Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 8 servings

  • cooking spray

  • 1 cup sour cream

  • 1 cup green salsa (such as Frontera® Tomatillo)

  • 2 teaspoons olive oil

  • 1 small onion, chopped

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 3 cups shredded cooked chicken breasts

  • 1 ½ cups shredded Mexican cheese blend, divided

  • 1 (4 ounce) can chopped green chile peppers

  • 8 (8 inch) flour tortillas

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.

  2. Mix sour cream and salsa together in a bowl.

  3. Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Saute onion and garlic in the hot oil until soft, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in cooked chicken, 1 cup of the sour cream mixture, 1/2 of the Mexican cheese, and chile peppers.

  4. Spoon about 1/3 cup of the mixture down the center of each tortilla. Roll tortillas and place, seam sides-down, into the prepared dish. Top with remaining sour cream mixture and cheese. Cover with foil.

  5. Bake in the preheated oven until heated through and bubbly, 30 to 40 minutes.
