Did you know I’m half Mexican?
Anyone who knows me is pretty surprised when they find this out because I’m pretty darn white. Although I may be white I still LOVE to cook Mexican dishes. One of the recipes I make all the time is Las Palmas Chicken Enchiladas. Not only are they so easy but they are so good and are a hit at any function! I also like that they are easy to make in mass quantities and are also good if you make and freeze them. They only require a few ingredients…
Las Palmas Chicken Enchiladas

Green Chile Chicken Enchiladas - a family favorite!
Ingredients
Print This Recipe
- 2 cups chicken, cooked & shredded
- 3 cups monterey jack cheese, shredded
- 1 19 oz. can Las Palmas Green Chile Enchilada sauce
- sour cream
- 8-12 corn tortillas
- 1 4.5 oz. can chopped green chiles
Instructions
- In a small bowl, combine chicken, 2 cups cheese and green chiles (for the chicken I buy skinless boneless chicken breast on sale when it's $1.67/lb and cook it in my crock pot on high for a few hours. When it is no longer pink on the inside I let it cool in the fridge and then I shred it and take out the fatty parts)
- In a small skillet, bring enchilada sauce to boil. Remove from heat.
- 3. Dip each tortilla into heated sauce for a few seconds to soften.
- Spoon 1/3 cup of chicken mixture and 2 tablespoons sour cream down center for each tortilla. I usually put the sour cream in a sandwich bag and cut the bottom tip which makes it easier to squirt right down the center.
- 5. Roll the tortilla and place seam-side down in 12x8 inch baking dish.
- Pour remaining heated enchilada sauce over top. Sprinkle with remaining 1 cup cheese.
- Bake 20 minutes at 350. Makes 4 servings.
