These enchiladas are delicious! I’ve made it numerous times and altered it by using rotisserie chicken to save time, and it adds a ton of flavor! The best sour cream enchiladas I’ve ever had! I’m getting so many compliments!
- I adored it. Though I am a person who enjoys tinkering. The only difference was in how I prepared the chicken. I cooked the chicken and diced the onion while it was cooking. I shredded the chicken after it was cooked. I put the onions, additional chilies, Rotel, and cumin in a pan and let them cook for a few minutes before adding the chicken, picante sauce, and more cumin. Then I simply mixed it all together and proceeded to follow the remainder of the directions.
- I’ve made this a few times. I made it precisely as instructed the first time, and it was tasty but dull. The second time, I used Rotel instead of chilies, which helped slightly, but not everyone liked the spiciness. I made it again tonight in a double batch, but this time I added a McCormick enchilada dry sauce packet (just the flavor, no packet guidelines) and about 3 spoonfuls of minced garlic to the beef and onions while it was cooking. When I made the sauce, I substituted garlic butter for half of the butter. This greatly improved the flavor while remaining fairly mild. I also served it with salsas so that people could adjust the level of heat to their liking. I also used carb smart tortilla wraps, which worked perfectly!
