How To Make avacado chicken enchuladas

  • Step 1
    Preheat oven to 375. In medium sauce pan, sauté garlic in butter for about 1 minute on Medium heat. Stir in flour let it cook for about 2 minutes. Next, stir in the chicken broth, cumin, salt, pepper, and bring to a simmer. Remove from heat and stir in the sour cream, salsa and cilantro until smooth. (or smooth as you can get.)
  • Step 2
    Prepare a 9x13 baking dish with non-stick cooking spray. Add about 1/2 cup sauce to bottom of the pan, and spread out until bottom of the baking dish is evenly coated.
  • Step 3
    Lay out a tortilla and add chicken, shredded cheese, and avocado to the end of the tortilla and roll. Then place the rolled tortilla seam-side down and repeat until the pan is full. Pour the remaining sauce over the enchiladas. Cover with 1 cup of cheese and bake for about 20 minutes or until cheese is bubbling.
