Ingredients
- 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
- water to cover
- ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 cloves garlic, chopped
- 1 small onion, chopped
- 1 (4 ounce) can chopped green chile peppers
- 1 clove garlic, chopped
- 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
- 2 cups shredded Mexican cheese blend, divided
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 6 corn tortillas, or as needed
- 1 (28 ounce) can green enchilada sauce
- 8 ounces sour cream
- 2 tablespoons milk, or as needed
Instructions
- Place chicken in a large skillet and pour in enough water to cover; add Parmesan cheese and 2 chopped cloves of garlic. Bring water to a boil and cook until chicken is no longer pink in the center, about 28 minutes. Remove skillet from heat, reserving 1/2 cup water mixture from the skillet. Transfer chicken to a work surface and shred using 2 forks.
- Combine onion, green chile peppers, and 1 chopped clove of garlic in a pot; add cream cheese and 1 cup Mexican cheese blend. Cook and stir mixture over medium heat until cream cheese is melted, 3 to 4 minutes. Slowly pour the reserved 1/2 cup water mixture from chicken over cream cheese mixture, while continuously stirring until mixture is smooth. Remove pot from heat and stir shredded chicken into cream cheese sauce.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Heat oil in a skillet over medium-low heat. Place tortillas in the hot oil, working in batches, until warmed, about 30 seconds per side. Spoon 1 to 2 tablespoons cream cheese-chicken sauce down the center of each warmed tortilla; roll tortilla around filling.
- Pour enough green enchilada sauce to cover the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish. Arrange filled tortillas in the enchilada sauce. Pour remaining enchilada sauce over filled tortillas.
- Mix sour cream and milk together in a bowl until thin enough to pour. Pour sour cream mixture over filled tortillas; top with remaining Mexican cheese blend.
- Bake in the preheated oven until heated through and cheese is melted and bubbling, 20 to 25 minutes.
- Add a chopped jalapeno with the onion and can of green chiles for some extra heat. You can cut up some green onion, black olives, or tomatoes to sprinkle over the top before or after baking depending on if you want them soft or not.
- You can use either red or green enchilada sauce. I like the green flavor better; it gives a good Mexican flavor without being spicy.
- If using corn tortillas, heat in oil just to soften before rolling. If you’re using flour tortillas no need to heat in oil.

Reviews
I enjoyed these enchiladas. I used eight tortillas and used a 9×13 pan. I thought it was heavy on the enchilada sauce and sour cream, but light on the cheese, so next time I will use maybe 2/3 of the sauce and half the sour cream. I’ll put more cheese on top as well. Overall great taste!
Just the recipe that I was looking for! But I’m lazy–so instead of rolling the enchiladas I layered it. I covered the bottom of my 9 x 13 pan with sauce. Then I placed 6 corn tortillas over the sauce and spread all the filling over the top. I covered the filling with 6 more tortillas, the rest of the enchilada sauce, and the rest of the cheese. I skipped the sour cream on top because my kids don’t like. It came out super yummy! Thanks!
this was very good – the family loved it!
These were nice enchiladas, the sour cream topping was a bit of overkill. I used white Oaxaca cheese for the filling and Mexican blend for the topping. I reduced the recipe and still filled 6 corn tortillas, which made a 9 x 9 pan. Thanks, the family really liked these.
