Enchiladas

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken Filling

    In a bowl, mix the shredded chicken with half of the queso fresco and a pinch of salt. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Fry the Tortillas

    Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Quickly fry each tortilla for about 10 seconds on each side until soft. Drain on paper towels.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Enchiladas

    Take a tortilla, add about 1/4 cup of the chicken filling, and roll it up. Place the enchilada seam-side down in a baking dish. Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling.

  4. 4

    Add Mole Sauce

    Pour the mole sauce evenly over the assembled enchiladas, then sprinkle the remaining queso fresco on top.

  5. 5

    Bake

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

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve hot, garnished with lettuce, tomatoes, and a dollop of sour cream. Optionally, serve with rice or beans on the side.
