Method
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a mixing bowl, combine shredded cooked chicken, half of the cheese, ground cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
- Lightly warm the corn tortillas in a large skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side to make them pliable.
- Spread a thin layer of enchilada sauce on the bottom of the baking dish, then place a spoonful of the chicken mixture in the center of each tortilla and roll up tightly. Place seam-side down in the dish.
- Pour the remaining enchilada sauce evenly over the rolled tortillas and sprinkle with the remaining cheese.
- Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 20 minutes.
- Remove the foil and bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and lightly golden.
- Let the enchiladas rest for 5 minutes, garnish with chopped fresh cilantro if desired, and serve hot.
Notes
Pro Tip: Add a squeeze of lime juice or sliced jalapeños before serving for extra flavor.
