For the Enchiladas

Method

For the Sauce

  1. 1

    Prepare the Sauce

    In a blender, combine tomatillos, green onions, garlic, jalapeño, lime juice, and salt. Blend until smooth.

  2. 2

    Cook the Sauce

    Transfer the blended mixture to a saucepan and add chicken broth. Simmer over medium heat for about 10 minutes or until it thickens slightly. Adjust seasoning with salt if needed.

For the Enchiladas

  1. 3

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

  2. 4

    Prepare the Tortillas

    In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Lightly fry each corn tortilla for about 10-15 seconds on each side until softened. Drain on paper towels.

  3. 5

    Fill the Tortillas

    In a bowl, mix shredded chicken with cream cheese and chopped cilantro. Take each tortilla, spoon some of the chicken mixture into the center, and roll it up tightly.

  4. 6

    Assemble the Enchiladas

    Place the rolled tortillas seam-side down in a greased baking dish. Pour the tomatillo sauce generously over the enchiladas, ensuring they are well covered.

  5. 7

    Add Cheese

    Sprinkle shredded Monterey Jack cheese on top of the enchiladas, covering them evenly.

  6. 8

    Bake

    Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

  7. 9

    Serve

    Let the enchiladas cool for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with additional cilantro if desired.
