Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Stir salsa verde and sour cream together in a bowl until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  2. Step 2

    Heat a 12-inch skillet over medium. Warm tortillas one at a time directly over the flame or in the skillet until pliable, ~30 seconds per side.

  3. Step 3

    Spread a thin layer of salsa-cream sauce on the bottom of the skillet. Lay one tortilla down, fill with 2 tbsp chicken and 1 tbsp cheese, roll tightly, and place seam-side down.

  4. Step 4

    Repeat with remaining tortillas until the skillet is full. Pour remaining sauce over the enchiladas and top with remaining cheese.

  5. Step 5

    Cover with foil and bake at 400°F for 8–10 minutes until cheese melts and edges bubble.

  6. Step 6

    Remove foil. Top with jalapeño slices and cilantro if desired. Serve hot.
