Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Filling

    In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute.

  2. 2

    Combine Ingredients

    Add the shredded chicken, cilantro, salt, and pepper to the skillet. Mix well and cook for about 5 minutes until heated through.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Enchiladas

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread a little enchilada sauce on the bottom of a baking dish. Take a corn tortilla, fill it with the chicken mixture, roll it up, and place it seam-side down in the baking dish. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.

  4. 4

    Add Sauce and Cheese

    Pour the remaining enchilada sauce over the rolled tortillas and sprinkle with shredded cheese.

  5. 5

    Bake

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

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve hot with cooked rice on the side.
