Description
These are the best chicken enchiladas you will ever have! I created this recipe one day by accident, and it’s now a family favorite. Try it, you won’t be disappointed!
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 cup white rice
- 1 (14.5 ounce) can chicken broth
- 3 boneless chicken breast halves, boiled and cubed
- 1 pound Monterey Jack cheese
- 1 (11 ounce) can sweet corn, drained
- 1 (24 ounce) jar green enchilada sauce
- 24 (6 inch) corn tortillas
Instructions
- In a large skillet
- saute rice with butter or margarine. Add chicken broth and simmer over low heat for 15 to 20 minutes
- or until rice is cooked and tender. Let cool.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Cube 3/4 pound of the cheese; shred the remaining 1/4 pound cheese and set aside. Combine chicken
- 3/4 pound cubed cheese
- corn
- cooled rice and 1/4 cup sauce in a large bowl. Mix together. Warm tortillas in the microwave for 2 minutes and spread another 1/4 cup sauce in the bottom of a 9×13 inch baking dish.
- Place a little of the chicken mixture on each tortilla and roll up. Place filled tortillas (as many as will fit) in the baking dish. Sprinkle with 1/4 pound shredded cheese and top with any remaining sauce
- pouring evenly over all. (Freeze remaining tortillas for future green sauce enchiladas!)
- Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 30 minutes.
