- 1/3 cup honey
- 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lime juice
- 2 teaspoons chili powder
- 2 teaspoons minced garlic

Spoon 2 to 3 spoonful enchilada sauce mixture over tortilla layer. Repeat layering with remaining chicken, 1/3 queso asadero, ending with a layer of dipped tortillas. Pour any remaining enchilada sauce mixture over tortillas. Sprinkle remaining 1/3 queso asadero over enchiladas.
