Ingredients

  • 2 cups cubed cooked chicken
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1 pinch ground black pepper
  • ½ cup vegetable oil for frying
  • 12 (5 inch) corn tortillas
  • 1 (4 ounce) can chopped green chilies, drained
  • 2 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese

Directions

Step 1
Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a 9×13 inch baking dish. Combine the chicken, sour cream, salt, and pepper in a bowl; set aside.

Step 2
Heat the oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Dip the corn tortillas into the hot oil one at a time until softened, about 10 seconds each.

Step 3
Spoon a heaping tablespoon of chicken mixture onto each tortilla, spread down the center and roll into a cylinder. Place seam side down into the prepared baking dish.

Step 4
When all tortillas are filled and rolled, sprinkle the green chiles over all and top with the shredded Monterey Jack cheese.

Step 5
Bake in the preheated oven until the cheese has melted and the enchiladas are hot, 12 to 15 minutes.
