1 whole cooked chicken or 1 package of Trader Joe's Just Chicken or Costco Rotisserie Chicken Meat.
Trader Joe's enchilada sauce or your favorite
grated Mexican cheese
corn or flour tortillas (I prefer corn.)
Shred chicken
Heat the sauce
Heat the chicken in a small amount of sauce
Spread small amount of sauce in bottom of 9 x 13 baking dish
Put some of the sauce on a plate and dip both sides of flour tortillas in the sauce
Place enough chicken and cheese in each tortilla so you can still roll them up.
Roll up each tortilla and place side by side in baking dish until it is full.
Pour remaining sauce on top and sprinkle generously with more cheese.
Bake at 350° for 1/2 hour.
Uncle Dave's Variation - Enchilada Casserole
I use corn tortillas instead of flour.
Spread the sauce on the bottom of the pan and then place a layer of corn tortillas.
Spread sauce on the top of the tortillas, then about a third of the cheese and half the meat.
Make another layer of tortillas, coating each side with sauce.
And then another layer of the rest of the meat and a third of the cheese.
Finally, add a top layer of tortillas, coated with sauce and covered with the remaining cheese.
Bake as instructed above.

💬 Uncle Dave says...
I made these today, but I didn't have any chicken, so I used a couple of cans of chili and also a layer of refried beans. Of course they were delicious.
