Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Heat oven to 375°F. Stir sour cream, half the jalapeños (plus 2 tbsp brine), and half the cheese in a bowl until smooth.

  2. Step 2

    Toss shredded chicken with remaining jalapeños, a pinch of salt, and pepper until evenly coated.

  3. Step 3

    Warm tortillas in a dry skillet 20 seconds per side until pliable. Lay flat on a work surface.

  4. Step 4

    Spoon 3 tbsp chicken down the center of each tortilla, roll tight, and arrange seam-side down in a buttered 9x13 baking dish.

  5. Step 5

    Pour sour cream mixture evenly over the rolls. Scatter remaining cheese on top.

  6. Step 6

    Bake until cheese melts and sauce bubbles at the edges, about 12 minutes. Garnish with cilantro and serve hot.
