Enchilada Filling

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

  2. 2

    Prepare the Filling

    In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, diced green chiles, softened cream cheese, and 1 cup of shredded cheese. Mix until well combined.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Enchiladas

    Take a tortilla, fill it with about 1/4 cup of the chicken mixture, roll it up, and place it seam-side down in a greased 9x13 inch baking dish. Repeat with remaining tortillas.

Baking

  1. 4

    Add Sauce and Cheese

    Once all enchiladas are in the dish, pour any remaining filling mixture over them, then sprinkle the remaining shredded cheese on top.

  2. 5

    Bake

    Cover the dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and golden.

Serving

    Top and Serve

    Remove enchiladas from the oven and let them cool slightly. Serve topped with black beans, shredded lettuce, and a dollop of sour cream.
