INSTRUCTIONS:

1st Step

Prepare a temperature in your oven of 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius).

2nd Step

Add the shredded chicken, cream cheese, sour cream, cheddar cheese, Monterey Jack cheese, diced green chilies, chopped onion, sliced garlic, salt, pepper, cumin powder, and chili powder to a big mixing bowl. Continue to stir until everything is well mixed.

3rd Step

To soften the tortillas and make them easier to work with, microwave them for approximately 30 seconds while they are wrapped in a wet paper towel. Because of this, rolling them will be much simpler.

4th Step

Each tortilla should be generously topped with the chicken mixture, rolled securely, and placed seam-side down in a greased baking dish. After the tortillas have been folded, equally distribute the enchilada sauce over them, being sure to cover each one entirely.

5th Step

Wrap the baking dish in aluminum foil and place it in an oven that has been prepared. Bake the enchiladas for approximately 25 to 30 minutes, or until they are hot all the way through.

6th Step

If you would like an additional punch of flavor and a hint of spice, you may top the dish with chopped fresh cilantro and sliced jalapenos, if preferred.

7th Step

Before serving the enchiladas, you should give them a few minutes to cool down. They may be accompanied by a side of rice, beans, or a fresh salad when they are served.
