Delicious food…

I have an awesome family.  Yesterday Heather called me up at work to ask if she could come over and make chicken enchiladas for Marshall and me.  Uh, heck yeah!  😉

I was so impressed with this meal that I had to document it.  Hey, a real home-cooked meal is rarely had at my house so I have to take full advantage of the food and cooking lesson any time Heather comes over.  =)

Ingredients:

  • Shredded chicken (Heather bought a rotisserie chicken from Costco and then shredded the meat by hand)
  • One yellow onion (chopped)
  • Shredded cheese (Cheddar and Monterey Jack)
  • One 4oz can of Ortega diced green chilies
  • One large can of La Victoria Red Enchilada sauce
  • Medium tortillas
  • Mexican style Rice-A-Roni
  • Refried beans
  • Sour cream

Step 1:

  • Follow directions to cook rice
  • Warm shredded chicken, diced chilies and about half a yellow onion that has been softened by briefly browning in a pan
  • Add a bit of enchilada sauce to the chicken mix

Step 2:

  • Drizzle enchilada sauce in the bottom of the glass pans

Hurray! Enchiladas! Yay for Heffies!! =)

Step 3:

  • Fill and roll tortillas with shredded chicken mix and some cheese.
  • Place stuffed tortillas into pan with overlapping edges facing down
  • Drizzle enchilada sauce and sprinkle cheese on top of finished enchiladas
  • Cook for 30 minutes at 400 degrees

Happy chicken enchiladas all ready for the oven.

Dinner's ready!

Thanks to Heather for a delicious meal.  We all enjoyed it immensely (Jeffery a.k.a “Cletus” was especially happy about the leftovers).  Thanks again Sis.  =)

Jeffery turns into a total goofball after packaging up some enchiladas for the road.
