Description

A quick and comforting casserole featuring shredded chicken in a rich queso-style sauce, perfect for family dinners.


Ingredients

  • 2 cups Shredded Chicken
  • 1 packet Taco Seasoning
  • 1 cup Sour Cream
  • 1 cup Shredded Cheddar Cheese
  • 1 can Chopped Green Chilies
  • 1 package Velveeta Cheese
  • 1 can Diced Tomatoes with Green Chilies
  • 8 Tortillas


Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  2. Combine Velveeta, sour cream, and diced tomatoes with green chilies in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir until melted and smooth.
  3. Stir in shredded cheddar, chopped green chilies, and taco seasoning. Adjust seasoning as needed.
  4. Toss shredded chicken with two-thirds of the queso sauce.
  5. Warm tortillas and spoon 1/3 to 1/2 cup of chicken mixture down each; roll and place seam-side down in the baking dish.
  6. Pour remaining queso sauce over enchiladas and sprinkle with remaining cheddar.
  7. Bake uncovered for 20–25 minutes, until bubbly and golden.
  8. Let sit for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

Use warm, pliable tortillas to prevent tearing. Let the baked dish rest for 5 minutes before slicing for easier servings.
