SPEEDY GONZALES' CHICKEN ENCHILADAS

Steps:

• Combine both soups and sour cream.
• Blend well.
• Divide in half and set half aside. Add chopped chicken to one of the halves of soup mixture.
• Heat oven to 375°F.
• Lightly heat tortillas in moisten tea towel in microwave for ease of rolling.
• On each tortilla, spread about 2-3 tablespoons of chicken mixture on one side; sprinkle with about tablespoons of cheese; roll up; and place in prepared casserole.
• Repeat with all tortillas, placing close together. Spread "set aside" soup-sour cream mixture over all and top with remaining cheese.
• Cover with foil and bake for about 45 minutes. Uncover and bake for about 15 minutes until top is lightly golden.
• Sprinkle with sliced olives or chopped tomato and avocado, if desired.

SPEEDY CHEESE AND CHICKEN ENCHILADAS

Steps:

• Sauté onion in olive oil until tender; add chicken, 1/4 cup enchilada sauce, cream cheese, and cumin; cook and stir until cream cheese is melted; stir in 1 cup of grated cheese then remove from heat.
• Divide chicken mixture among tortillas, placing an equal portion onto each; roll enchiladas up tightly and place seam side down in a 9x13" baking dish that has been lightly sprayed with no-stick cooking spray; top with remaining enchilada sauce and grated cheese.
• Bake at 350°F for 15-20 minutes until cheese is melted and enchiladas are heated through.
• NOTE: Two cups diced cooked chicken is equal to about one pound uncooked meat.

ULTIMATE CREAMY CHICKEN ENCHILADAS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• Place chicken on a large sheet of foil and season with 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon chili powder, and 1/2 teaspoon cumin. Seal the foil around the chicken and place the packet on a rimmed baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until tender and no longer pink in the center, about 50 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Shred cooked chicken and set aside. Increase the oven temperature to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• While chicken cooks, prepare tortillas. Spread both sides of each tortilla lightly with butter. Heat a skillet over medium heat. Toast each tortilla, about 10 seconds on each side, and set aside.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion, poblano pepper, and bell pepper and cook, stirring often, about 2 minutes. Add remaining salt, chili powder, and cumin and cook, stirring frequently, until veggies are very tender, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low and stir in tomatoes and cream cheese. Cook, stirring constantly, until cheese has melted. Remove from heat and stir in sour cream and 2 cups Cheddar-Monterey Jack cheese blend.
• Spread about 1 tablespoon refried beans, if using, in the center of a tortilla. Add about 1/4 cup chicken filling and roll up to seal. Repeat with remaining beans and filling. Pour 1/4 cup sauce in the bottom of 9x13-inch baking dish. Arrange enchiladas in a single layer over the sauce. Pour remaining enchilada sauce over the top and spread to evenly coat. Sprinkle with remaining cheese.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden and bubbly, about 30 minutes. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving with desired toppings.

SPEEDY WHITE CHICKEN ENCHILADAS

Steps:

• Mix soup and sour cream and set aside.
• Heat butter in medium saucepan.
• Add onions and chili powder and cook until onions are tender.
• Add the canned chicken and chilis and 3 tablespoons of the sauce mixture.
• Spread 1/2 cup of the soup mixture into a 9x13 pan.
• Spoon mixture into tortillas, roll up, and place (seam down) on top of the soup mixture.
• Spread remaining sauce mixture on top, and cover with cheese.
• Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes -- or until cheese is bubbly and browning.
• Suggestion: One can use chopped/shredded leftover chicken rather than canned chicken.
• Suggestion: Serve with salsa and chips for a great meal!
• Suggestion: This is a very forgiving dish. I have added black olives, used less chicken, doubled the sauce mixture, upped the spice factor, etc. You can easily tweak this recipe to your liking.
