01 Step
Recipe View
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). (5 minutes)
02 Step
Recipe View
In a large bowl, thoroughly combine the chopped chicken, green chilies, and green chile salsa. Set aside this flavorful mixture. (5 minutes)
03 Step
Recipe View
In a wide, shallow dish, whisk together the whipping cream and salt until well combined. This creamy bath will add richness to the tortillas. Set aside. (2 minutes)
04 Step
Recipe View
Heat oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Carefully fry each tortilla in the hot oil for just 2 to 4 seconds per side, until lightly blistered. Immediately dip the fried tortilla into the cream mixture, coating both sides. (15 minutes)
05 Step
Recipe View
Fill each cream-soaked tortilla with the chicken mixture. Roll them up and place them flap-side down in a baking dish. Pour any remaining cream mixture evenly over the enchiladas, then generously sprinkle with shredded Monterey Jack cheese. (10 minutes)
06 Step
Recipe View
Bake uncovered in the preheated oven until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and lightly golden brown, approximately 15 to 20 minutes. (20 minutes)
For a spicier kick, use a hotter green chile salsa or add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the chicken mixture.
To prevent tortillas from tearing, warm them slightly in a dry skillet before frying. This will make them more pliable.
If you prefer a thicker sauce, you can reduce the whipping cream in a saucepan over medium heat until it reaches your desired consistency before using.
These enchiladas are best served immediately, but leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
