- 1 yellow chile (guero)
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1/2 cup fresh cilantro leaves, loosely packed
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 6 (6-inch) corn tortillas
- 2 store-bought rotisserie chicken breasts, skinned and shredded (to yield 1 1/2 cups)
- 1/2 cup Mexican crema or sour cream
- 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Put the tomatillos, onion, serrano, yellow chile and 3/4 cup water in a medium, heavy saucepan.

- Heat the oil in a small skillet over medium-high heat.
- Fry the tortillas until golden but still pliable, about 10 seconds per side.
- Transfer to paper towels to drain.
- Put the tortillas on a work surface.
- Divide the shredded chicken evenly among the tortillas and roll up each like a cigar.
- Spread 1/3 cup sauce in a 9 by 13-inch glass baking dish.
- Arrange the enchiladas, seam-side down, in one layer snugly inside the dish.
- Pour the remaining sauce over the enchiladas.
- Drizzle with the Mexican crema and sprinkle the cheese all over.
- Bake until the cheese melts and starts to brown in spots, about 30 minutes.
- Serve immediately.
