Notes

  • I commonly use rotisserie chicken in these enchiladas to make life simpler, yet remaining chicken likewise works extraordinary! 
  • I like my enchiladas on the gentle side; on the off chance that you like things zesty, utilize a container of diced jalapenos rather than the green chiles, or go for a more blazing enchilada sauce.
