Method
1. Fill the Tortillas
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a bowl, mix chicken with 1 cup cheese.
Fill each tortilla, roll tightly, and place seam-side down in a greased 9×13-inch baking dish.
2. Make the Sauce
In a skillet, melt butter over medium heat.
Stir in flour and cook for 1 minute to form a roux.
Gradually whisk in chicken broth until smooth and thickened.
3. Add Cream & Chiles
Remove from heat.
Stir in sour cream and diced green chiles until fully blended.
4. Assemble & Bake
Pour sauce evenly over enchiladas.
Sprinkle with remaining 1 cup cheese.
Bake for 20–25 minutes, until bubbly and golden at the edges.
5. Serve Warm
Let rest for a few minutes.
Serve with Spanish rice, refried beans, or a crisp salad.
Tips & Variations
Add sautéed onions or black beans to the filling for extra texture
Swap Monterey Jack for pepper jack or cheddar for a flavor twist
