Recipe View 5 mins Remove from oven and let rest for 5 minutes before serving. This allows the cheese sauce to set slightly and prevents burning your mouth. (5 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of chili powder or cumin to the chicken filling.
If you prefer a spicier kick, use a hotter green salsa or add a dash of your favorite hot sauce to the cream cheese mixture.
Feel free to substitute the cooked chicken cubes with shredded rotisserie chicken for a quicker preparation.
These enchiladas are also delicious with corn tortillas, though they may be more prone to tearing. Warm the corn tortillas slightly before filling to make them more pliable.
Garnish with chopped cilantro, diced tomatoes, or a dollop of sour cream for a beautiful presentation.

    These were so easy to make and everyone loved them! Definitely going to be a regular in our dinner rotation.

    I added some black beans and corn to the filling for extra veggies, and they turned out great!

  • Christian Stracke

    The white cheese sauce was a little too rich for my taste, so I thinned it out with a bit of milk. Perfect!

  • Reed Jaskolskirippin

    My kids are picky eaters, but they devoured these! A definite win!

  • Sunny Stanton

    I prepped these ahead of time and baked them when I got home from work. So convenient!
