Enchiladas Verdes, Mexican Green Enchiladas

Ingredients that Make Magic

Before we start rolling those tortillas, let’s gather our magical ingredients:

  • 10 corn tortillas
  • 2 cups cooked shredded chicken (feel free to use leftovers)
  • 1 cup green salsa (store-bought or homemade, we don’t judge!)
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 2 cups shredded cheese (Mexican blend works wonders)
  • 1/2 cup chopped onion
  • Fresh cilantro for garnish (if you’re feeling fancy)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Let’s Roll ‘Em Up!

Now that we have our ingredients, let’s get to the fun part — the assembly!

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). We want it nice and toasty, just like your favorite blanket on a winter’s day.
  2. Lightly heat the corn tortillas in a skillet for a few seconds on each side to make them pliable. We don’t want any breaking during the rolling process!
  3. Take a tortilla, add a few spoonfuls of shredded chicken, a dollop of green salsa, and sprinkle some onions and cheese on top. Roll it up tightly and place it seam-side down in a baking dish. Repeat until you have a beautiful lineup of enchiladas.
  4. Once all the tortillas are rolled and snugly placed in the dish, pour the remaining green salsa over the top and sprinkle the rest of the cheese. If you’re feeling adventurous, add some green salsa on top for extra zest!
  5. Cover with foil and pop in the oven for about 20 minutes. Then, remove the foil and let it bake for an additional 10 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. It’s going to smell divine!
  6. After you’ve pulled them out of the oven, let them cool for a minute (or die of anticipation). Top with sour cream and fresh cilantro before serving!
