These chicken enchiladas are a classic Mexican recipe, best enjoyed hot and, if you like, a little spicy. They make a delicious dinner for any day—I hope you like them and enjoy making them! They’re super easy to prepare, even if you don’t have much cooking experience, just like me! :D

Steps

30 minutes
  1. 1

    Peel the garlic and wash the chiles. Boil them in a little water until they are soft.

  2. 2

    In a skillet with a little hot oil, add the onion and garlic. Then add the tomato, followed by the chicken.

  3. 3

    In a blender, combine the salsa verde (mine wasn’t very green because I also added a red tomato) and the chiles. Blend until smooth.

  4. 4

    Heat the sauce in a saucepan and dip each tortilla in the sauce. At the same time, in a skillet with a little olive oil, briefly fry the sauced tortillas, but don’t let them get too crispy.

  5. 5

    Fill each tortilla with the chicken, tomato, onion, and garlic mixture. Sprinkle shredded cheese on top, roll up the tortillas, and place them seam-side down in a baking dish.

  6. 6

    Once all the tortillas are filled and in the dish, pour the remaining sauce over them and add more shredded cheese. Bake at 400°F (200°C) for about 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

  7. 7

    That’s it! Serve with rice and beans on the side if you’re extra hungry.
