How To Make white chicken enchiladas with green chilies

  • 1
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9x13 pan, using non-stick cooking spray.
  • 2
    Mix cooked chicken, chili powder (optional) and 1 cup cheese together. Roll in tortillas and place in pan.
  • 3
    In a medium sauce pan, melt butter, stir in flour and cook 1 minute. Add broth and whisk until smooth. Heat over medium heat until thick and bubbly.
  • 4
    Stir in sour cream, can of chilies, cilantro, black pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder. Make sure that you don't bring this to a boil-you don't want to have curdled sour cream!

    Pour over enchiladas and top with remaining cheese.
  • 6
    Bake 20-22 minutes and then place under high broil 3 minutes to brown the cheese.
