I love making these Enchiladas Enchiladas with left over chicken from a rotisserie chicken. We (a.k.a. my husband) picks the chicken. We put it into small 1 inch pieces and put it in the fridge for the round 2 meal.
Ingredients
- 2 cups Left over chicken (we use from a rotissarie)
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 -8oz shredded cheddar cheese
- 2-4 medium size Tortillas
- 16 oz sour cream
- 1 jar salsa
- 1 brick cream cheese
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Add the chicken, cumin and chili powder together.
- Mix together and add in 1/2 the cheese and mix.
- In a seperate bowl, mix the sour cream and salsa.
- Place a layer of the sour cream and salsa on the bottom of the pan you will be baking the enchiladas in.
- Take the tortillas and spread a layer of cream cheese on the tortilla.
- Add a good portion of chicken mix on the tortilla.
- Add 2 tablespoons of sour cream/salsa mix.
- Roll up the tortilla and place into pan.
- Repeat until the pan is full.
- Pour the sour cream/salsa on top of the tortillas evenly.
- Spread the remaining cheese on top of the tortillas.
- Bake for 30 minutes or until golden brown at 350 degrees.

It’s a good recipe for something different and with the cold winter here in Michigan, it’s good to have some comfort food.
You can make it with reduced call sour cream, cheese and cream cheese too.
this sounds delicious! and I love simple.
If it’s not in the crock pot, it has to be simple!

Enchiladas are the most common meal that my in-laws cook so I rarely ever try them at home. That way it’s a special treat for them at their grandparents. This looks like a great recipe though. My husband might want them someday.

How nice that your favorite dish is by your in-laws. I would love a meal made for me that was special too!
