Steps:
- Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate. Season chicken with cayenne, salt, and black pepper.
- Place chicken on the preheated grill and cook until no longer pink in the center and juices run clear, 5 to 7 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Transfer to a plate and shred using 2 forks.
- Combine tomatillos, serrano peppers, vinegar, water, onion, garlic, and salt in a large pot over high heat and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until tomatillos are tender, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and chill in an ice bath until cool, 20 to 30 minutes. Add cilantro and lime juice. Blend salsa thoroughly using an immersion blender.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Mix shredded chicken, cream cheese, 4 ounces Mexican cheese, sour cream, 1/2 cup salsa, onion, and cayenne pepper together in a medium bowl.
- Pour just enough salsa into a 9x13-inch baking pan to thinly cover the bottom. Place a heaping spoonful of filling into each tortilla, roll, and place into the pan. Try to keep them from touching. Top with remaining salsa and Mexican cheese.
- Bake in the preheated oven until bubbly, 35 to 40 minutes.

SPICY CHICKEN ENCHILADAS
This is a delicious make-ahead enchilada and you can make 2 at once and freeze one for later for the same amount of effort. I must confess, I cut the ingredients listed in half and made one. Once I realized it was more effortless than I imagined I kicked myself for not going ahead with the second pan. I used creamed corn for fun and loved it. I also use my homemade taco seasoning mix recipe (Recipe #390613) in place of store-bought. Recipe courtesy of Family Feasts for $75 a Week, 2009.
