This dish combines tender chicken with a deliciously creamy cheese sauce, all wrapped in soft tortillas for a comforting and satisfying meal. It’s an easy, cheesy delight that’s perfect for a cozy dinner!
Ingredients:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 8 small flour tortillas
- 2 cups shredded cheese (cheddar or Monterey Jack)
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 can (10.5-ounce) condensed cream of chicken soup
- 1 can (4-ounce) diced green chiles (optional)
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh cilantro for garnish
Step-by-Step Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- Season chicken breasts with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Cook in a skillet over medium heat until done, then shred or chop into bite-sized pieces.
- In a large bowl, mix cream of chicken soup, sour cream, diced green chiles, and half of the shredded cheese until smooth.
- Slightly warm the tortillas to make rolling easier. Place a portion of chicken in the center of each tortilla and roll up tightly. Place seam-side down in the prepared baking dish.
- Pour the cheese sauce over the tortillas, fully covering them. Sprinkle the remaining shredded cheese on top.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve hot.
Tips:
- For extra flavor, add a sprinkle of smoked paprika to the cheese sauce.
- Serve with salsa, guacamole, or a dollop of sour cream on the side.
