Delicious and nutritious Chicken Enchiladas that are easy to prepare and packed with flavor.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups shredded chicken
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or Mexican blend)
  • 1 cup enchilada sauce
  • 8 flour or corn tortillas
  • 1/2 cup diced onions
  • 1/2 cup black beans (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Chopped cilantro for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Mix the shredded chicken, shredded cheese, diced onions, black beans (if using), garlic powder, cumin, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  3. Spread a little enchilada sauce on the bottom of a baking dish.
  4. Take each tortilla and fill it with the chicken mixture, rolling them up tightly.
  5. Place the rolled tortillas seam-side down in the baking dish.
  6. Pour the remaining enchilada sauce over the top, and sprinkle with any extra cheese if desired.
  7. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until heated through and cheese is bubbly.
  8. Garnish with chopped cilantro before serving.

Notes

For extra spice, add jalapeños or hot sauce to the chicken mixture. Whole wheat tortillas can be used for a lighter option.
