Simple Sour Cream Chicken Enchil.jpg

Yield: 6 Cook Time: 20 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 onion (chopped)
  • 2 tablespoons garlic (minced)
  • 1 tablespoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 tablespoon ground coriander
  • 1 lb chicken breast (diced)
  • 6 flour tortillas (softened)
  • 1 1/2 cups cheddar cheese (grated divided)
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1/4 cup all purpose flour
  • 2 cups chicken stock
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 4 oz can chopped green chilies

Optional

  • Chopped fresh cilantro

Directions

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Apply cooking spray to a 9×13 baking dish.

Cook the filling

  • In a large skillet, heat oil over medium heat and cook the onion until softened. Add garlic, cumin, and coriander, cooking for 30 seconds. Then, add the chicken and cook until done. Set aside.

Make the sauce

  • In a medium saucepan, melt butter. Whisk in flour to create a roux, stirring until bubbly, then gradually whisk in chicken stock. Bring to a boil while whisking frequently. Remove from heat and stir in sour cream and green chilies. Season with salt and pepper.

Assemble

  • Spread a thin layer of sauce on the bottom of the baking dish. Place 1 tablespoon of cheese on each tortilla and evenly distribute the cooked chicken among them. Roll up each tortilla and place them seam-side down in the baking dish. Pour the sauce evenly over the enchiladas and sprinkle with the remaining cheese.

Bake

  • Bake at 400°F for 20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the sauce around the edges of the baking dish is bubbly. Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes. Optionally, sprinkle cilantro on top before serving. Enjoy!
