Spicy Red Chile Enchiladas

These are super easy, and are not completely making them from scratch.




Spicy Red Chile Enchiladas



Ingredients:



Boneless chicken breasts fully cooked

shredded low fat cheese.. any kind you like

whole wheat tortillas

Enchilada sauce (see end of post for sauce details)



I sprayed my pan with no fat cooking spray, seasoned my chicken with salt and pepper, and other spices (season how you like it). After chicken was fully cooked, I diced it up and put it in a bowl. Next I combined the sauce with the chicken by pouring it over the chicken. Then I put a line across the center of a ww tortlla, with a sprinkle of cheese, then rolled it up and put it in the pan. Repeat until you have the quantity you would like.



Bake on 350 degrees for 20-30 minutes or so. I always guess and check them after a certain amount of time. Mine cooked for 25 minutes and turned out perfect.



My measurements are all based on how many you are cooking for. I figure a serving per person with all ingredients.

The Chile Sauce:



The brand is Senor Pino's Red Chile



I am slightly skeptical that anyone will find it outside of NM or AZ. This is the more authentic sauce for enchiladas. But I found mine at Sam's Club here in Roswell. You could try there, or maybe Walmart. I hope you all can find it (if you are interested). It is processed in Albequerque, NM. Maybe when I find out how to make it for from scratch, I will share it will you all.



The ingredients include: water, new mexico red chile pods, salt, garlic, and onion powder. That's it! And any of you who are interested in trying to make it anyway, the sauce is completely pureed.
