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 the chicken beforehand: For the best flavor and texture, marinate the chicken in the recommended spices and herbs for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
- Use a variety of cheeses: Feel free to mix and match different types of cheese to create a unique and flavorful filling. Some popular options include cheddar, Monterey Jack, pepper Jack, and queso Oaxaca.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the chicken, be sure to give it enough space in the pan so that it can brown properly. If you overcrowd the pan, the chicken will steam instead of fry and will be less flavorful.
- Assemble the enchiladas carefully: To prevent the enchiladas from falling apart, be sure to roll them up tightly and place them seam-side down in the baking dish.
- Bake until bubbly and golden brown: The enchiladas are done baking when the cheese is melted and bubbly and the tortillas are golden brown. This usually takes about 20-25 minutes.
Conclusion:
This chicken enchilada bake is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for any occasion. With its flavorful chicken filling, creamy cheese sauce, and crispy tortillas, this dish is sure to be a hit with everyone at the table.
