Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 corn tortillas
  • 2 cups cooked and shredded chicken
  • 1½ cups roasted Hatch green chiles, peeled and chopped
  • 2 cups shredded cheese (cheddar or Monterey Jack)
  • 1 can (10 oz) red enchilada sauce
  • 1 cup sour cream, for garnish (optional)
  • Chopped fresh cilantro, for garnish
  • Olive oil or cooking spray
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, combine shredded chicken, chopped Hatch green chiles, 1 cup of shredded cheese, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
  3. Soften corn tortillas by briefly heating them in a skillet for 10–15 seconds per side or microwaving them wrapped in a damp paper towel for 30 seconds.
  4. Spread a thin layer of enchilada sauce on the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  5. Place 2–3 tablespoons of the chicken and chile mixture along one edge of each tortilla.
  6. Roll tightly and place seam-side down in the baking dish.
  7. Once all enchiladas are arranged, pour the remaining enchilada sauce evenly over the top.
  8. Sprinkle with the rest of the shredded cheese.
  9. Cover with foil and bake for 20–25 minutes.
  10. Remove foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes until cheese is melted and bubbling.
  11. Let cool slightly before garnishing with sour cream and cilantro.
  12. Serve your Hatch green chile enchiladas warm.

Notes

  • You can substitute chicken with beans or beef for a different protein.
  • For a spicier kick, add some diced jalapeños to the filling.
  • If you prefer a milder flavor, use fewer Hatch green chiles or choose a mild variety.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.
