EASY 6 INGREDIENT CHICKEN ENCHILADAS
I've tried more complicated enchilada recipes, but this is the standing favorite. The spiciness level is really easy to manage by what salsa and chilies are used. I use hot chilies, 1/2 cup of medium salsa, and 1/2 cup of hot salsa. You can also change the cheese if you wish, I will sometimes use colby or mozzarella depending on what I have most of. I use shredded chicken breasts, but any chicken should work fine. Fresh cilantro tastes good in the salsa mix, but that would make it 7 ingredients, so I left that out! Enjoy!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F.

- Add the shredded chicken to the salsa mixture.
- Roll the chicken/salsa mix in the tortillas and place seam-side down in a 13 x 9" glass baking dish.
- Pour the whipping cream over the top. It will not cover the enchiladas, but make sure to get a coating of whipping cream all over.
- Cover and bake for 30 minutes or until the whipping cream is bubbly.
- Uncover, sprinkle cheese on top and bake until cheese is melted and at desired crispiness.

SOUR CREAM CHICKEN ENCHILADAS
The popular "Magnolia Table" cookbooks by Joanna Gaines are full of Texas classics like king ranch, chicken spaghetti and this creamy version of chicken enchiladas. The combination of tart salsa verde (which has tomatillos and green chiles) with cream and melted cheese makes it special; don't use red enchilada sauce here. The cream of chicken soup mixed with the chicken meat makes a super-rich filling, but you can absolutely use an additional 8 ounces of sour cream instead if you prefer.

Steps:
- Position an oven rack in the top third of the oven and heat the oven to 350 degrees. Coat a deep 9-by-13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the enchilada sauce, condensed soup and sour cream. Spread 1/2 cup in the baking dish; set aside the remaining 3 1/2 cups creamy enchilada sauce.
- In a medium bowl, combine the chicken and chiles (including any liquid from the can); set aside.
- Sprinkle about 2 heaping tablespoons mozzarella on a tortilla, then add a heaping 1/3 cup of the shredded chicken and chiles. Tightly roll up the tortilla and place it seam side down in the prepared baking dish. Continue filling and rolling the remaining tortillas with 2 tablespoons mozzarella and a heaping 1/3 cup chicken mixture, placing the tortillas in the baking dish as they are filled, pushing the rolled tortillas as needed to fit in a single layer.
- Pour the reserved creamy enchilada sauce over the filled tortillas. Bake for 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and sprinkle the remaining mozzarella on top. Bake until the cheese is melted, about 15 minutes. If you'd like it to be a bit browner in spots, you can pop it under the broiler for another minute or two.
- Sprinkle enchiladas with tomato and cilantro and pass with lime wedges for squeezing on top. Serve enchiladas with rice and beans, if desired. Store leftovers in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days; reheat in a 300-degree oven.

SPECIAL INGREDIENT CHICKEN ENCHILADAS
This is a great recipe with something special. The cinnamon addition gives it a great little something that people can't quite figure out. It's that mixture of sweet and spicy flavors that has been so popular at our house and it smells heavenly when heating in the oven. You can also make this dish ahead of time reserving only the cheese. I add the cheese at the last minute and bake it in the oven at 350 for about 30 minutes so it can be done even a day ahead. It's also easily doubled and adapted for those who like things a little less spicy.
