Ingredients:
- 2 cups cooked turkey
- 3 cups low-fat Monterey Jack cheese, shredded
- 1 cup diced green chilies
- 1/2 cup diced onion
- 1 can (8 ounces) enchilada sauce
- 8 corn tortillas
- 3/4 cup low-fat sour cream
Instructions:
| Step | Description |
|---|---|
| 1 | In a skillet, cook the turkey until it’s fully done and golden brown. |
| 2 | In a small bowl, combine the cooked turkey, 2 cups of shredded Monterey Jack cheese, diced green chilies, and diced onions. Mix well to ensure even distribution of ingredients. |
| 3 | In a separate small skillet, bring the enchilada sauce to a gentle boil, then remove it from the heat. |
| 4 | Dip each corn tortilla into the heated enchilada sauce to soften it, making it more pliable for rolling. |
| 5 | Spoon approximately 1/3 cup of the turkey and cheese mixture along with 2 tablespoons of sour cream down the center of each tortilla. |
| 6 | Carefully roll up each tortilla, ensuring that the filling is securely tucked inside, and place them seam side down in a 12 x 8-inch baking dish. |
| 7 | Pour the remaining heated enchilada sauce evenly over the top of the rolled enchiladas in the baking dish. |
| 8 | Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of shredded Monterey Jack cheese over the enchiladas, ensuring each one is generously covered with cheese. |
| 9 | Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C), then bake the enchiladas for approximately 20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the edges of the tortillas are golden brown. |
| 10 | Once baked, remove the enchiladas from the oven and allow them to cool slightly before serving. |
