Enchiladas

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Filling

    In a skillet over medium heat, sauté the diced onion until translucent. Add the shredded grilled chicken and mix well. Remove from heat.

  2. 2

    Make the Sauce

    In a blender, combine sour cream, chopped cilantro, lime juice, and minced garlic. Blend until smooth and creamy. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Enchiladas

    Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Take a tortilla, fill it with the chicken and onion mixture, and roll it up. Place the rolled enchiladas seam-side down in a greased baking dish.

  4. 4

    Add Sauce and Cheese

    Pour the cilantro cream sauce over the enchiladas, ensuring they are well covered. Sprinkle shredded Monterey Jack cheese on top.

  5. 5

    Bake

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

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve the enchiladas hot, garnished with cilantro lime rice, pico de gallo, and additional sour cream on the side.
