Ingredients
-
1 lb fire roasted Green Chiles (large can come in 27oz), chopped
1 Tbsp olive oil
1 Tbsp Smart Balance light buttery spread
5 large cloves garlic, minced
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp fresh ground pepper
2 cups fat free, low sodium chicken broth, divided
10 corn tortillas (7-8 inches)
2- 1/2 cups shredded cooked chicken (I use about 1/2 a roasted chicken)
2 cups shredded Kraft Mexican cheese blend 2%, divided
5 Tbsp fat free sour cream
Directions
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
2. Heat oil and butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add chiles, salt, and pepper. cook stirring occasionally, 3 minutes. Add 1 cup chicken broth and simmer until reduced by 1/3 (about 10 minutes).
3. Meanwhile, prepare tortillas. In a small skillet, bring 1 cup broth to gentle simmer. Working one at a time, very briefly dip tortillas into broth to barely soften. Transfer each tortilla to a large baking sheet (I use 2 or 3 sheets). Do not overlap or tortillas will stick. Throw remaining broth away.
4. Divide 1-1/4 cups cheese equally among tortillas (1/8 cup each) and top each with shredded chicken, dividing evenly. Wrap tortilla around filling and transfer, seam-side down to a 9.13 baking dish.
5. Pour chile sauce over enchiladas and top with remaining 3/4 cup cheese. Bake until cheese is bubbling and brown, 15-20 minutes. Serve wtih sour cream. Serving size is 2 enchiladas with 1 Tbsp sour cream.
