Description
These Best White Rotisserie Chicken Enchiladas are creamy, cheesy, and packed with flavor, making them a perfect weeknight dinner option.
Ingredients
9 flour tortillas (I recommend Mission soft taco size)
3.5 cups chicken (shredded into 1-inch bite-sized pieces)
4.5 oz cream cheese (softened to room temperature
about 70°F)
2 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
1.25 cups monterey jack cheese (freshly shredded for better melting)
4 tbsp butter (I like Kerrygold unsalted for a richer sauce)
4 tbsp flour
1 tbsp taco seasoning
14.5 oz chicken broth (I use Swanson Less Sodium)
3/4 cup sour cream
4 oz green chiles
1.25 cups monterey jack cheese
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, cream cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, and 1.25 cups shredded monterey jack cheese.
- Divide the chicken mixture among the flour tortillas, rolling them tightly and placing them seam-side down in a baking dish.
- For the sauce, melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat, then whisk in the flour and taco seasoning until smooth.
- Gradually add the chicken broth to the saucepan, whisking continuously until the sauce thickens.
- Stir in the sour cream, green chiles, and the remaining 1.25 cups of monterey jack cheese until smooth.
- Pour the sauce evenly over the rolled enchiladas in the baking dish.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the enchiladas are bubbly and golden.
- Let cool for a few minutes before serving.
