My brother-in-law makes these all the time. His 5 year old daughter does everything but the grilling of the chicken so you know they are easy to make. I love one dish meals, especially with alot of yummy cheese so you gotta know I needed this recipe! I use the Tyson chicken strips that are precooked since I don’t have alot of time to prep and they are just as good as his. You can find the Tyson strips in the aisle with the prepacked bacon at your local market. Once you give these a try you will want to make them often. Your family will thank you!

I love one dish meals, especially with alot of yummy cheese so you gotta know I needed this recipe!
- 2 cans Campbell's Cream of Chicken soup
- 1 cup sour cream
- 2 TBS butter or margarine
- 1 cup chopped onion
- 2 tsp chili powder
- 4 chicken breasts cooled and cubed I use the already made fiesta chicken strips found in the lunch meat isle
- 8 oz chopped green chiles
- 1 package of 8-10 flour tortillas
- 12 oz bag co-jack shredded cheese
- 2 TBS diced jalapeño peppers
-
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

In a small bowl stir together soup and sour cream until smooth. Set mixture aside.
-
In large frying pan (or 2 qt saucepan) over medium heat, add in hot margarine and cook onion and chili powder until onion is tender, stirring often.
-
Stir in chicken, chilies, and (4) TBS of soup mixture. Jalapeño peppers can be added to the mixture now, or to individual enchiladas in step #6.
-
Remove from heat.
-
Spread chicken mixture along center of tortilla.
-
Place enchiladas seam side down in a 13x9 baking dish.
-
Spread remaining soup mixture over enchiladas.
-
Sprinkle shredded cheese over the entire contents of the baking dish.

Mission brand tortillas work better than Aztec brand.
Chicken can be cooked between steps #3 or #4 or can be grilled.

I really hate posting things I love to eat. I crave it for a week! They are so good. Have a wonderful week.
Cheesy Enchiladas sound good. IT has been a really long time since I have made enchiladas.
These little cheaters are so easy!! And they look like you spent all day making them. Have a wonderful week.
I love getting my kids involved in the cooking, though they haven’t done anything this complex. Can’t wait to give them the challenge. Thanks so much for sharing at the #happynowlinkup!
This one isn’t very hard and requires little strict supervision. They will love the mixing and filling. Enjoy! Have a wonderful week.
Those enchiladas are making me hungry now! I’d love for you to share over at a new party called Let’s Party

Probably one of my favourite comforting meals, and the more cheese the better! #CookBlogShare
I hear you Donna. I LOVE cheese on my cheese. LOL. Have a great week.
This sounds like some cheesy comfort food. I love how quick and simple it is with the use of pre-cooked chicken and canned soup
This dish definitely looks like it takes longer to make than it really does. I love it! Thanks Patrick. Enjoy your week.
Sounds like my kids would like this! But I feel like I really need to add salsa to this somehow.
I’ll be pinning and tweeting this recipe. Greetings from the Inspire Me Monday linky!
The addition of slasa sound great! I am thinking adding it to the chicken strips mixture?? My kids would love it. Have a great week.
These look great too! Two of my kids are fussy about fajitas when I make them but I think they would eat these. Thanks for sharing
Thanks Louise. I have found in my home anything that has cheese running all over it gets gobbled down. They love cheesy broccoli and cauliflower too! Have a great week.
Oh Marilyn…these look so good and cheesy!! Thanks for sharing at the What’s for Dinner party – and have an awesome week!
My 9 year old grand loves making these. I just get the ingredients out and away she goes! Have a great week!
Maybe I should just pin your entire site! That’s two of your recipes I chose to view from the What’s for Dinner? Link Up!
I would go for that! But I am glad you enjoy visiting. Nice to know parties work for new viewers. Have a great week!
If you delivered, I’d be ordered those!
I would need to deliver in person. You make the dessert and I will be there!! Have a great week.
Yum! Enchiladas are my favorite and these look so delicious!
Thank you Justin! Enjpy. Have a great week!
I’ve been craving enchiladas and this was the first post I saw when I got on my computer today. I think it’s a sign that I need to make them!! lol. They sound declicious. Can’t wait to try them.
Now that is providence. I never let that go unnoticed! Enjoy. Have a great week!
Pinned and shared. I have made chicken enchiladas before but not with chicken soup. Have to give this recipe a try!
🙂 gwingal
This is so easy. Especially when you buy the dairy ready done chicken. I love the options. Thanks for the pin! Have a great week!
I have made these for years for my family, they are are favorite. Recently due to hubby getting a quadruple bypass I had to rethink old recipes, and switch up ingredients. One thing I have done is exchange plain no fat Greek yogurt for sour cream in this recipe. (And in most others as well) I’ve always used cream of mushroom soup, just personal preference. Thanks for posting this though, I had lost my recipe card which had the amounts of ingredients and time on oven. I really didn’t feel like winging it tonight!
Sorry to hear about your husband. I have used Greek yogurt in the Cheesy Chicken Enchiladas and it has worked very well. Thx for visiting. Have a good week!
Sounds tasty Marilyn and easy too! Thanks for sharing the recipe with us at Over the Moon Link Up. x
Thaks Sue! I love that linkup. ????
Hi Marilyn! Just wanted to thank you for allowing us to use your recipes! The Chicken Enchilada recipe will be featured in the August, 2016 edition of the Ruby Magazine! We will also feature it as a blog on the Ruby blog at some point in August. Please watch your e-mail, because once it is posted, we will send you the link for your page!
Have a wonderful Tuesday!!
God Bless!
Thank you so much Nina. I am so excited to be a part of this wonderful magazine!
Yum, yum! Sounds just like my moms chicken enchiladas!
What a sweet compliment April! Thank you for sharing that.
Yum, yum, yum. But I have 1 question: how much flour? It’s mentioned in the instructions, but not listed in the ingredients. Thanks!
Cheryl! So glad you noticed! It is a typo. I must have been thinking ahead to flour tortilla and didn’t catch it. You get a cookie! There is no flour in this recipe. I am fixing it now. Thanks for catching it. My original hand written instructions had it too.
