To save time prepare and cook the chicken a day ahead, make this as spicy as you like by using spicy salsa and you may also add in crushed chili flakes for more heat :)

These enchiladas were a little spicy for my taste, but they were still very good. I would recommend using less chili powder if you don't like spicy food.
