Instructions
Creating Ultimate Quick and Easy Chicken Enchiladas can be straightforward if you follow these simple steps:
1. Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Prepare the Filling: In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, half of the cheese, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
3. Assemble the Enchiladas: Take a tortilla, and place about ¼ cup of the chicken mixture down the center. Roll the tortilla tightly and place it seam-side down in a lightly greased baking dish. Repeat this for all tortillas.
4. Add Sauce: Pour the enchilada sauce evenly over the rolled tortillas in the dish. Sprinkle the remaining cheese on top.
5. Bake: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
These steps will guide you in creating delicious enchiladas effortlessly.
