Method
Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
- In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, 1/2 cup Monterey Jack cheese, green onions, and cilantro. Mix well and set aside.
- Warm the tortillas in the microwave or on a skillet until pliable to prevent cracking when rolling.
Cooking
- In a medium saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Whisk in flour and cook for 1-2 minutes until lightly golden and fragrant.
- Gradually whisk in the chicken broth, stirring constantly until the sauce thickens, about 3-4 minutes.
- Remove from heat and stir in sour cream, chopped green chilies, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until smooth.
- Dip each tortilla briefly into the sauce, then fill with about 1/4 cup of the chicken mixture and a sprinkle of mozzarella cheese. Roll up and place seam side down in the prepared baking dish.
- Pour the remaining sauce evenly over the enchiladas and sprinkle with the remaining Monterey Jack and mozzarella cheese.
Finishing
- Bake the enchiladas uncovered for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Remove from oven and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
- Garnish with sliced avocado, extra chopped cilantro, and lime wedges as desired.
