Ingredients
3
large chicken breasts
cooked and shredded
4
oz
can diced green chilis
½
cup
sour cream
20
oz
enchilada sauce
3 ½
cups
shredded cheddar cheese
1

Instructions
In a large bowl, combine the chicken, green chili, sour cream, 1/2 cup red enchilada sauce and 1/2 cup cheese and mix well.
In the bottom of (2) 9x13 aluminum baking tins, pour a thin layer of enchilada sauce evenly to prevent the tortillas from sticking.
To assemble the enchiladas, place a couple spoonfuls into a tortilla and roll it up and pace in baking tin.
Top with the remaining enchilada sauce (as much as desired) and cheese. Add a tight layer of cling wrap over followed by a layer of aluminum foil.
Label it with date made, recipe and cooking instructions.
Bake thawed or freshly made at 350℉ covered for 35 minutes, uncovered for 5 minutes.
