These classic Chicken Enchiladas balance simplicity with big flavor in every bite. Tender shredded chicken combines with mild cheddar and green chilies, then gets wrapped in corn tortillas and blanketed with enchilada sauce. The cheese melts into a golden brown crust during baking, while a dollop of sour cream adds the perfect cooling finish. Easy enough for weeknights yet satisfying enough for entertaining, this Mexican comfort food classic comes together in just 15 minutes of baking time.
