Love this recipe!!! This is a combination of recipes that Dh and I came up with. It's my filling recipe and his sauce recipe. This looks like a lot of work, but really it's not. I usually make the filling up ahead of time and then all I have to do is roll them and make the sauce. Serve with black beans and spanish rice! Enjoy!!

Provided by KPD123

Categories     Chicken

Time 1h

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 21

2 cups rotisserie-cooked chicken
2 poblano peppers, roasted and chopped
1 red onion, chopped
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
2 teaspoons chili powder
1 cup monterey jack cheese, shredded
10 soft taco-size flour tortillas
1/4 cup green onion, finely sliced
1 large shallot, finely minced
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 -2 serrano peppers (optional) or 1 -2 jalapeno pepper, minced (optional)
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1/4 teaspoon coriander
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon white pepper
2 tablespoons flour
8 ounces sour cream
2 cups chicken broth

Steps:

  • To roast the peppers: Cut poblano peppers in half, remove all seeds and stem. Roast poblano peppers at 450 degrees until skin begins to blister and turn black in spots, this should take about 10-15 minutes. ***I save the plastic produce sack the peppers came in and when they come out of the oven, I place them in the sack and seal the sack. Let sit 5-10 minutes. The steam from inside will loosen the black skin. Pick what you can of the black parts off, then chop the peppers.
  • Combine the first 8 ingredients in a bowl. Set aside.
  • To make the sour cream enchilada sauce: Saute shallot, garlic and peppers in butter over medium heat in a large skillet until veggies soften. Add spices. Cook for another minute.
  • Combine sour cream and flour well. Add to skillet along with chicken broth. Wisk to combine. (It'll look a little funny for a minute, but don't worry!) Bring mixture to boil. Reduce heat, wisk and simmer until sauce is thick and creamy.
  • Add 3/4 cup of enchy sauce to the filling mixture. Combine well.
  • In a greased 13x9 casserole, coat the bottom of dish with 1/2 cup of enchy sauce.
  • Place 1/4 cup of filling down the center of each tortilla. Roll up and place seam side down in casserole. Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling. Top casserole with remaining enchy sauce.
  • Bake at 375 degrees for 20 minutes or until warm and bubbly!
  • Garnish with green onions.

CHICKEN AND BLACK BEAN ENCHILADAS IN SOUR CREAM SAUCE



Chicken and Black Bean Enchiladas in Sour Cream Sauce image

It was a cold and snowy day, and I was hungry for enchiladas. I didn't have the ingredients for my usual recipe, I didn't want to run to the store, so I just made this one up with what I had on hand.

Provided by Moki5786

Categories     Chicken

Time 1h5m

Yield 24 enchiladas, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 chicken breast, cooked
1 (15 ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed
1 1/2 cups shredded cheese
1 (36 count) package corn tortillas
1 1/2 cups sour cream
3 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons flour
2 cups chicken broth
1 onion, diced
1 green pepper, diced
2 garlic cloves, minced
cumin, to taste
dried chipotle powder, to taste
salt and pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Melt butter in a stock pot.
  • Add diced vegetables and saute until tender.
  • Sprinkle flour over the butter/veggie mix and whisk together, and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Add spices to taste, and cook for another minute or so.
  • Whisk in the chicken broth and bring to a boil.
  • When the sauce is thickened, remove from the heat and let cool for a few minutes, then whisk in the sour cream.
  • Taste the sauce and readjust your seasonings, if you need to. (I find that I often need to add more salt after I add the sour cream.).
  • Soften tortillas in your usual way. (I fry them in a bit of oil in my cast iron skillet.)
  • While the sauce is cooking, use a food processor and chop the chicken finely.
  • Mix chicken, beans, and 1 cup of cheese in a bowl.
  • Roll the filling in the softened tortillas and place them in a lightly greased pan. (You will probably have tortillas left over. My kids like them spread with a little butter and folded in quarters for snacks.).
  • Pour the sauce over top, sprinkle with the remaining cheese.
  • Bake for 45 minutes, or until bubbly and a little browned on the top.

CHEESE ENCHILADAS W/SOUR CREAM SAUCE



Cheese Enchiladas W/Sour Cream Sauce image

This is an enchilada dish I made for my grandparents when they came to visit us several years ago. They still rave about it. I have made it quite a few times since. The sour cream sauce is always a big hit.

Provided by Mark H.

Categories     Cheese

Time 45m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

32 ounces light sour cream or 32 ounces single cream
1 (10 1/2 ounce) can cream of chicken soup
2 (4 ounce) cans chopped green chilies (sometimes I substitute chopped jalapenos for 1 can of chiles)
vegetable shortening
20 corn tortillas
4 -6 cups shredded cheese (I use cheddar, colby longhorn, "or" cheddar or jack)
1 onion, chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350.
  • Combine sour cream, soup, and chilis (and/or jalapenos) in a large sauce pan over medium heat.
  • When sauce is well heated, set aside.
  • Tortillas (step 1): Completely, but lightly cover both sides of one tortilla with shortening (Don't be afraid to use your hands), then place the tortilla on a microwave-safe plate.
  • Tortillas (step 2): Completely but lightly cover one side of the next tortilla and place it atop the first tortilla, shortening side up.
  • Repeat Step 2 until all tortillas are stacked, then microwave the entire stack on high for 4-5 minutes.
  • Allow to cool.
  • Combine shredded cheese and chopped onion in a bowl and gently mix together using your hands.
  • Lightly cover the bottom of a baking dish with some of the sauce (This will prevent the tortillas from becoming stiff and chewy as they cook).
  • Place a generous portion of the cheese/onion mixture onto a tortilla, then roll the tortilla like a cigar (not too tight though).
  • Place into the baking dish, seam side down to prevent the enchilada from unrolling.
  • Repeat until all tortillas have been stuffed, rolled, and placed into the baking dish (it may take more than one baking dish for 20 enchiladas).
  • Cover the enchiladas with the sour cream sauce and any leftover cheese/onion stuffing.
  • Bake uncovered for 25-30 minutes, depending on your oven.
  • Allow to cool for 5 minutes before serving.

Lots of enchilada recipes here on Zaar, but I didn't see this one. This recipe was based from a recipe I found in a Kraft cookbook, since I didn't have enough of all the ingredients called for in the recipe I improvised and came up with this. Quick, easy and yummy!

FAMILY FAVORITE CHICKEN SOUR CREAM ENCHILADAS (CASSEROLE)



Family Favorite Chicken Sour Cream Enchiladas (Casserole) image

I've had this enchilada recipe for ages, it was passed down to me from my mother and is always a popular dish around my house. My husbands favorite casserole! :) Hope you enjoy as much as we do. A few notes: Sometimes I leave off the 2 cups of shredded chicken, and it is still yummy as can be. I usually double the green chiles and use "healthy request" soup and reduced fat sour cream. Also, we prefer corn tortillas in this dish, but use whatever you like. ENJOY!
