Equipment
- 1 Casserole Dish or Baking Dish
- 1 Ladle
- 1 Bowl
Ingredients
- 4 Tortillas
- 1 Cooked Chicken Breasts shredded
- 1 Cup Enchilada Sauce
- 1 Cup Shredded White Cheese
- 1/4 Cup Shredded Cheddar Cheese
Instructions
- Start by shredding some cooked chicken breasts and grating the cheese. Set out your tortillas and have the enchilada sauce ready. This setup makes the assembly a breeze.
- Spread a layer of enchilada sauce on the bottom of your casserole dish. This helps to prevent the tortillas from sticking and keeps everything nice and moist.
- Take each tortilla, fill it with the shredded chicken, a bit of both cheeses, and a spoonful of sauce. Roll it up and place it seam-side down in the casserole dish.
- Place the rolled tortillas side by side in the casserole dish. Once they’re all snugly in place, pour the remaining enchilada sauce over the top, and sprinkle with the rest of the cheese.
- Pop the casserole in the oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit (180 degrees Celsius) for 20 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and golden. Once out, I like to top it with a bit of sour cream, fresh cilantro, and maybe some sliced avocado for an extra burst of flavor.

Notes
- Warm up the tortillas before filling them to prevent breaking.
- Add a bit of extra sauce on top if you like it extra saucy only add the remaining sauce in the middle to see the crispy ends from the layer of tortillas.
- Bake until the cheese is just bubbling to avoid overcooking.
