Chicken Enchiladas

You could say these are not totally homemade… I bought the seasoning pack… But I made them at home!  You decide!?!  I make these for the family probably once to twice a month…. It’s always a great meal to make up and freeze and have for a back up!  I’ve been know to double up the recipe when I’m making them so I can do just that!

Chicken Enchildas 014

Here is what you’ll need:

McCormick s Enchilada seasoning pack

8 oz. can Tomato sauce

1 1/2 cups Water

1-2 boiled shredded Chicken breast

Corn tortillas

shredded Cheese

little oil for frying (optional)

Oven temp 350 degrees

Easy enough right!  Doesn’t take much for these… Just some love from the cook to put them together!!

Over medium heat quickly fry your tortilla ... You don't want them to brown you want them soft still... Really just about 30 seconds on both sides!
