For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of smoked paprika to the cream cheese mixture. If you prefer a spicier enchilada, use a hot green enchilada sauce or add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the chicken filling. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave until heated through.
