By: Brenda 
"Shredded chicken, fresh cilantro, green chile salsa and jalapeno salsa flavor these sour cream enchiladas. They are very easy to make, and are for lunch the next day. They are somewhat spicy-hot and full of cilantro."

Original Recipe Yield 12 enchiladas
 

Ingredients

  • 1 bunch cilantro
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 2 (7 ounce) cans jalapeno salsa
  • 2 (7 ounce) cans prepared green chile salsa
  • 2 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, cooked and shredded
  • 1 onion
  • 12 (6 inch) flour tortillas
  • 2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese

Directions

  1. To Make Sour Cream Mixture: In a blender or food processor, puree cilantro, sour cream, jalapeno salsa and 1/2 can of the green chile salsa. Set aside.
  2. To Make Chicken Mixture: In a large bowl, combine shredded chicken, onion and the remaining 1 1/2 cans of green chile salsa. Mix well.
  3. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  4. Heat tortillas in conventional or microwave oven until soft. Pour enough of the sour cream mixture into a 9x13 inch baking dish to coat the bottom.

  5. Cover dish tightly with aluminum foil and bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for about 30 minutes, or until dish is heated through and bubbling.
