Delicious and flavorful, enchiladas are a traditional Mexican dish featuring rolled tortillas filled with seasoned chicken and topped with tangy enchilada sauce and melted cheese.
Ingredients:
- 12 corn tortillas
- 2 cups cooked and shredded chicken (or any other protein of your choice)
- 1 cup grated cheese (such as Cheddar or Monterey Jack)
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 can (14 ounces) enchilada sauce
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional toppings: sour cream, chopped cilantro, sliced jalapeños
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, and cook until they are softened and fragrant.
- Add the shredded chicken to the skillet and season with salt and pepper. Stir well to combine and cook for a few minutes until the chicken is heated through. Remove from heat.
- Warm the corn tortillas: You can do this by wrapping them in a clean kitchen towel and microwaving for 1 minute, or by heating them on a dry skillet for a few seconds on each side until they become pliable.
- Take a tortilla and spoon a generous amount of the chicken mixture onto the center. Roll it up tightly and place it seam-side down in a greased baking dish. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and chicken mixture.
- Pour the enchilada sauce over the rolled tortillas, making sure to cover them evenly. Sprinkle the grated cheese on top.
- Cover the baking dish with foil and place it in the preheated oven. Bake for about 20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese turns golden and slightly crispy.
- Remove the enchiladas from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.
- Garnish with your desired toppings, such as sour cream, chopped cilantro, or sliced jalapeños.
