Delight in the flavors of Swiss enchiladas filled with seasoned chicken and roasted poblanos, topped with creamy cheese.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 chicken cutlets (4 boneless breast sliced in half)
  • 2 poblano chiles, stemmed
  • 1 onion
  • 1 Tbsp chicken bouillon powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 12 corn tortillas
  • 2 tsp vegetable oil
  • 1 cup Chihuahua or Mexican melting cheese
  • 28 oz tomatillos (1 can)
  • 8 oz cream cheese (1 block)
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 1 jalapeño
  • 1 serrano
  • 1 bunch cilantro
  • 1 cup water
  • 2 Tbsp chicken bouillon powder
  • Pinch salt (or to taste)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F.
  2. Thinly slice one poblano chile and the onion. Season them with salt and pepper, placing them in a bowl and setting aside.
  3. Season the chicken cutlets with salt, pepper, and one tablespoon of chicken bouillon powder. Arrange the seasoned chicken in a baking dish.
  4. Bake the chicken, poblano, and onion for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and loses its pink hue.
  5. Once cool enough to handle, shred the chicken using your fingers or two forks. Combine this shredded chicken with the sliced poblano and onion you set aside earlier.
  6. For the poblano and cream cheese sauce, blend the remaining poblano, onion, garlic, jalapeño, serrano, cilantro, water, chicken bouillon powder, and salt until smooth.
  7. Pour the blended sauce over the shredded chicken mixture, ensuring everything is fully coated.
  8. In a skillet, heat the vegetable oil and fry the corn tortillas briefly until soft.
  9. Fill each tortilla with the chicken mixture, roll them up, and place them in a baking dish seam-side down.
  10. Top the enchiladas with Chihuahua or Mexican melting cheese.
  11. Bake for an additional 15-20 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.

Notes

Customize the filling by adding black beans or corn for added texture. Top with fresh cilantro for extra flavor.
