Low Carb Chicken Enchilada Recipe

LeanLioness

If anyone is interested, here is a recipe for a lower carb chicken enchilada recipe, I tweaked it a bit from a regular recipe........

Ingredients:

1 tablespoon butter
1/2 cup chopped green onions
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
2 (4 ounce) can diced green chiles
1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of chicken soup
1 cup sour cream
1 1/2 cups cubed cooked chicken breast meat
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese, divided
6 (12 inch) flour tortillas (Mission Low Carb)


Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a large baking dish.

2. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter and saute the green onion until tender (about 3 to 4 minutes). Add the garlic powder, then stir in the green chiles, cream of chicken soup and sour cream. Mix well. Reserve 3/4 of this sauce and set aside. To the remaining 1/4 of the sauce in the saucepan, add the chicken and 1/2 cup of shredded Cheddar cheese. Stir together.

3. Fill each flour tortilla with the chicken mixture and roll up. Place seam side down in the prepared baking dish.

4. In a small bowl combine the reserved 3/4 of the sauce with the milk. Spoon this mixture over the rolled tortillas and top with the remaining 1/2 cup of shredded Cheddar cheese. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until cheese is bubbly.
