Chicken Enchiladas

"This is a favorite among family and friends. My husbands friends are always asking when I'm going to make them these great enchiladas. I got this recipe from an aunt. Serve with spanish rice and a salad for a great meal. They make great leftovers the next day too."

  1. We loved this recipe and it is easy. I did use low fat cream of chicken soup and used only 1 - 8oz. bag of shredded colby/jack cheese (1 cup in sauce and 1 cup over top) and it turned out great!
     
  2. They were ok, but not something I will be making again.
     
  3. Delicious! I always hated having to fry the tortillas individually in oil first. With this recipe, you don't have to. I followed directions exactly and it came out perfect, just like in a restaurant. Yum. Served with a boxed Spanish rice mix. Will make it again soon. I am sending the recipe to my daughter.
     
  4. Very yummy! I didn't rate it 5 stars because they don't have that super authentic taste, but still very popular when I make them!
     
  5. These were ok. I thought personally that they made better burritos. My husband and I both agreed that not adding the sauce over the top and just eating them as burritos was much tastier!Maybe it was the two cans of sauce, I think you could do just the one can and they would be saucy enough.
