How to Make Creamy Chicken Enchiladas
Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large bowl, mix the cream of chicken soup, sour cream, green chiles, chicken broth, and spices until smooth.
Add a portion of the sauce and shredded cheese to the chicken and mix well.
Fill each tortilla with the chicken mixture, roll tightly, and place seam-side down in a greased baking dish.
Pour the remaining sauce evenly over the enchiladas and top with the remaining cheese.
Bake uncovered for 25–30 minutes, until the enchiladas are hot and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
