Cook Time20 minutes
Servings - 12 enchiladas

Ingredients 

  • 1 1/2 cups sour cream
  • 6 oz. can green chiles
  • 2 cups chicken stock
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded chicken
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 8 large or 12 small, flour tortillas
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 cups frozen corn side dish

Instructions

  • In large skillet, whisk sour cream, green chiles and 1 cup of chicken stock. Add more chicken stock until it comes to the consistency you want for your sauce. Add garlic powder and salt and pepper to taste.
  • Before adding the cooked and shredded chicken, save 1 cup of the sour cream sauce.
  • Stir chicken into the sauce and let simmer about 10 minutes, allow flavors time to infuse.
  • Spoon sour cream chicken sauce into tortillas. Roll and place "seam down" into a baking dish. 10 enchiladas fit comfortably in a 9x13 dish, 12 will fit if you tuck them in snugly.
  • Take the sour cream sauce that you removed and spread it over the tortillas.
  • Sprinkle cheese over the top and bake about 15-20 minutes at 350.
  • Cook corn as directed on package instructions.
  • Serve Sour Cream Chicken Enchiladas with Corn.
