Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 350°F. Pour half the mole sauce into the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish.

  2. Step 2

    Warm tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat, 30 seconds per side, to make them pliable.

  3. Step 3

    Fill each tortilla with 2-3 tbsp shredded chicken, roll tightly, and place seam-side down in the dish.

  4. Step 4

    Pour remaining mole sauce over the rolled enchiladas, then scatter cheese on top.

  5. Step 5

    Bake until cheese bubbles and edges brown slightly, about 12 minutes.

  6. Step 6

    Drizzle crema over the top, scatter cilantro, and serve hot.
