Here's another one of my families favorite meals! The preparation is easy, and with just a few ingredients, you have a great homemade dinner.
All you need is:
4-5 Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast
1/2 Onion
Salt
Pepper
Salsa
1 Can of Enchilada sauce
Mexican Cheese (or whatever you like)
1 Tomato
I didn't take a picture of it, but I started with 5 boneless skinless chicken breasts. I realized after the fact that I could use this as a blog post! Anyway, I put the chicken in a pot of water and boiled it with the onion. When that was done cooking, I shredded the chicken and diced up the onion. I added in two small cans of Mexican Salsa (but you can also use any salsa you have on hand) and mixed it all in a bowl.

This is how it will look.
Get a flour tortilla and put the chicken mixture in the middle with shredded cheese.
My family prefers the green sauce as opposed to the red.
I put a thin layer of the sauce on the bottom of the dish so the tortillas don't stick to it when it bakes.
All done rolling!
I add the rest of the sauce on the enchiladas. You want to be sure that they are covered or it will be dry when it comes out of the oven.
Here comes the best part! Take more of that shredded cheese and don't hold back baby! You can never have enough cheese! Cover with foil, and bake it at 350 for 30 minutes.
While it is cooking in the oven, I cut up my tomatoes, and heat up my refried beans.
Mmmm! Look at that!
Plate it up with your beans, tortilla chips, sour cream, and whatever else you want, and dig in! They are even better the next day.

Mexican food is my fave....I think i will have to try your recipe. Looks good!
Mmmm... that really looks good. Thanks for the recipe. I think I'll try this for our Christmas day picnic with friends. I'm sure the kids would love this. Thanks. :D
Ooh, the cheese!!! Just looking at that makes my mouth water!
I am lovin' all of these quick and delicious meal ideas. Keep 'em coming! :)

Thanks for sharing!
We always do cheese enchiladas on Mexican night. My husband and kids absolutely love them!! They like the red sauce..here in the south you don't see the green sauce much. I have never even tried it though they do sell it in the stores. At the restaurants though all you see is red. Amazing the differences depending on where you live :)
Hi there!
I saw you on Helene's (Living Proof God Has a Sense of Humor) blogroll and wanted to stop by. This is so ironic b/c I've been craving chicken enchiladas and am going to make some tonight! Thanks for sharing the recipe!
p.s. I'm your newest follower & am looking forward to reading more. Have a great day!
Muy bien!!! That looks really easy, too, so that makes it taste good already! Thanks for sharing and have a great day ~ ♥
We LOVE Mexican food. We aren't big fans of enchilada sauce, so I use a mixture of sour cream and cream of chicken soup to put on top...along with a lot of cheese!
This looks sooooooo good, my husband is the best mexican food cook ever! I can't even try to top him.
awww wish I could taste that! looks really yummy :)
