Enchiladas Verde

Enchiladas Verde


1. Drain tomatillos and blend into a sauce. Bring all ingredients except tortillas and cheese to a boil in large pot until chicken is cooked.

2. Remove chicken and chop or shred. Add chicken back to mixture.

3. Layer tortillas, chicken mixture, then cheese in 8x8 dish starting with tortillas and ending with tortillas, saving enough cheese to cover top. Reserve small amount of chicken mixture for top and cover with remaining cheese.

4. Bake 2O minutes at 350 or until heated thoroughly and cheese is melted.

5. My family really likes spicy food so I add plenty of red pepper and either fresh jalapenos or jarred jalapenos. Fresh cilantro is also good in this when I have it on hand. Also, right before I remove the casserole I like to turn on the broiler and get the cheese nice and brown.

6. The filling can be made in advance to save time. Just increase baking time to ensure casserole is heated throughout if filling has been in refrigerator.
