Comforting and flavorful cheesy rotisserie chicken enchiladas that are easy to prepare using pre-cooked chicken.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 cups rotisserie chicken, shredded
  • 8 pieces corn tortillas
  • 2 cups shredded cheese (mix of cheddar and mozzarella)
  • 1 can (10 oz) enchilada sauce (red or green)
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup diced onions
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Fresh cilantro for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add diced onions and minced garlic, cooking until fragrant.
  3. Stir in the shredded rotisserie chicken, seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
  4. Pour half of the enchilada sauce into the greased 9×13 inch baking dish.
  5. Fill each corn tortilla with the chicken mixture and a sprinkle of cheese. Roll them tightly and place seam-side down in the dish.
  6. Pour the remaining enchilada sauce over the top and sprinkle with the remaining cheese.
  7. Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 20 minutes. After that time, remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  8. Let cool for a few minutes, garnish with fresh cilantro, and serve.

Notes

For a twist, mix a bit of enchilada sauce into the chicken before filling the tortillas. These enchiladas freeze well; prepare a batch for a future meal.
