CHICKEN ENCHILADAS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with cooking spray; set aside.
• Place the chicken breasts on a jelly roll pan. Drizzle each breast on both sides with 1 tablespoon olive oil. In a small bowl, mix together the taco seasoning, cumin, oregano and black pepper; sprinkle evenly over both sides of the chicken breasts. Roast for 15 to 20 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the pan from the oven and allow to cool for 15 minutes. Shred the chicken and set aside.
• Meanwhile, in a medium skillet over medium heat, melt the butter until shimmering, about 2 minutes. Add the onions and saute until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the green chiles and saute for 1 minute. Stir in the cream cheese, ranch seasoning and the shredded chicken. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the cream cheese melts, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Lay the tortillas flat on a clean dry surface and spoon 2 to 3 tablespoons of the chicken mixture down the center of each. Roll up the tortillas and place them, seam-side down, in the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle with the Monterey Jack. Pour the picante sauce over the rolled tortillas and cheese. Bake until browned and bubbly, 45 minutes.

• Heat the oil in a small skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the tortillas until golden but still pliable, about 10 seconds per side. Transfer to paper towels to drain.
• Put the tortillas on a work surface. Divide the shredded chicken evenly among the tortillas and roll up each like a cigar. Spread 1/3 cup sauce in a 9 by 13-inch glass baking dish. Arrange the enchiladas, seam-side down, in one layer snugly inside the dish. Pour the remaining sauce over the enchiladas.
• Drizzle with the Mexican crema and sprinkle the cheese all over. Bake until the cheese melts and starts to brown in spots, about 30 minutes. Serve immediately.
