Enchilada Ingredients

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    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 soft. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  2. 2

    Mix the Filling

    In a large bowl, combine shredded chicken, chopped onion, salt, black pepper, and half of the shredded cheese (reserve the other half for topping). Mix well.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Enchiladas

    Spread a thin layer of red or green enchilada sauce in the bottom of a large baking dish. Take a tortilla, fill it with the chicken mixture, roll it up, and place it seam-side down in the dish. Repeat until the dish is filled.

  4. 4

    Add Sauce and Cheese

    Pour the remaining enchilada sauce (red or green) over the top of the rolled enchiladas. Sprinkle with the remaining shredded cheese.

  5. 5

    Bake the Enchiladas

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and slightly golden.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Once baked, remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve with sour cream on the side.
