Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Filling

    In a bowl, mix the shredded chicken with salt, pepper, and chopped cilantro. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Enchiladas

    Heat the corn tortillas in a dry skillet until warm. Place 1/3 cup of the chicken mixture on each tortilla, roll tightly, and place seam side down in a baking dish.

  3. 3

    Add Sauce

    Pour the green tomatillo sauce over the rolled enchiladas, ensuring they are well covered.

  4. 4

    Bake

    Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the enchiladas for 20 minutes or until heated through.

  5. 5

    Prepare the Sides

    While the enchiladas are baking, prepare the sides: slice the avocado and squeeze lime juice over it, and heat the refried beans and rice.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Once the enchiladas are done, serve them on a plate with a side of rice, refried beans, sliced avocado, and a dollop of sour cream.
