How to Make Chicken Enchiladas with Creamy Tomatillo Sauce

cream cheese

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: sour cream

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

Peel tomatillos and heat olive oil in a pan.

Add tomatillos, garlic, serrano chilis, and spring onion to the pan.

Cook until softened, about 2-3 minutes, adding sea salt and water as needed.

Transfer the mixture to a blender and add cilantro and epazote; blend until smooth.

Return the blended sauce to the pot and fry it in a little oil.

Add 1/2 cup of heavy whipping cream to the sauce and mix well.

Warm tortillas in a pan with a little oil to soften them.

Fill each tortilla with pulled roasted chicken and cheese, folding them like tacos.

Cover the enchiladas with the hot sauce and bake until the cheese is melted.

Garnish with sour cream, sliced white onion, cotija cheese, and cilantro.
