely covered in sauce, or they will dry out.
  • Bake the enchiladas until they are bubbly and golden brown: This will take about 20-25 minutes.

Conclusion:

Lisa's sour cream chicken enchiladas are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that the whole family will enjoy. With a few simple tips, you can make sure your enchiladas turn out perfect every time. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dinner idea, give this recipe a try.
