CHICKEN ENCHILADAS
Entrees
Contributed by: Tammy Dickerson
Ingredients:
3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
4 or 5 TBS oil
1 small onion, quartered
1 can tomatoes with chilis
JalapeƱos, optional
Seasoned salt, to taste
Pepper, to taste
1 28-ounce can enchilada sauce
10 ounces shredded Mexican melting cheese
Tortillas
2 TBS sour cream
Diced green onions
Boil the chicken until done; set aside to cool. When cool, shred the chicken and saute in a frying pan with the oil, onions, tomatoes, jalapenos, seasoned salt and pepper. Add 3?4 cup of the enchilada sauce, cover and cook on medium heat until onions are tender. Put mixture in a bowl and set aside.
Mix together the remaining enchilada sauce and sour cream in a bowl the same diameter as the tortillas. Dip each tortilla in the sauce mixture and lay flat on a baking sheet. Spread about four spoonfuls of the chicken mixture onto the tortilla and top with cheese. Fold the sides over and roll so all sides are closed. Place in a greased baking pan; repeat with remaining tortillas. Pour the leftover sauce over the tortillas and top with remaining cheese.
Bake at 350 degrees until the cheese is melted. Top with green onions and serve with sour cream.
