(NOT TEX-MEX STYLE) CHICKEN ENCHILADAS
I live in deep South Texas just north of the Mexican border, so I am fairly well versed in cooking many kinds of Tex-Mex meals. But once in a while, I like to 'tweak' recipes and make something different for the sake of variety. I have also heard these enchiladas called "Yankee Enchiladas". I categorized this dish as "American" cuisine, as it is not really considered a Mexican style dish. They don't make it this way in Mexico.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Open cans of cream of chicken soup and green enchilada sauce and mix together until smooth. Open can of canned chicken breast chunks and empty the liquid only into the sauce mixture and stir in.
- Soften tortillas in the microwave for a few seconds to make them more pliable. With your hands, pull apart and shred the canned chicken chunks and place a small amount (about an ounce) in each of the tortillas. Spoon in about 1-2 Tbsps of the sauce on top of the chicken and then spread a little of the shredded cheese inside each enchilada. Roll up as tightly as possible.
- Arrange the enchiladas not too tightly in the bottom of a 10" X 10" baking dish or similar size, sprayed first with non-stick spray. Pour sauce over all, making sure sauce gets in between and all around the enchiladas. Sprinkle diced onion over all and then cover with the rest of the shredded cheese.
- Bake uncovered in 375 degree oven for about 45 to 55 minutes. The cheese on top should be a little brown and bubbly. Let sit on top of the stove for about 10 minutes, then serve hot. Best to use a wide spatula so they don't fall apart when serving.
- Recommend serving with hot Tex-Mex style refried beans and Mexican rice. You can garnish with a handful of diced green onion tops (optional). You can also serve with sliced black olives and with a dollop of sour cream.
- SIDE NOTE: If you prefer to do this, instead of using green enchilada sauce, buy a can of crushed tomatillos and add 3 or 4 tablespoons of your favorite salsa to it for flavor. You could also add a small can of mild diced green chilies if you want a little extra 'spice'. Then combine with your Cream of Chicken soup. I have done it either way and both are very good. Bon Apetit' Y'all!!
YUMMY TEX-MEX CHICKEN ENCHILADAS
Promise you'll like 'em! My mom found this recipe in a newspaper many years ago. It has been a favorite of mine all my life. It's simple, tasty, and makes great leftovers. You can add or subtract any of the ingredients to suit your taste. You might want to make a little extra, the filling makes a great dip and you may not be able to keep your fingers out of it! (prep time doesn't include cooking chicken).

CREAMY TEX MEX CHICKEN ENCHILADAS
This is the enchilada recipe my mom used when I was growing up. It is different in that is uses cream cheese. Oh it is so yummy....the memories just flood back. I believe it comes from a Pace Picante Tex Mex recipe. I like to serve it with my Lone Star Spanish Rice. Check it out in my recipes.

TEX-MEX ENCHILADAS
These are authentic Tex-Mex enchiladas as taught to me by a lady originally from Chihuahua, Mexico who then added a bit of Texas. They are super easy to put together and taste incredible! Watch out though, because there is nothing low-fat about them! I like to assemble these enchiladas in the morning or night before, come home and pop them in the oven. When cold, add 10 more minutes to the baking time. Leave out the onions for picky eaters.

Steps:
- Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Mix the chili and enchilada sauce together in a small saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally as it simmers.
- Heat the vegetable oil and chili powder together in a small skillet over medium heat. Gently lay a tortilla in the hot oil and cook until the tortilla starts to puff. Remove with a spatula and place on a plate. Immediately sprinkle about 1/4 cup Cheddar cheese and 1 tablespoon chopped onion down the center of the tortilla; roll the tortilla tightly around the mixture and place, seam-side down, into the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish. Repeat this process until all the tortillas are used.
- Sprinkle about 2/3 of the remaining Cheddar cheese over the rolled enchiladas. Pour the warm chili mixture evenly over the enchiladas. Scatter the remaining Cheddar cheese over the layer of the chili mixture.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the top is bubbling, 20 to 25 minutes.
