This is probably one of my favorite recipes from the Curves Complete program. I use low-carb whole wheat flour tortillas because I'm not a big fan of corn tortillas, and a couple of other "free" alterations.
Chicken & Cheese Enchiladas
- 1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast
- 1 medium onion
- 2 oz fresh spinach leaves
- 8 tortillas
- 1 cup green enchilada sauce (or tomatillo salsa)
- 8 oz light mozzarella cheese (sometimes I substitute queso blanca)
- 8 Tbsp. light sour cream (optional)
- Diced green onion
- Cook chicken breast and shred. I find it easiest to bring it to a boil and boil 15 minutes.
- Dice onion and chop spinach leaves. Saute together until both soften.
- Mix chicken breast, vegetables and 1/2 of the cheese. (This is where I sprinkle in some cilantro and add a small can of diced green chilies to make it a little spicier.)
- Fill tortillas with chicken and vegetable mix. Roll to enclose, placing seam side down in a casserole dish.
- Top enchiladas with tomatillo salsa/enchilada sauce and remaining shredded cheese.
- Bake at 350-degrees F until the cheese is melted.
- Garnish with sour cream and diced green onion.
