Enchilada Filling

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Filling

    In a bowl, combine the shredded chicken, chopped onions, chopped cilantro, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Tortillas

    Warm the corn tortillas in a skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side to make them pliable.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Enchiladas

    Spread a small amount of enchilada sauce on the bottom of a baking dish. Take a warm tortilla, fill it with the chicken mixture, sprinkle some shredded cheese on top, then roll it up and place it seam side down in the baking dish. Repeat with remaining tortillas.

  4. 4

    Top with Sauce and Cheese

    Once all enchiladas are in the baking dish, pour the remaining enchilada sauce over the top. Sprinkle with the remaining shredded cheese.

  5. 5

    Bake

    Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake the enchiladas for about 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes. Serve with a dollop of sour cream on top and additional chopped cilantro if desired.
