Easy Chicken Enchiladas Recipe

Hey guys, today I'm going to show you my super

easy

chicken

enchilada

recipe

and these are all the supplies I'm going to need today, so I choose to make

chicken

and shimada, but you can use any type of meat. For my ingredients, I have three large chicken breasts that I already cooked, so I thawed them, added a little salt and pepper, and then baked them at 400 degrees for 20 minutes, but again, like I said, you can use any type of meat you like. you want or you can just not eat meat and make cheese

enchiladas

or you can buy pre-cooked chicken breast, so that's up to you.

I have a fork on a knife and my cutting board. I have a large mixing bowl. I have my baking dish, which is a 9 by 13 dish. I have a bag of tortillas and these are flour tortillas, you can use any type, but these are the large fajitas, so they are big and there are ten can openers for my can of Angelotti sauce that I have in there, the one I'm using is the mild red sauce, so you can reuse any type of sauce you want and then I have an 8 ounce bag of Mexican style cheese mix , so now I'm going to go ahead and cut my chicken breasts into pieces and then I'm going to shred them by hand.

Okay, now we have all of our chicken shredded and you don't have to shred it by hand. You can use a food. food processor, if you will, I find that when I use the food processor, for some reason, the meat becomes too small, so I like to have it big like this and we're going to open our can of Angelotti sauce. I'm going to go ahead and pour half the can into our chicken mixture, go ahead and mix that in. I'm going to take our cheese and pour half the bag of cheese into the roll mix and you can certainly measure if you want.

I just look in the eye. okay, we're going to mix all that up now we're going to grab our tortillas and I forgot to tell you guys, I'm going to write it at the beginning of this video, but make sure you preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit while you're making the

enchiladas

and real quick, before you start. to roll up the enchiladas, we're going to go ahead and just cover the bottom of our baking dish with a little bit of sauce to keep it from sticking, so here we go. I'm going to go ahead and start filling our tortillas, so I'm going to go ahead and take a spoonful of the mixture.

Here do it twice and at the beginning you want to make sure you don't use too much because when you get to the end, when you have only a couple of tortillas left, you may not have enough mixture left if you want to go ahead and do that. I like to put them to the side so that it is easier for me to roll them right now. I have it rolled up. I like to put the seams side down, so here's the seam here on the baking dish. Let's go and then we'll go ahead and do that with all the other tortillas.

I'm going to speed this up. Just a little tip: when you put them in the baking dish, you will have to squeeze them together to fit all ten in there. Next, we'll take the rest of the sauce and just pour it over the enchiladas like this and then we'll take the remaining cheese and sprinkle it on top. Now this is what it looks like. We're going to go ahead and put it in the oven for about 15 to 20 minutes. You just want to be attentive. Keep going until it's nice and bubbly and then we'll come back when it's done, okay guys, so here's our finished product.

I let them bake for 20 minutes and now I'm letting them cool. I would suggest letting them cool for at least five to 10 minutes before serving, if you make it, tweet me some photos and if you have any
