Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Filling

    In a bowl, mix the shredded chicken with half of the sour cream, salt, and a little bit of Mole Verde sauce until well combined.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Tortillas

    In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Lightly fry each corn tortilla for about 30 seconds on each side until they are soft and pliable.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Enchiladas

    Take a tortilla, place a generous amount of the chicken mixture in the center, roll it up tightly, and place it seam-side down in a greased baking dish. Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling.

  4. 4

    Add Sauce and Bake

    Pour the remaining Mole Verde sauce over the enchiladas, making sure they are well covered. If using, sprinkle shredded cheese on top. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 20 minutes.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Remove from oven, top with remaining sour cream and pico de gallo, and garnish with fresh cilantro. Serve warm.
