Advertisment

You’ll need:

10 soft taco shells (you can use any time, but I used cayenne pepper for extra spice)

2 cups of cooked, shredded chicken

2 cups of shredded cheese (I use Mexican Cheese)

3 tablespoons of butter

3 tablespoons of flour

16 oz of chicken broth (low sodium for healthy heart!)

8 oz sour cream

4-6oz of diced green chilles

Step-by-step:

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease your favorite casserole pan.
  2. Mix chicken and 1 cup of cheese. Roll up in tortillas and place in pan.
  3. In a sauce pan, melt butter, stir in flour and cook 1 minute until thick. Add the chicken broth and whisk to smooth. Heat over medium heat until thick and bubbly
  4. Stir in sour cream and chiles. Do NOT bring to boil, or your sour cream will curdle! Just make it warm and tiny bubbles.
  5. Pour the sauce over enchiladas and top with the remaining one cup of cheese
  6. Bake 24 minutes, and then high broil for 3 minutes to brown the cheese
