Ingredients:
- 1 pounds - Chicken diced
- 1 - Medium Onion chopped
- 3 cloves - Garlic minced
- 1 tablespoons - Vegetable Oil
- 8 - Flour Tortillas softened
- 1 1/2 cups - Grated Mexican blend Cheese divided
- 1/4 cups - Butter
- 1/4 cups - Flour
- 1 cans - Chicken Broth 15 ounces
- 1 cups - Sour Cream
- 1 cans - Chopped green chilies 4 ounces
- 1 1/2 teaspoons - Chili Powder *Optional for added spice
Directions:
In frypan, cook chicken, onion and garlic together in oil over medium-high heat until chicken is just done.
Divide cooked chicken evenly between 8 tortillas; add 1 1/2 tablespoons cheese to each tortilla.
Roll enchiladas and place seam-side down in 9x13" baking dish that has been greased with butter.
Melt butter in a medium saucepan; stir in flour to make a roux; stir and cook until bubbly; gradually whisk in chicken broth then bring to boiling, stirring frequently.
Remove from heat; stir in sour cream and green chiles; pour sauce evenly over enchiladas. (Optional: add 1 1/2 teaspoons of chili powder for extra spiciness)
Top with remaining 3/4 cup cheese (baking dish may be double-wrapped and frozen at this point) and bake at 400F for 20 minutes until cheese is melted and sauce near edges of baking dish is bubbly.
