Instructions:
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius).
- Prepare Chicken Filling:
- Combine the shredded chicken and 1 cup of cheese in a mixing bowl.
- Fill and Roll the Tortillas:
- Fill each tortilla with the chicken and cheese mixture, then roll it up. Place the filled tortillas in a greased 9×13-inch baking dish.
- Make White Enchilada Sauce:
- In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter.
- Stir in the flour and whisk for about 1 minute.
- Gradually add the chicken broth while whisking.
- Cook the mixture over high heat until it thickens and starts bubbling.
- Remove the skillet from the heat and add sour cream and diced green chiles. Be careful not to overheat, as sour cream can curdle at high temperatures.
- Pour Sauce and Add Cheese:
- Pour the creamy sauce mixture evenly over the enchiladas in the baking dish.
- Sprinkle the remaining cheese on top of the enchiladas.
- Bake and Broil:
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-23 minutes, or until the enchiladas are heated through and the cheese is melted.
- If you’d like, broil for an additional 3 minutes to brown the cheese on top.
- Serve:
- Let the enchiladas cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your delicious Cream Cheese Chicken Enchiladas!
