Easy Chicken Enchiladas
- 1 each whole chicken cooked or rotisserie
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter
- 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 2 cup chicken broth
- 1 1/2 cup sour cream or low fat plain yogurt
- 3 cup Mexican cheese blend
- 1 packages small flour tortillas
- 1 can enchilada sauce
- If using a rotisserie chicken, pull meat from bone and shred.
- If using a whole chicken, you can broil or roast with seasonings you like.
- In skillet, make a roux using the unsalted butter and all purpose flour.
- To do this, on medium heat, melt butter and gradually add flour, stirring, ensuring there are no lumps.
- I generally cook this long enough to where it begins to turn a light brown, adding a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Once roux is formed, stir in sour cream or yogurt.
- Gradually add broth.
- Once combined, add 1 cup of cheese until melted and combined.
- Set aside.
- In a 9 x 13 oven safe dish, coat bottom with a portion of enchilada sauce - just coating the bottom.
- Turn on and preheat oven to 350.
- Take a flour tortilla and place shredded chicken in middle.
- Top chicken with good amount of cheese.
- Roll up and place in dish with enchilada sauce.
- Can get about 8 out of this.
- Pour cheese sauce made in skillet over top of rolled tortillas.
- Top with remaining shredded cheese.
- (Option: pour remaining enchilada sauce on top too.)
- Bake for 35 minutes or until the cheese is well melted.
- Enjoy!
