- Add the tomato sauce, water, chili powder, oregano, garlic powder and salt to taste.
- Then turn on the oven to 350F for preheating.
- Simmer, uncovered, for 10 minutes, then add the chicken and sour cream.
- Mix well and set aside.
- Combine the half-and-half and broth in a saucepan and heat.
- Make a paste (separately) with the remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons of flour and the same amount of butter.
- Add the broth mixture to the flour-and-butter mixture and stir until thickened.
- Dip the tortilla shells into the mixture, then spoon 1/2 cup of that yummy stuff onto each tortilla, roll and place, seam side down, in a baking dish.
- Pour the remaining sauce over the enchiladas and sprinkle with cheese.
- Bake for 20 minutes, or broil until the cheese is melted.
