Ingredients

  • 4 chicken breasts
  • 1 package uncooked tortillas, or ready made
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped or pureed onions
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 3 tbsp flour
  • 8 oz light or regular sour cream
  • 2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
  • 2 oz chopped green chilies
  • 1-1/2 cups shreeded Mexican style cheese

Preparation

Poach/boil chicken until no longer pink. When cool, cut into bite size pieces, set aside. Saute onion, garlic in butter. Mix sour cream with flour, then add to onion mixture. Add the chicken broth and chilies and cook over medium heat until thick and bubbly. Remove from heat and add 3/4 cup cheese. Pour HALF of the cheese/onion mixture over the chicken and mix. Grease 11 x 7 pan. Divide the chicken mixture into the tortillas and roll up, seam side down. Pour remaining sauce over tortillas and sprinkle remaining cheese on top. Bake at 350 for 35 minutes. Please note that I cook the tortillas one at a time, according to package directions. I prefer the the taste and more authentic look.
