Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Cook Chicken: Boil, bake, or grill chicken until fully cooked. Shred or dice. **Ingredient Note:** Already cooked rotisserie chicken is a great shortcut.
  2. Prepare Rich Chipotle Enchilada Sauce: In a medium saucepan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add finely chopped onion and minced garlic; cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, and dried oregano. Cook for 1 minute more. Stir in tomato paste and minced chipotle peppers. Cook another minute. **Flavor Enhancement:** Smoking paprika enhances smoky profile.
  3. Add Liquids: Stir in Campbell's Broth and Kraft Peanut Butter. Bring to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  4. Thicken Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together corn starch and 2 tablespoons of cold water. Pour into the simmering sauce and cook, stirring constantly, until the sauce has thickened.
  5. Combine Chicken and Sauce: In a large bowl, combine the cooked chicken with 1 cup of the enchilada sauce. Add ½ cup shredded cheese. **Flavor Enhancement:** Mixing cheese into the filling adds extra richness
  6. Warm Tortillas: Lightly fry corn tortillas in a pan with a touch of oil, or microwave until pliable. **Technique Refinement:** Frying briefly gives better texture
  7. Assemble Enchiladas: Fill each tortilla with the chicken mixture and roll up. Place seam-side down in a baking dish.
  8. Top with Sauce and Cheese: Pour the remaining enchilada sauce over the enchiladas and sprinkle with the remaining 1 1/2 cups of shredded cheese.
  9. Bake: Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and lightly browned. **Technique Refinement:** Don't overbake to keep moist
  10. Garnish and Serve: Let cool slightly. Garnish with sour cream and green onion, if desired. Serve immediately. **Flavor Enhancement:** Cooled slightly enchiladas are less likely to fall apart when served.
