SKINNY CHICKEN SOUR CREAM ENCHILADAS RECIPE - (4.5/5)

Steps:

• In a saucepan, mix together sour cream, soup and cilantro. Heat through and set aside. This is will get to the bubble up/boil stage quickly and make a huge hot mess if you don't keep stirring. I learned the hard way. Combine the chicken, Rotel, onions and green chiles in a pan sprayed with cooking spray. Heat until onions are transparent. Or if you omit onions like I have done, for a few minutes to blend the flavors and juices. Fill each tortilla with about 2 tablespoons of the chicken mixture. Roll the tortilla up and place seam side down (or they will unravel and you will be annoyed) in a 8×11 dish sprayed with cooking spray. Pour or spread the sour cream sauce over enchiladas. Top with the remaining cheese. Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 25 to 30 minutes until bubbly and cheese is melted.
