Time 1h25m

Yield 7

Number Of Ingredients 18

3 (7 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons Old El Paso Fajita Seasoning Mix-Dry PLB
salt and ground black pepper to taste
⅔ cup Nacho Cheese Sauce
½ cup diced onion
2 (8 ounce) cans diced green chile peppers, divided
5 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 small jalapeno pepper - stemmed, seeded, and diced
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon chili powder
½ teaspoon dried oregano
1 (10.5 ounce) can condensed cream of chicken soup
5 ounces milk
½ cup shredded white Cheddar cheese
7 (8 inch) flour tortillas
12 ounces shredded Mexican-blend cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Rub chicken breasts on both sides with olive oil, then sprinkle with fajita seasoning, salt, and pepper. Place on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 35 to 40 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove from the oven and allow to cool. Keep oven on.
  • Shred chicken, discarding any extra fat or tough bits. Place in a large bowl with nacho dip, onion, 1 can chile peppers, cream cheese, jalapeno, cumin, garlic powder, chili powder, oregano, and salt to taste; mix to combine.
  • Combine condensed soup, remaining can of green chile peppers, milk, and Cheddar cheese in a pan over medium heat. Stir to combine and cook until sauce is heated through, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer 1/4 cup sauce to the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish. Leave remaining sauce in the pan.
  • Distribute filling evenly amongst tortillas, then sprinkle 2 tablespoons Mexican cheese on each. Transfer enchiladas to the baking dish and pour remaining sauce over top. Sprinkle with remaining Mexican cheese.
  • Return to the oven and bake until cheese is hot and bubbly, about 20 minutes. Serve hot.

I followed the recipe exactly and the enchiladas turned out great! The sauce was creamy and flavorful, and the chicken was tender and juicy. I will definitely be making these again.

These enchiladas were a bit bland for my taste. I think I would have preferred a spicier sauce.
