How to make it

  • Preheat oven to 450.
  • Season the chicken with salt and pepper.
  • Put chicken and garlic cloves on a rimmed baking sheet.
  • Bake 25 to 30 minutes.
  • In a large bowl, combine salsa and cream.
  • Reduce oven to 350 degrees.
  • When the chicken is cool enough, shred meat, getting rid of skin and bones.
  • Peel and chop garlic.
  • In a large bowl, combine the chicken, garlic, and 1/2 cup salsa mixture.
  • Stack the tortillas, and wrap in damp paper towels.
  • Microwave on high for 1 minute.
  • Taking one tortilla at a time, dip in the salsa mixture, lay flat, and fill with 1/3 cup chicken mixture.
  • Roll up each tortilla and arrange, seam side down in a 9-by-13-inch baking dish.
  • Top with remaining salsa mixture, then cheese.
  • Bake 40 to 45 minutes, until cheese is nicely browned.
  • Let the enchiladas sit for 10 minutes before serving, and sprinkle with cilantro, if desired.

    I made this last night and my family licked their plates! I used a few more garlic cloves, being Sicilian we love garlic and served it with mexican rice and refried beans [homeade of course!] with a little cheese grated on the top of the beans. For an appetizer, I served refried beans and salsa with homeade tortilla chips! Mmmmm This was soooo yummy! If I could give it 10 stars, I would! Regina [Trtlduv89rh@yahoo.com]
