  • 1 tablespoon fresh minced cilantro

  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

  • 1 cup finely diced red onion

  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic

  • 1/2 cup corn

  • 1/4 cup finely diced green chile peppers

In a large nonstick sauce pan over medium heat sauté onion in olive oil for 5 minutes until translucent then add minced garlic and sauté 1 additional minute.


Stir in corn and chiles and cook for another minute.


Add stewed tomatoes and break apart with wooden spoon.


Stir in your chicken and continue to cook over medium heat for another couple minutes.


Dust with flour to help filling set. Turn off heat.

Microwave tortillas covered in damp paper towel 30 seconds to soften them.


Coat the bottom of a 9x13 baking dish with 1/2 cup enchilada sauce.


Fill a smaller shallow dish like a pie dish with another 1/2 cup of enchilada sauce. Dip each tortilla into the sauce to lightly coat the inside then fill up with 5 ounces or about 1/4 cup chicken mixture.


Roll up and place seal side down in 9x13 baking dish.


Repeat with remaining 5 tortillas and cover with 1/2 cup more of sauce and shredded cheese.


Bake 30 minutes. remove from heat and drizzle with sour cream, tomatoes, cilantro and guacamole if you want to!

Recipe can be doubled easily.
