Creamy white chicken enchiladas that are a comforting and quick family-friendly dish perfect for weeknight dinners.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups rotisserie chicken, shredded
  • 8 flour tortillas
  • 1 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (e.g., Monterey Jack or Cheddar)
  • 1 cup green enchilada sauce

  2. Combine the shredded chicken, cream cheese, half of the sour cream, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper in a mixing bowl until well blended.
  3. Lay a tortilla flat on a surface, spoon some of the chicken mixture into the center, and roll it up tightly, tucking in the ends.
  4. Place the rolled tortillas seam-side down in a greased baking dish.
  5. Pour the green enchilada sauce over the top, ensuring each tortilla is coated.
  6. Spread the remaining sour cream and shredded cheese on top.
  7. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until bubbly and golden brown.
