Easy Chicken & Cheese Enchiladas (Recipe from Campbellskitchen.com)
Looking for a creative way to use leftover chicken? These kicked-up, easy-to-prepare enchiladas come out of the oven hot and bubbly for a flavorful dish the whole family will love.
Prep: 15 minutes
Bake: 40 minutes
Servings: 6
1 can (10 ¾ oz) Campbell’s® Condensed Cream of Chicken Soup (Regular or 98% Fat Free)
1/2 cup sour cream
1 cup Pace® Picante Sauce
2 teaspoons chili powder
2 cups chopped cooked chicken
1/2 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese (about 2 ounces)
6 flour tortillas (6-inch), warmed
1 small tomato, chopped (about 1/2 cup)
1 green onion, sliced (about 2 tablespoons)
- Heat the oven to 350°F. Stir the soup, sour cream, picante sauce and chili powder in a medium bowl.
- Stir 1 cup soup mixture, chicken and cheese in a large bowl.
- Divide the chicken mixture among the tortillas. Roll up the tortillas and place seam-side up in a 2-quart shallow baking dish. Pour the remaining soup mixture over the filled tortillas. Cover the baking dish.
- Bake for 40 minutes or until the enchiladas are hot and bubbling. Top with the tomato and onion.
Recipe tips
- Ingredient Note: Add black beans (drained and rinsed) or rice into chicken mixture, if desired.
- Easy Substitution: Substitute 3 cans (4.5 ounces each) Swanson® Premium White Chunk Chicken Breast in Water, drained, for the cooked chicken.
- Serve with: iceberg salad mixed with carrots and red cabbage and a red wine vinaigrette, and fruit
- Dessert: prepared, refrigerated flan
- GLUTEN-FREE OPTION: Use corn tortillas, instead of flour
