Ingredients

  • 12 flour tortillas
  • 4 cups shredded cooked chicken
  • 1 batch sour cream sauce
  • cups sharp cheddar cheese
  • 2 cups Monterey cheese

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F and spray a 13x9 inch baking dish with non-stick oil.
  • Line the bottom of the baking dish with 6 tortillas so they are overlapping and covering the bottom.
  • Place 2 cups of shredded chicken over the top with ½ the sour cream sauce.
  • Sprinkle 1 cup Monterey cheese on top of the sauce.
  • Place the remaining tortillas on top then top that with the remaining chicken and sour cream sauce.
  • Top the sour cream sauce with the remaining Monterey Cheese then the cheddar cheese.
  • Bake in the oven for 5-20 minutes until cheese melts and bubbly.

Notes

  • This sour cream enchilada is a great way to use leftover chicken, rotisserie chicken and even canned chicken.
  • You can assemble this dish in one layer or do multiple as I did here. If you like it in one layer just use 6 tortillas at the bottom and top with the whole amount of chicken, sauce then sprinkle cheese on top.
  • You can use less chicken if you want to.
Storage
  • Leftover sour cream enchilada casserole keeps well in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.
  • Reheat on a microwave safe plate or in the oven (preferred method) until thoroughly heated.
