CHICKEN ENCHILADA CASSEROLE IN GREEN CHILE AND SOUR CREAM SAUCE
Not the most "healthy" recipe, but it's very tasty! Very creamy and rich enchilada chicken casserole. If you prefer the more traditional rolled enchiladas, all you have to do is place the chicken and sauce mix (approx 3 Tbsp) in the center of each corn tortilla, roll, and place in casserole dish with the seam side down...then cover the rolls with remaining sauce and cheese. I was feeling lazy, so I did it casserole style.

Tips:
- Choose the right tortillas. Corn tortillas are traditional for enchiladas, but you can also use flour tortillas. If you're using corn tortillas, be sure to soften them in warm water before filling and rolling.
- Don't overfill the tortillas. You want to be able to roll them up without them breaking. A good rule of thumb is to put about 1/4 cup of filling in each tortilla.
- Use a flavorful sauce. The sauce is what really makes enchiladas special. Be sure to use a sauce that you love. You can use a store-bought sauce or make your own.
- Top the enchiladas with cheese. Cheese is a classic topping for enchiladas. It adds a delicious, gooey texture. You can use any type of cheese that you like.
- Bake the enchiladas until they're bubbly and hot. This will typically take about 20 minutes.
Conclusion:
Sour cream enchilada casserole is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It's also a great way to use up leftover chicken or beef. With its creamy, cheesy sauce and flavorful filling, this casserole is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
