I love enchiladas, and I had 4 Poblanos from my CSA so I was really looking forward to trying this. Meh. Disappointingly bland.

Wow, what great flavor these had but had to tweak to get it not so spicey. For the sauce I used 4 pablanos and 8oz of free-fat sour cream, and the 1 cup of chicken stock. To that, in the blender, I added 1/2 can fat-reduced cream of chicken soup, 1 can of drained sweet corn and 1/2 can of tomato sauce. This made it so that it was mild enough to serve to my very picky husband. I put a non-stick skillet on HI and sprayed each corn tortilla with Pam so that they were tough enough to roll with the chicken. I also put a bit of cheese inside each enchilada. Placed in a 9x13 casserole and poured a little more sauce over and covered in cheese. Baked at 350 for 15 minutes. I served it with Mexican Rice II from this site. Made a delicious meal. I put all my tweaks so if the 4 pablanos are too hot for you just follow the recommends I put in this review.

Very Good! My family likes very spicy food so I tossed in a couple of super hot home grown chiles that are similar to chile de arbol or japanese chile peppers. Serranos would work well also. I topped them with the melted cheese, chopped onion and slices of avocados. I will surely make this again very soon.

This was delicious! I couldn't find poblano chilis, so I used jalapenos -- gave the dish quite a kick! I also popped this in the oven for about 5 minutes after they were rolled to let the cheese melt.

these were really good! loved the flavor of the sauce. i usually make enchiladas verdes, with tomatillos. where i'm at, tomatillos arent cheap! this was definitely AS good as that recipe, for much less money and effort. i did a couple things different. i didnt use chicken, i used shrimp. so i didnt need to cook the chicken in the onion, garlic, broth mixture. i just put a cup of broth with some garlic and onion in my blender at the same time as the sour cream and peppers. used flour tortillas, and didnt fry them in oil, just warmed them up in the micro. i mixed up a little corn/blackbean salsa to go on the insides. 2 chopped plum tomatoes 3/4 can of sweet corn 1/2 can black beans 1/2 chopped small red onion 1 teaspoon lime juice salt and pepper mix all ingredients. put this, cheddar cheese, and sauce on the insides of the enchiladas with the shrimp, topped them with more sauce and cheese, baked for 30 min. perfect!

While I did not follow recipe exactly, it got me on the right path, and the end result was excellent! My husband loved them, and my kids too. I purchased shredded chicken from HEB (fully cooked) which made that process easier! I also used a caldo de pollo boullion cube, in 2c of H2O w/ minced garlic, did the poblanos exactly like recipe, mixed w/ 1c of broth. Definitely softened tortillas (corn) in oil (best part)! Then I scooped in chicken and mexican style shredded cheese and poured sauce over topped w/ more chicken and cheese, placed in oven for 30min at 350. Next time though, I will make sauce a bit thinner consistency. Born and raised in SA, TX, and now living in RGV, TX; I have to say that these are awesome. I have never liked chicken enchiladas at restaurants. My fav is cheese enchiladas. As sides, I made some arroz and frijoles....great meal! Gracias Olga!

i followed this recipe exactly and was pleasantly surprised. the poblano sauce is not spicy but flavorful. if there was something i would change i would make a little more of it. i (unlike several reviewers) fried the tortillas and they were my favorite part so i would recommend it! And I stuck the pan in the oven for about 10 min to melt the cheese. Truthfully I didn't love it (it wasn't bad, just not amazing) but my husband did so I went ahead and gave it 5stars.

I finally made these enchiladas! I saved them to my recipe box back in 2006 and was always afraid to make them because the recipe seemed complicated. I am sure glad I tried it. These taste really excellent. I boiled the chicken and instead of cutting it into strips as suggested in the recipe, I shredded it. Also, after reading some reviews, I was tempted to skip frying the tortillas. I went with my instinct and followed the recipe on that one. I carefully fried each tortilla in the olive oil for just a bit. If you fry them too long they will get too crunchy. Everything else I did by the recipe and these were super delicious. Oh, I had a bit of jack cheese I wanted to use, so I shredded it and had enough to put some jack in with the shredded chicken for five of the ten enchiladas! Thanks, Olga! These are wonderful!

This was very good although I tweaked it a little. I boiled the chicken with the ingredients (also threw in a whole serrano chile, gives wonderful flavor without the heat). Then shredded the chicken and simmered it with half the sauce for about 30 minutes. Also used Jack cheese in place of mozzarella. Homemade rice and beans and it was a really nice mexican dinner, the family loved it!

I browned the chicken, sauted the onion and garlic, used flour tortillas instead of corn. Oh yeah, monterey jack cheese instead of mozzarella. Heated it in oven 359 degees for 20 minutes. Tasted good--really liked the sauce. Flour tortilla got a little mushey.

The taste of these enchiladas was great. The poblanos gives it a nice peppery flavor. I skipped the tortilla frying stage and that gave me hard time when I started rolling the tortillas, they were breaking apart. But I kept going and covered the whole thing with sauce and cheese and put in the oven like other reviewers had suggested. I will make this again following the recipe the the T.

Perhaps my expectations were too high for this recipe after reading the reviews! The chicken didn't have enough flavor so it made the whole enchilada kinda bland with the exception of the sourcream sauce - very yummy. Overall though I'd say they were OK. Must admit this was the first time I have actually cooked enchiladas so maybe I am to blame instead of the recipe!

I did not have pablano chilies so I used a can of green chilies, and this was still amazing! I did use a bit more cheese than called for and melted it in the oven for 5 minutes, but other than that I did not change a thing. I can't wait to try this with the pablanos!
