My family likes these enchiladas so much that they request a turkey dinner several times a year just so I'll make this dish with the leftovers. I usually double it because I feed three growing boys-two teenagers and my husband! -Beverly Matthews, Pasco, Washington

Steps:

  • In a small saucepan cook onion, covered, in a small amount of water over medium heat until tender; drain.
  • In a medium mixing bowl, stir together the cream cheese, the 1 tablespoons.
  • water, cumin, pepper, and salt.
  • Stir in the cooked onion and chicken.
  • Wrap the tortillas in foil.
  • Heat in a 350 degree oven for 10 to 15 minutes or until softened (if using a microwave, wrap the tortillas in a microwave-safe paper towel and micro-cook on high for 30 to 60 seconds until softened).
  • Meanwhile, spray a 9 x 13 baking dish with non-stick coating.
  • For each enchilada, spoon approximately 1/4 cup of the chicken mixture onto one tortilla; roll up.
  • Place the tortilla, seam side down, in the baking dish.
  • Repeat with the remaining filling and tortillas.
  • For the sauce, in a medium mixing bowl combine soup, sour cream, milk, and jalapeno peppers; pour mixture over the enchiladas.
  • Bake covered, in a 350 degree oven for about 40 minutes or until heated through.
  • Sprinkle with the cheese.
  • Bake the enchiladas, uncovered, for 4 to 5 minutes more until the cheese is melted.
  • Garnish with cilantro, parsley, tomatoes, and sweet peppers if desired.
  • NOTE: Usually I don't have chicken prepared in advance, so I use 4 chicken breast halves and sprinkle them with salt, pepper, and cumin.
  • I either saute these or grill them until no longer pink.
  • I shred the meat and proceed as usual with the recipe.
  • The time to make does not include this step.

I found this recipe in an old Betty Crocker grocery store recipe book (my friend gave me a huge pile of them, so I have made quite a few). This is a very different and much lower fat version than the ones that use cream of chicken soup. My whole family enjoyed these, even the 5 year old!
