Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Filling

    If using shredded chicken, heat it in a pan until warmed through. If using cheese, ensure it is shredded and ready.

  2. 2

    Assemble the Enchiladas

    On a clean surface, lay out one corn tortilla. Place half of the filling (chicken or cheese) in the center of the tortilla. Roll it up tightly and place it seam-side down in a baking dish. Repeat with the second tortilla.

  3. 3

    Add Sauce

    Pour the red or green sauce evenly over the rolled tortillas in the baking dish.

  4. 4

    Add Toppings

    Sprinkle shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, and cotija cheese over the top of the sauce.

  5. 5

    Bake

    Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake the enchiladas for about 15-20 minutes, or until heated through.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, and serve with a dollop of sour cream on top.
