Thanks, Sarah, for giving me this recipe!! Usually enchiladas are dry and bland, especially the next day. But this recipe is the exception...moist and spicy and fabulous. You won't be disappointed!

Time 50m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 -6 chicken breasts, boiled and shredded
8 -10 tortillas, burrito size
16 ounces salsa (I use pace)
15 ounces black beans
1 pint heavy cream
2 cups monterey jack cheese, shredded

Steps:

  • Mix chicken, salsa, beans, and 1 Celsius cheese in a bowl.
  • Pour 1/2 the cream into a 9X13 dish and dip each tortilla in, both sides, till fully coated.
  • Next put chicken filling and cheese in the tortilla and roll up.
  • Place rolled up tortillas into the 9X13 dish and dump extra filling and cheese on top.
  • Pour the rest of the cream on top of the tortillas, making sure not to go more than 3/4 high in the dish (otherwise it will spill during cooking!).
  • Cook at 350 degrees for 30-45 minutes.
  • Serve with limes, rice, avocado, cilantro.

This recipe was a little too bland for my taste. I think next time I'll add some extra spices to the sauce.
