Ingredients

  • 2 cups rotisserie chicken, shredded
  • 2 cups salsa verde
  • 8 count corn tortillas (6-inch)
  • 2 cups shredded Oaxaca or mozzarella cheese
  • ½ cup diced white onion
  • ¼ cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • ½ cup crema or sour cream

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 425°F. Mix shredded chicken with half the salsa verde and the diced onion in a bowl.

  2. 2

    Pour remaining salsa verde across the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish to coat evenly.

  3. 3

    Warm tortillas for 30 seconds in the microwave or a dry skillet so they're pliable.

  4. 4

    Fill each tortilla with 2 tbsp chicken mixture, roll tightly, and lay seam-side down in the baking dish.

  5. 5

    Top enchiladas evenly with cheese. Bake for 12–14 minutes until cheese melts and edges bubble slightly.

  6. 6

    Drizzle crema across the top and scatter cilantro. Serve hot directly from the dish.
