  • 3 cups of Rotisserie chicken shredded
  • 4 cups grated Mexican Cheese blend
  • 1 (14.5 ounce) can of green enchilada sauce
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • ½ cup fresh chopped onion OR ¼ cup dried onion flakes
  • ½ teaspoon cumin
  • ¼ cup 2% milk
  • 3 green onions diced
  • 12 white corn tortillas
  • 2 Tablespoons vegetable oil

  • In a small sauce pan, add ½ inch of vegetable oil and heat over medium-high heat.
  • Flash-fry each tortilla for 5–10 seconds and place on a paper towel-lined plate. Use caution when frying in hot oil! Place a good-sized pinch of cheese down the middle of each tortilla. Follow with two tablespoons of shredded chicken.

  • Top with remaining cup of cheese. Sprinkle with chopped green onion.
  • Bake at 350° degrees for 30–40 minutes until cheese is melted and sauce is bubbly.
