We’ve decided to try featuring a new thing here on The Bella Life – 5 Items or Less Recipes.  We thought these quick and easy dinner ideas would be perfect for those who are constantly on the GO.  To kick off our 5 Items or Less Recipes this week, I wanted to share an easy chicken enchilada recipe I made for D and I last night.

 

For this recipe, you will need:

  • Shredded Chicken (to make it really easy, use rotisserie or canned chicken)
  • White Corn Tortillas
  • Monterey Jack Cheese
  • Green Enchilada Sauce (I prefer Medium Sauce because it gives it an extra kick)
  • Chipotle Tabasco (this ingredient could be switched out for diced onions, cilantro, tomatoes, etc. Use something you have on hand!)

MY 5 ITEMS

 

Preheat oven to 375 degrees

Step #1: Lay corn tortilla flat.  Add chicken and shredded cheese. (Eyeball the chicken/cheese portions.  If you like meaty enchiladas, add extra chicken.  Make them to your liking).

Step #1

 

Step #2: Roll the tortilla and lay in glass/metal baking dish (Tip: spread sauce on the bottom of dish before adding the tortillas – this will prevent them from sticking.)

Step #2

 

Step #3:  After you have finished lining the baking dish with the rolled tortillas (I usually keep rolling tortillas until I’ve run out of chicken), pour enchilada sauce all over the top – making sure to cover all of the tortillas.  Finish by topping the enchiladas off with the remaining cheese.

Step #3

 

Step #4:  Bake at 375 degrees for 25-30 minutes (make sure your cheese is melted)

The End Result = DELICIOUSNESS!

 

Please note: Since I use little corn tortillas, we usually end up eating about 2-3 enchilada rolls each. 

 

Top with salsa, sour cream or avocado! Enjoy!
