Unlock ultimate comfort with these Tasty White Rotisserie Chicken Enchiladas! Shredded chicken, zesty green chiles, and a luxurious creamy white sauce. Detailed instructions, full nutrition facts.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 large rotisserie chicken, shredded (about 3–4 cups)
  • 12 (8-inch) flour tortillas
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 small white onion, finely diced
  • 1 (4 oz) can diced green chiles, undrained
  • 1 (8 oz) package cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 2 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Prepare the chicken filling. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the finely diced white onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the shredded rotisserie chicken and the can of diced green chiles (undrained). Season with a pinch of salt and pepper, and cook for another 2-3 minutes, just to heat through. Remove from heat and set aside.
  2. Step 2: Make the creamy white sauce. In a medium saucepan, combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, and 1 cup of chicken broth (or milk if preferred) over medium-low heat. Whisk continuously until the cream cheese is fully melted and the sauce is smooth and creamy. Season the sauce with salt and pepper to taste.
  3. Step 3: Assemble the enchiladas. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9×13 inch baking dish. Take a flour tortilla, spoon about 2-3 tablespoons of the chicken filling down the center, and sprinkle with a small amount of shredded Monterey Jack cheese. Roll up the tortilla tightly and place it seam-side down in the prepared baking dish. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.
  4. Step 4: Cover and bake. Pour the creamy white sauce evenly over the rolled enchiladas in the baking dish, ensuring they are all well-coated. Sprinkle the remaining Monterey Jack cheese generously over the top of the sauce.
  5. Step 5: Bake until golden and bubbly. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the sauce is bubbly and the cheese on top is melted and lightly golden brown. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • These enchiladas are fantastic as leftovers; simply cover tightly and refrigerate for up to three days, and enjoy how the flavors deepen overnight.
  • To enjoy them warm again, either gently reheat individual portions in the microwave or cover the baking dish with foil and warm in a 300°F (150°C) oven until bubbly.
  • Complement the creamy richness with a fresh side like a vibrant pico de gallo, a crisp green salad, or a sprinkle of fresh cilantro for a bright finish.
  • Keep that delicious liquid from the diced green chiles! Adding them undrained to the chicken filling ensures maximum flavor and moisture, truly enhancing the "tasty" in your enchiladas.
