Time 55m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup Shamrock Farms® Premium Sour Cream
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 cup diced onion
3 cloves garlic, minced
3 cups shredded cooked chicken
1 ½ cups chunky salsa verde
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 ½ cups chicken broth
½ cup fat free half-and-half
1 (3 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
2 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese, divided
1 pinch salt and ground black pepper to taste
10 (6 inch) soft flour tortillas

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish. Set aside.
  • Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add onion and cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in garlic and continue cooking for 30 seconds. Add chicken and salsa verde; stir to warm through.
  • In a separate saucepan, melt butter. Whisk in flour and cook for 1 minute. Stir in chicken broth, Shamrock Farms Premium Sour Cream, half-and-half, and cream cheese. Continue stirring until cream cheese melts. Whisk in 1 1/2 cups shredded cheese until melted. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • To assemble, spoon some of the chicken mixture down the center of each tortilla. Roll tortillas up and place seam-side down in prepared baking dish. Pour cheese sauce over the top. Sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup shredded cheese.
  • Cover with greased foil and bake for 15 minutes. Remove foil and continue baking for 15 to 20 minutes, or until hot and bubbly.

These enchiladas were a bit too cheesy for my taste. I think I would use less cheese next time.

I love that this recipe uses crema instead of sour cream. It gives the enchiladas a richer flavor.

The creamy salsa verde was a bit too thick for my taste. I think I would thin it out with some water or broth next time.
