Chicken Enchiladas (by request)(super popular)


Probably one of my favorite meals because it's so easy and then we eat it for a couple days. Ann Dee, would this work for Sunday dinners?

Chicken Enchiladas

3 cups cooked and shredded chicken
1 cup sliced olives
2 cans diced green chiles (mild or medium)
1 bunch of chopped green onion
1 can red enchilada sauce
1 container sour cream
1 can cream of chicken soup
10-12 soft flour tortillas
1 cup shredded cheese for topping.
1 tsp. cumin powder

Mix shredded chicken, olives, green onion and 1 can green chiles in a bowl. Set aside. In another bowl, combine enchilada sauce, sour cream, 1 can green chiles, cumin powder and cream of chicken soup. Warm up tortillas. For each enchilada, put about a half cup of chicken mixture inside and a dollop of the sauce. Wrap tortilla and place tightly next to each other in a 13x9 baking dish. Once dish is filled, pour remaining sauce over the top and cover with cheese. Bake at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes or until cheese is bubbling. [Note: I like to add extra cheese then serve it with guacamole][I also cook the chicken with an onion while Lennon naps]

Is the same your mom does? I've made this a few times for Sunday dinner when Cam's family comes and I LOVE it. Everyone else does too except the kids. We make quesadillas for them. Too creamy. Hmmm. I was probably the same way when I was little. I do love this recipe.

I am excited to make this for dinner tonight. The picture looks really yummy. It is fast Sunday. I love the word "dollop."
