Green Chili Chicken Enchiladas image

This recipe is something I just threw together. So far I haven't seen any recipes that have "cream cheese" in their filler and it adds such a creamy texture. You can make it as mild or spicy as you like by ajusting the spice or add some jalapeno. My kids won't eat anything spicy.

Categories     Chicken

Time 1h30m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

6 -8 flour tortillas
1 (4 ounce) can green chili peppers, diced
1/2 cup roasted red pepper (jar)
4 ounces cream cheese
4 ounces sour cream
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
4 -5 ounces grated monterey jack pepper cheese
7 -8 ounces grated cheddar cheese
1 lb left over shredded cooked chicken (or more)
2 (10 ounce) cans enchilada sauce

Steps:

  • Turn on oven to lowest setting.
  • Wrap tortilla shells in foil, place in oven to soften (not too long or they will be very brittle).
  • Mix together green chili, red bell pepper, cream cheese, sour cream, salt, pepper and cayanee pepper until smooth.
  • Add shredded chicken and coat.
  • In a baking dish, coat the bottom with some of the enchilada sauce (just enough to coat).
  • Take out the flour shells spoon a tablespoon of enchilada sauce inside then fill with the chicken mixture (about 2 Tbs or whatever fulliness you like) and roll.
  • Place in the pan and continue until the mixture is gone.
  • Top with remaining enchilada sauce then pepper jack cheese and cheddar.
  • Cover dish with foil and bake at 350 for 60 min (or until cheese& sauce is bubbling).
  • This dish can be easily made ahead of time; I usually make this in the morning, so I'll I have to do is bake an hour before my hubby gets home from work.
  • It's also a great dish to make when you've had roasted chicken the night before and want to use the leftovers.

Worst enchiladas I've ever had.

These enchiladas were a waste of time and ingredients. The green chili sauce was watery and the chicken was tough. I will not be making these again.

I followed the recipe exactly and the enchiladas turned out dry and bland. I think I will try a different recipe next time.

The enchiladas were good, but the green chili sauce was a little bland. I added some extra spices to it and it was much better.

These enchiladas were a little too spicy for me, but my husband loved them. I will try making them again with a milder green chili sauce.

I made these enchiladas for my friends and they loved them. The green chili sauce was the perfect amount of spicy.

These enchiladas were easy to make and very tasty. I used a jarred green chili sauce and it worked out great. The chicken was tender and the cheese melted perfectly.

I followed the recipe exactly and the enchiladas turned out great! The green chili sauce was flavorful and the chicken was tender. I served them with sour cream and guacamole and they were a hit.

These enchiladas were delicious and easy to make. I used rotisserie chicken to save time, and the green chili sauce was perfect. I will definitely be making these again!

I made these enchiladas for a party and they were a huge success! Everyone loved them. I especially liked the fact that they were not too spicy, so even people who don't like spicy food could enjoy them.

These enchiladas were a hit with my family! The green chili sauce was flavorful and had just the right amount of heat. The chicken was tender and juicy, and the cheese melted perfectly. I will definitely be making these again.
