Chicken Enchiladas
8 ingredients
22 steps
Ingredients
- 3 large chicken breasts (or 4 med to small)
- 28 oz Mild Red Enchilada Sauce
- 3 cup Shredded Cheese (or 4 cups, I like the Fiesta Blend, but Cheddar is fine too)
- 8 Burrito Style Flour Tortillas
- 1 box Zateran's Spanish Rice
- 1 can diced tomatoes (I like the ones with the green chilies)
- 1 Water
- 1 Butter (optional)
Directions
-
1Boil the chicken breasts until cooked (usually 20-30 mins).
-
2(Feel free to grill or bake if you prefer.)
-
3Make the Zateran's rice according to the instructions on the box.
-
4Make the rice in a larger pan than what seems necessary (all the other ingredients will be added to this).
-
5Preheat oven to 350
-
6While the rice is cooking shred the cooked chicken.
-
7(Or dice it if you prefer that texture.)
-
8When rice is done, add shredded (or diced) chicken, half of your cheese, and half of your enchilada sauce.
-
9Stir it all together.
-
10(This is a good opportunity to add any other ingredients you might enjoy such as, thawed/cooked corn, beans, or cilantro.)
-
11Grease a 9 x13 pan.
-
12Using a large serving spoon, spoon the rice mixture into the tortillas.
-
13(If the tortillas are stiff you can heat them in the microwave a little to soften them.)
-
14As you roll reach tortilla up, place it into the 9x13 pan.
-
15(I usually get about 8 tortillas, but they are pretty large.)
-
16Once the pan is full of tortillas (I do end up using all of the rice mixture for that), pour the rest of the enchilada sauce over the top of them, evenly.
-
17Top the pan with the rest of the cheese
-
18Cover the pan (aluminium foil works well) and place it in the preheated oven (350) and bake for 30 mins.
-
19(I usually cover the pan with aluminum foil for the first 20 mins, then I take it off for the last 10 mins, I switch my oven to broil for the last 5 mins because I love over cooked cheese, but all that isn't necessary, you can just cover it if you want.)
-
20Serve warm.
-
21I like to top them with sour cream and avocados.
-
22Sometimes hot sauce or salsa.
