Grab these ingredients and add this to your menu! It is EASY!! And soooo good!!!
I go with the mild green chilis and sauce so it isn’t too spicy for the kids! Another option would be to make a few with just chicken and cheese and leave off the sauce for the littles! Little modifications can make meals work for the entire family, and save you from becoming a short order cook!
Green Chili Chicken Enchiladas
Ingredients:
- 8 tortillas – (I use whole grain. Siete is a wonderful gluten free option. Check your ingredients – they can have a lot of unnecessary ingredients)
- 1 rotisserie chicken shredded
- 4 oz can green chiles
- 10-12 oz can green enchilada sauce
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 cup Mexican cheese shredded (I choose low fat)
Chili Lime Sauce Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup plain low fat greek yogurt
- 1/2 lime juiced
- 1/4 cup cilantro
- green enchilada sauce
Additional Toppings:
- Cilantro
- Limes
- Avocado
- Plain Greek yogurt (healthier option for sour cream)
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- Combine the shredded chicken, green chilis, 1⁄4 can of green enchilada sauce, and 1/2 cup of cheese.
- Add salt & pepper, to taste. Mix well- I like to do this in my kitchen aid mixer with the flat beater for about 1 min on speed 2
- Lay out tortillas and scoop mixture evenly among all tortillas.
- Roll each tortilla and place inside a greased 9 x 13 baking dish.
- In a blender, add remaining enchilada sauce, greek yogurt, lime juice, and cilantro. Blend to make a creamy sauce. Pour the sauce evenly over the top of all enchiladas.
- Sprinkle the remaining cheese over the top of all enchiladas.
- Bake for about 20 minutes or until the cheese is melted and tortillas are crispy. Let cool for about 10 minutes.
- Top with cilantro, lime, and avocado if you wish!
- ENJOY!
