Here is how you make Liz's Chicken Enchiladas:

makes 16 enchiladasNote that the prep time depends entirely upon whether or not you have prepped the meat in advance or not, or are using left over meat (this is a great recipe for left over meat!)To make the sauce, mix all of the ingredients together in a sauce pan,then let it come to a boil; reduce heat. Simmer for 5 minutes.To make the filling, while the meat is still mostly frozen, slice VERY thin(almost to a shaved consistency) -- if this would be too much for the wrist,buy fajita cut meat and don't cut any smaller -- you'll have bigger chunksof meat, but you won't risk hurting your wrist. Once the meat is cut,place in a large frying pan -- sprinkle with seasonings of your choice.I usually use some kosher salt, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper (just a little bit -- not enough to make it really spicy -- just enough for a mild kick)...once the meat is fairly well browned, ladle in one or two ladle fulls of the sauce,then add the cheese. Stir until the cheese is melted and the sauce is reduced to a fairly thick consistency.Heat the oven to 375To make the enchiladas;one each tortilla, spoon some of the filling into the center, add some cheese, then roll as if you were rolling a burrito: sides in, then roll.Place the enchilada seam side down in a 13x9x2 pan. Continue until the pan is full. pour as much of the sauce over the enchiladas as the pan willhold, then sprinkle 1-2 cups more of grated cheese over the top. Placethe pan in the oven for 15-20 minutes until the cheese is well melted and browned.Garnish with whatever veggies you want (we like sour cream, lettuce,and tomatoes), and enjoy!Number of Servings: 16Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user MNFIDDLEDRAGON.
