For a smoother cheese sauce, consider using a roux (butter and flour) as a base before adding the cheese and sour cream.
Spice it up! Add a pinch of chili powder or a dash of hot sauce to the chicken mixture for a little kick.
Feel free to substitute the chicken with shredded turkey or cooked ground beef.
These enchiladas are also great with a side of rice and beans.
To prevent tortillas from tearing, lightly warm them in a dry skillet or microwave before filling.
