Growing up this was my family’s go-to recipe for any occasion. Not only are these easy to make, but in the end you have a delicious meal to share with friends and family!

Ingredients:

  • 1 23 oz. can of Cream of Chicken
  • 2 16 oz. Sour Cream Containers
  • 1 12 oz. bag of frozen corn
  • 2 7 oz. cans of green chiles
  • 1 package of corn tortillas
  • 1 pre-cooked chicken or you can boil one whole chicken (shredded chicken)
  • 4 cups of colby jack cheese (2 bags)
  • ¼ teaspoon of pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon of garlic powder

This recipe makes two containers of enchiladas, you can always freeze and later cook them the following week.

Mix all your ingredients together.

In a large bowl mix and combine the cream of chicken, sour cream, corn, green chiles, 2 cups (one bag of cheese), pepper, and garlic powder.

Afterwards, shred your chicken.

Place the cut corn tortillas in the dish.

Next, take your corn tortillas and cut them into squares.

On top of the corn tortillas spread the shredded chicken on top, followed by the creamy mix.

Then, start assembling the enchiladas in a baking dish. Place the squared tortillas across the whole dish until it’s fully covered. Next, make a layer of the shredded chicken right on top. Afterwards pour the creamy mix over the chicken and there’s your first layer.

Once you've done two layers, cover the top with shredded cheese.

Make another layer repeating these steps, and then spread cheese over the top and you’re done!

Lastly, cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake at 375 degrees for 40 minutes and enjoy!
