"Easy Peasy" Chicken Enchiladas (As My Son Would Say!)

  • Recipe Submitted by on

Category: Dinner Party, Tomatoes, Peppers, Chicken

 Ingredients List

  • 3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, chopped
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 1 red bell pepper, diced
  • 1 8 oz package shredded Mexican cheese
  • 1 large can diced black olives
  • 1 large can diced mild green chiles
  • 1 large can mild green enchilada sauce (you could use red, but I like green)
  • 1 package shredded lettuce or mixed greens
  • 2 avocados, diced
  • 2 cups cherry tomatoes, sliced
  • Light sour cream
  • 6 soft taco size flour tortillas (you could use whole wheat too)
  • Spray cooking oil
  • Salt and pepper
  • 13 x 9 baking pan

 Directions

1) Pre-heat oven to 350.

2) Heat a pan over medium/high heat and spray with oil. Add chicken, bell pepper and onion. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook until chicken is browned and no longer pink, stirring every few minutes. Set aside.

3) Set aside 1/2 cup of shredded cheese to top enchiladas.

4) Spray baking pan. Fill each tortilla with chicken mixture, olives, green chiles and shredded cheese. Make sure you have enough to divide among all six tortillas. After you fill each tortilla, roll it and place it seam side down in the baking dish.

5) Poor enchilada sauce over the tortillas. Top with remaining shredded cheese. Cover with tin foil and bake for 30 min.

6) Serve each enchilada topped with lettuce, tomatoes, avocado and sour cream. I like to add a little hot sauce too
