I found this dip on another site. I usually plan ahead and grill extra chicken a day or so ahead. However, the purchased grilled chicken would work just as well. Cooking time does not include preparing the chicken.

We loved these easy chicken enchiladas. The recipe is simple enough to follow without too many added ingredients. Adjust the taco seasoning to suit your taste buds. Once baked, the chicken enchiladas are moist and flavorful with ooey gooey cheese on top. The flavor of these enchiladas was all that we could hope for. Try with corn tortillas too.
