Chicken Enchiladas Recipe



Quote For The Day:


 

"Let’s get one thing straight: Mexican food takes a certain amount of time to cook. If you don’t have the time, don’t cook it. You can rush a Mexican meal, but you will pay in some way. You can buy so-called Mexican food at too many restaurants that say they cook Mexican food. But the real food, the most savory food, is prepared with time and love and at home. So, give up the illusion that you can throw Mexican food together. Just understand that you are going to have to make and take the time." - Denise Chavez

 


Food For Thought:



Kielbasa and potatoes with cheese


A friend at work shared a dish she put together. She always shares her food with us. She doesn't share every day but she does often. We are very grateful to eat the food she brings. The Kielbasa and potatoes is not a written recipe. She said it was something that she put together because she had the ingredients and needed to make something for the week.

There is not a good segue into what I want to share with you. I received news from one of my daughters. She is a deli-manager at a local restaurant. She told me they are closing the doors. I am sad to hear this. I hate it that she will be losing her job. She enjoyed her deli tasks and made good work friends.

The local restaurant has been open for many years. The restaurant was shut down last year for over 6 months for remodeling. I heard the cost of remodeling caused a great amount of debt and that is the reason for closing the business now.

My daughter will have to look for a different job. I know that feeling well. I lost a job many years ago at a company I was planning to stay with until retirement. They moved the company to Mexico. I was very disappointed too. I was left to looking for a different job that I could work at.

One things that never changes about life is that there is always change. We must learn to pivot and adjust our sales. We do the best we can do.

My Thoughts On Chicken Enchiladas:



When I go to a Mexican restaurant, if I do not order beef enchiladas, I order chicken enchiladas. I also love the steak burritos if they are available. What I love most about chicken enchiladas is the seasoning flavor that is put into the chicken when it is cooked. The chopped chilies and creamy sauce added with melted cheese tops it off. I must have corn chips and cheese with my chicken enchiladas. Are you craving this food yet? This is a great recipe if you are in the mood for a Mexican dish. Give it a try and share your experience with me. I would love to see your pictures.



Chicken Enchiladas Recipe - (Mexican Food)

4-6 servings



Ingredients:



  • 1 whole chicken (2 1/2-3 pounds, skinned, boneed and cooked, you can use a pre-made rotisserie chicken for this)
  • 1 package cream cheese (8 ounces)
  • 1 can RO-TEL (diced tomatoes and green chilies)
  • 8 flour tortillas (8-inch)
  • 1 sour cream (8 ounces)
  • 1 cup Cheddar cheese (grated)
  • Chopped scallions
  • Sliced ripe olives


Instructions:



Dice the chicken. Combine the cream cheese and 1/2 can RO-TELL in a saucepan. Cook it over low heat until the cheese melts. Stir in the chicken, and cook until it is heated through. Place about 3 tablespoons of chicken mixture down the middle of each tortilla. Roll the tortilla tightly, and place them in a single layer in a shallow baking dish. Combine the sour cream and the remaining RO-TEL. Cook it over low heat until it is warm. Pour it over the tortillas, and top it with grated cheese. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes. Garnish with olives and scallions.



Keep on cooking!
