Description

These Swiss enchiladas feature fried corn tortillas filled with a mixture of chicken, green chilies, salsa, and cream, topped with cheese, and baked.

Ingredients

2 cups chopped, cooked chicken
1/2 (4 ounce) can chopped green chilies
1 (7 ounce) can prepared green chile salsa
2 cups whipping cream
1/2 teaspoon salt
oil for frying
12 corn tortillas
1 1/2 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2 Mix together chicken, chilies, and salsa in a large bowl until well combined. Set aside.
3 Stir together whipping cream and salt in a wide, shallow dish until well combined. Set aside.
4 Heat oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Fry each tortilla in hot oil until blistering, 2 to 4 seconds, then immediately dip into cream mixture.
5 Fill fried tortillas with chicken mixture. Roll and place flap-side down in a baking dish. Pour remaining cream mixture over tortillas and sprinkle with cheese.
6 Bake uncovered in the preheated oven until cheese is melted, 15 to 20 minutes.
