Green Chili Enchiladas
- 2 whole Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breasts, Cooked And Shredded
- 1 can Diced Green Chilis (4 Oz Can)
- 1/2 cups Plain Greek Yogurt
- 2- 1/2 Tablespoons Lime Juice
- 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
- 1/2 teaspoons Chili Powder
- 1/2 teaspoons Cumin
- 1 dash Coarse Sea Salt
- 3/4 cups Shredded Cheese (any Will Work, I Used A Mexican Blend)
- 1 package Corn Tortillas And/or Flour Tortillas (I Used 6 Small Corn Tortillas, And 4 Burrito Sized Flour Tortillas Or You Can Use All Of One Type)
- 2 cans (14 Oz. Size) Green Chili Sauce
- 1 bunch Cilantro, Chopped (optional)
- 1.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- 2.
- In a medium bowl combine shredded chicken, diced green chilies, yogurt, lime juice, garlic powder, chili powder, cumin, salt and cheese.
- 3.
- Get out two 8x8 glass baking dishes and spray each with your cooking spray.
- 4.
- Starting with the corn tortillas, put about 2 tablespoons of the chicken mixture at one edge of the tortilla, roll it up, and place it in the baking dish.
- (Tip: Microwave three corn tortillas at a time in between two pieces of damp paper towel for 25 seconds.
- This will soften them up so you can roll them up without getting any cracks in the tortilla).
- 5.
- Follow the same procedure with the flour tortillas, putting them into the second dish.
- Depending on the size you are using you may need more chicken mixture per tortillas than with the corn tortillas.
- 6.
- Spray the tops of the enchiladas with olive oil/cooking spray, and sprinkle with salt.
- 7.
- Put both dishes in the oven, with the corn enchiladas on the top rack to prevent cross contaminator.
- Bake for 10 minutes, then remove the dishes from the oven temporarily to pour the green chili sauce evenly over the enchiladas.
- Put sidhes back in the oven for about 5 minutes, until the sauce is heated.
- 8.
- Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro, if desired.
- Make sure you get out separate serving utensils for the corn and flour enchiladas!
- Preparation note: This recipe can be made gluten free with corn tortillas, with regular flour tortillas, or a combination of both with separate pans for the corn and flour enchiladas.
- Feel free to use just one tortilla variety in one pan, or follow the directions above for preparing two varietieswhatever suits your needs and tastes!
