Mexican-inspired chicken-stuffed tortilla casserole with creamy sauce and cheese, a bubbly family favorite.
Ingredients:
  • 8 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
  • 1 (8 ounce) package shredded Colby-Monterey Jack cheese
  • 0.5 (4 ounce) can chopped green chile peppers, drained
  • 24 flour tortillas
  • 2 (10.75 ounce) cans cream of chicken soup
  • 2 cups half and half
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 (8 ounce) package shredded Colby-Monterey Jack cheese, divided
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to a toasty 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) while you generously grease an 11x15-inch baking dish.
  • In a saucepan, simmer chicken breasts in water until cooked through, about 15 minutes. Drain, shred with forks, then mix in a bowl with 8 ounces of Colby-Monterey Jack cheese and canned green chilies.
  • Fill each tortilla with a line of the chicken mixture and fold it in half, then roll it into a cylinder. Arrange the rolls in the baking dish with the seam sides facing down.
  • Mix the soup, half-and-half, chicken broth, and one-third of the second package of shredded Colby-Monterey Jack cheese in a bowl. Pour the mixture over the enchiladas, top with the rest of the cheese, and allow it to sit for 10-15 minutes before serving.
  • Bake until the cheese is bubbly, melted, and lightly browned, for approximately 25 minutes in the preheated oven.
