Description

A decadent, cheesy twist on white chicken enchiladas, layered as a casserole for maximum creaminess and ease of preparation.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 cups cooked shredded chicken
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 4 oz canned diced green chiles
  • 2 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
  • 1012 corn tortillas
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350F (175C).
  2. In a medium bowl, beat together softened cream cheese, sour cream, and diced green chiles until smooth.
  3. Stir in garlic powder and cumin until well combined.
  4. Spread a small amount of the creamy mixture on the bottom of a 9×13 inch baking dish.
  5. Lay a layer of corn tortillas over the sauce, overlapping slightly.
  6. Spread half of the shredded chicken over the tortillas, then top with half of the cheese blend and a layer of sauce.
  7. Repeat the layers: tortillas, remaining chicken, more sauce, and the remaining cheese blend.
  8. Bake for 25-30 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and golden. Broil for 2 minutes if extra browning is desired.
