RECIPE NEEDED - Sour Cream Chicken Enchiladas

Tomorrow night is our PWOC (Protestant Women of the Chapel - do I still need to type that out or are y'all used to it by now???) Project Night.

I always pick up the dinner entree and then we each bring munchies to share. Last night we sat around and discussed what to bring. Something besides Chick Fil A wraps and Pizza. A couple of ideas were liked - breakfast burritoes and sour cream chicken enchiladas. I know where to order the breakfast burritoes and I'm calling a local Mexican restaurant to see what they would charge for a pan of enchiladas....but I've been thinking those sound like something I'd like to make - anyone have a TRIED recipe that they enjoy for this? I can do a google search but I want to know that someone REAL likes them before I go to the trouble of making them. Photos would be nice too. ::snort::

Chicken Enchilada's with sour cream

1/2 c. chopped onion


1/2 c chopped green pepper


2 T butter


2 c. chopped cooked chicken ( I buy a rotissurre sp?)


1 small can of chopped green chilis


1/4 c. flour


3/4 tsp salt


1 tsp ground Coriander


2 1/2 c. chicken broth


1 c sour cream


1 1/2 cups of Monterey Jack (I used the Fiesta Blend)


12 - 6 inch flour tortillas


3 T butter




Cook onions and green peppers in 2 T of butter until tender. Combine in bowl with the chicken and green chilis and set aside. Melt 3 T butter in skillet. Add flour, salt and coriander. Slowly add chicken broth stirring constantly and cook over medium high heat until mixture boils. Remove from heat and stir in the sour cream and half the cheese (I made a boo boo and added all the cheese but it ended up still tasting great!) Stir 1/2 cup sauce into chicken mixture. (I might of used a bit more than a 1/2 cup. ) Dip each tortilla into remaining sauce to soften. Fill each tortilla with 1/4 cup chicken mixture. Roll up tortilla and place in a 9 x 13 pan that has been sprayed with PAM. Pour remaining sauce over tortilla's and top with remaining cheese. (I had to add some extra cheese since I used it all in the sauce) Bake uncovered for 350 degrees for 25 minutes.


I am not sure if this is what you are looking for. I have the recipe on my blog with a picture too!
