Easy Chicken Enchiladas

One of my favorite recipes for feeding a crowd is enchiladas. They are simple, inexpensive, easy to make and they’re delicious. I have made them so many times I don’t even follow a recipe any more. These things are so forgiving, you can put anything in them. They are great to make when you want to make space in the fridge, which is how these happened. I had some onions and peppers I needed to use, so poof: enchiladas!

One of my favorite gifts to give are gifts of food. So we make a bunch of pans of these at least once per month and deliver them to friends and neighbors door-to-door. So fun and ALWAYS appreciated!

These started by sauteing some onion & red pepper. I always season with S&P, cumin, and that mexican spice mix we all have!

Next I season my chicken tenders with S&P, cumin, smoky paprika, garlic, and chili powder, then cook it in my cast iron pan.

Shred the cooked chicken with two forks.

Add the chicken to the onions, pour in a can or two of prepared enchilada sauce & a can of drained black beans (because black beans are high in fiber and we love them!) Sometimes I sneak in some fresh spinach or kale. It’s still delicious!

Don’t forget the shredded cheddar cheese and some adobo sauce for some heat.

Coat the bottom of the pan with sauce and then fill it up!

Serve with fresh cilantro, sour cream, avocado slices and whatever else your heart desires!

Enjoy!
