Creamy White Chicken Enchiladas
Prep: 15 minutes
Cook: 45 minutes
Yields: 4 servings
Ah, the tantalizing aroma of mouthwatering Mexican flavors! Let’s embark on a culinary journey and create these divine Creamy White Chicken Enchiladas that will have your taste buds dancing with joy!
These enchiladas are a symphony of creamy, cheesy goodness, enveloped in a homemade sauce that’s slightly spicy and oh-so-satisfying! It’s one of those dishes that’ll make you want to curl up on the couch and dig in, with a side of rice and beans, of course. And if you’re feeling extra fancy, chips and guacamole are a must-have! 
Let’s get this party started! First, grab some pliable tortillas by wrapping them in a damp paper towel and giving them a quick spin in the microwave for about 20 seconds. Now, onto the mouthwatering filling: shredded chicken, smoky salsa verde, and an abundance of cheese. Load up your tortillas with this delicious mixture and roll them up tightly, like little Mexican burritos, ready for their creamy bath.
For the sauce, we’re going to mix up a magical concoction using chicken broth, flour, milk, diced jalapeños for a bit of a kick, and a dash of salt and pepper. Bring this mixture to a boil, stirring constantly to prevent lumps. Once it thickens up, whisk in some sour cream for extra creaminess. Drizzle this heavenly sauce over your enchiladas, pop them in the oven, and prepare for an explosion of flavor in every bite! 
If you’re a planner, you can assemble these enchiladas ahead of time and refrigerate them for up to 2 days. When you’re ready to devour them, let them warm up on the counter while your oven preheats. Then, bake them as directed, letting the flavors meld together in perfect harmony. Leftovers are also a thing of beauty, so store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4-5 days. Enjoy every bite of this cheesy, creamy masterpiece!
