|---|---|
| 1 | Can condensed cream of chicken soup |
| 1/2 | Cup milk |
| 3 | Green chilies |
| 3/4 | Cup salsa |
| 1 | Cooked chicken, shredded (about 2 cups) |
| 2/3 | Cup shredded cheddar cheese |
| 8 | Flour tortillas |
Instructions:
-
Prepare the Sauce: In a small bowl, combine the condensed cream of chicken soup, milk, and taco seasoning. Set aside for later use.
-
Prepare the Filling: In a medium bowl, mix together the cooked shredded chicken, salsa, green chilies, and 2 tablespoons of the prepared soup mixture. This flavorful filling is the heart of your enchiladas.
-
Assemble the Enchiladas: Take each flour tortilla and spread about 1/3 cup of the chicken mixture along one side. Roll the tortilla tightly around the filling and place it seam side down in a greased 3-quart oblong baking dish. Repeat this process for the remaining tortillas.
-
Top and Bake: Pour the remaining soup mixture evenly over the assembled enchiladas. Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese generously on top, covering all the enchiladas. For extra gooeyness, feel free to add more cheese if desired. Cover the baking dish with foil.
-
Bake: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the covered baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35 minutes, or until the enchiladas are hot and bubbling with cheesy goodness.
-
Serve: Once baked to perfection, remove the foil from the baking dish and let it cool for a few minutes. Serve the enchiladas hot, garnished with your favorite toppings such as sliced black olives, guacamole, sliced green onions, and a dollop of sour cream.
