Creamy Chicken Enchiladas is a great dinner to make. Everyone I think these days loves Mexican food with a bit of an American twist to it. Real Mexican food is just amazing and I should probably start making some authentic Mexican food one day but for now this will do. This recipe can be very filling and you don't even have to use chicken. The black beans and brown rice are a great source of protein and really filling. So here is the recipe everyone has been waiting for.
Ingredients: What I used
3-4 Organic Chicken Breast
Organic Brown Rice
Black Beans (Drained and Rinsed),Optional
Jalapenos
1/2 teaspoon of Cumin
1/2 teaspoon of Paprika
8 Soft Tortillas
2 Cans of Organic Cream of Chicken Soup (you can make your own but let's be honest this is supposed to be a quick recipe, it doesn't have to be though.
Toppings:
Homemade Salsa*
Sour Cream
Mature Cheddar Cheese
Directions: For Crock Pot if you choose.
Place chicken in Crock Pot and completely cover with water and cook on high for 4 hours. When done take the chicken out and shred. If you don't want to use a crock pot, don't have one or don't have time, you can bake chicken in the oven for about 20 mins on 350F or just slice and diced and cook it in a frying pan.
To make the rice place about 1 cup of rice in a pot, cover with about 1 inch of water, bring to a boil, stir once and then cover and simmer for 20 mins.
When both the chicken and rice are cooked put 1 and 1/2 cans of cream of chicken soup (saving half a can) in with the chicken as well as the cumin, paprika, some chopped jalapenos, black beans and brown rice and mix on a medium temp. Turn on the oven and heat to 180C (350F)
Place mix in each tortilla and then roll up the tortilla and place in baking tray. With the 1/2 of can of cream of chicken still left pour a bit over each tortilla then shred cheese on top of each tortilla with some more chopped jalapenos if you wish. Place in oven for 20 mins. Once done, serve with salsa and topped with sour cream. Enjoy
