  9. Take 1 lb Monterey Jack Cheese, shredded. Any Cheese may be used if you prefer something different
  10. Prepare 8 oz Small container of sour cream. I used only about half the container
  11. Take 1 cup milk
  12. Take other

The only skill required is in measuring, the rest just works itself out! Roll up in tortillas and place in pan. Add broth and whisk until smooth. Heat over medium heat until thick and bubbly.

Steps to make Cara's White Chicken Enchiladas:
  1. Slow cooker: Add chicken broth, onions, garlic, seasonings & chicken. Cover & cook on low 6-8 hrs or high 4 hours.
  2. Shred cooked chicken & reserve broth. Remove onions if desired. Place chicken in a skillet with 1/2 cup of broth to keep moisture. Simmer on low.
  3. In a different skillet, add remaining broth, 2 pkgs of cream cheese, 1 can rotel, 1/2 container of sour cream, 1 cup milk & 1/2 of the shredded cheese. Season as desired & keep on medium heat. Stir frequently to help cheeses melt.
  4. Once the sauce is completely liquid, you can test the flavor to see if more seasonings need to be added. Lower heat to simmer (low)
  5. Next, spoon about 1/2 cup to 1 cup of sauce over the shredded chicken. Stir & coat well. This will help keep it together when spooning in tortillas.
  6. Lightly coat the bottom of a 9×13 pan with sauce to prevent sticking & burning during baking.
  7. Dip one side of tortilla in sauce & lay that side down in baking dish. The dry side is where you will spoon the chicken. Roll up, seam side down. Repeat until you run out of space or chicken, or tortillas!
  8. Remaining sauce & chicken(if any) now gets poured over the enchiladas. Top with remaining cheese. Bake at 350° for 20 min, covered. Uncover another 10min. Let sit 10-15min before eating. This prevents the sauce from being too runny when serving. Enjoy!

Stir in sour cream and chilies. Do not bring to boil, you don't want curdled sour cream. Pour over enchiladas and top with remaining. Made with corn tortillas instead of flour ones, this is a creamy, delicious, decadent dinner! Because of the white cheese sauce, these white chicken enchiladas are very filling.
