Cooking Tools Required

12-inch saute pan, 9x13 inch glass baking dish, Cutting board, Ladle, Measuring cups and spoons, Microwave, Oven, Pie Plate, Top Stove

Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoon avocado oil
  • 1 1/2 pound boneless skinless chicken breast
  • 1/2 teaspoon Kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon dry oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon mild New Mexico chili powder
  • 5 canned whole green chiles seeded and coarsely chopped
  • 2 canned chipotle chiles seeded and minced
  • 28 ounce canned stewed tomatoes
  • 1/2 teaspoon all-purpose flour
  • 16 corn tortilla
  • 1 1/2 cup canned enchilada sauce
  • 1 cup shredded monterey jack cheese

For garnish:

  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro chopped

Instructions

  • 1. Coat large saute pan with oil. Season chicken with salt and pepper. Brown chicken over medium heat, allow 7 minutes each side or until no longer pink. Sprinkle chicken with cumin, oregano, and chili powder before turning. Remove chicken to a platter, allow to cool.
  • 2. Add chiles, stir well to combine. Add canned tomatoes, saute 1 minute.
  • 3. Pull chicken breasts apart by hand into shredded strips. Add shredded chicken to saute pan, combine with vegetables. Dust the mixture with flour to help set.
  • 4. Microwave tortillas on high for 30 seconds. This softens them and makes them more pliable. Coat the bottom of 2 (13 by 9-inch) pans with a ladle of enchilada sauce. Using a large shallow bowl, dip each tortilla in enchilada sauce to lightly coat. Spoon 1/4 cup chicken mixture in each tortilla. Fold over filling, place 8 enchiladas in each pan with seam side down. Top with remaining enchilada sauce and cheese.
  • 5. Bake for 15 minutes in a preheated 350 degree F oven until cheese melts. Garnish with cilantro an sour cream before serving.
Reheating Instructions
Heat in the oven at 350 degrees for 10-15 minutes until heated through.
