Chicken Enchiladas
- 3 pieces Large Chicken Breasts
- 1/2 cups Butter
- 1 whole Small Onion
- 1 whole Anaheim Chili Pepper
- 13 cups Flour
- 2 cups Chicken Broth, Reserved From Chicken
- 1 can (4 Oz. Size) Diced Green Chilies
- 8 ounces, fluid Sour Cream
- 1 cube Chicken Bouillon
- 1 package Uncooked Flour Tortillas (10 Count)
- 1 pound Shredded Monterey Jack Cheese, Mozzarella Or A Blend
- In saucepan, cover chicken with water.
- Boil chicken breasts until cooked through, about 20 minutes.
- Reserve 2 cups of broth.
- Shred or cut into small pieces.
- Set the broth and chicken aside.
- In separate saucepan, melt butter on low heat.
- Add diced onions and Anaheim chili pepper and saute for two minutes.
- Add flour and stir or whisk well until somewhat thick.
- Add chicken broth, stir until thickened.
- Add can of chilies, sour cream and bouillon cube.
- Taste for salt and add it to taste if needed.
- Stir until everything is well combined and the bouillon cube is dissolved.
- Heat tortillas on a dry non-stick pan until golden brown on both sides.
- Pile the heated tortillas on top of each other and keep in a plastic bag to keep them from drying out.
- At this point I take a 1/2 cup measuring cup and measure out 8-10 equal portions of chicken on a cookie sheet so I dont run out of meat towards the end.
- Into the tortillas, add chicken, a large scoop of sauce and some cheese.
- Roll the tortilla up like a burrito as tight as you can so the filling stays inside.
- Set in a greased 9x13 pan.
- If you are making 10, youll need another small pan for the other 2 enchiladas.
- Pour remaining sauce over tortillas and sprinkle remaining cheese over the top.
- Bake at 375F for 20 minutes or until lightly browned.
- I like to keep them in there until the edges of the tortillas start to get brown and a little crispy.
- Let sit a few minutes before serving.
- And in case youre wondering, the leftovers are just as good the next day.
- *I highly recommend uncooked tortillas over regular flour tortillas.
- They taste much better.
