Steps:
- Put it all filling ingredients in a skillet
- heat it till the cream cheese melts,
- fill the corn tortillas (you can use flour shells, but they tend to get a bit mushy.)
- If you want to stretch the recipe, add cooked rice to the chicken, and if you do, then use 2 pkg of cream cheese and 2 cans of chilies.
- Cilantro Pesto sauce.
- Puree the first three ingredients (it easiest in the food processor)
- slowly drizzle in oil with (if u pour it all in, it separates).
- In a bowl, mix cilantro pesto with broth and cream.
- pour sauce over enchiladas, I usually just pour it down the center of each row of shells -- if you put too much on, it becomes a bit soggy --
- add more when serving.
- Recipe makes more pesto sauce than what you will need so you can either use it for dressing or something else or freeze the extra.
- Top with grated parm cheese and bake for 30 minute at 350.

Steps:
- Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season both sides of the chicken with salt and pepper. Place the chicken in the hot pan and cook until golden brown and just cooked through, about 3 minutes per side.
- Meanwhile, place the pine nuts in a small dry skillet and set over medium heat. Toast the nuts until golden brown, about 3 minutes, shaking the pan frequently to prevent burning. Transfer the pine nuts to a blender or food processor and add cilantro, sour cream, the remaining 1 tablespoon oil, the garlic, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Process until smooth, adding water, as necessary, to create a thick paste. Serve the chicken with the pesto spooned over the top.
