Grill the chicken breasts for 3-4 minutes on each side until fully cooked.

Chop the grilled chicken into small cubes.

In a skillet, dry sauté 1 cup of minced onions until translucent.

Add 1 cup of minced cilantro to the onions and sauté until wilted.

Heat about 1/4 cup of oil in a skillet for frying tortillas.

Quickly fry each flour tortilla in the hot oil until pliable, flipping briefly.

Assemble the enchiladas by placing a tablespoon of tomatillo sauce, a teaspoon of cilantro onion mix, a handful of chicken, and some cheese in each tortilla before rolling them up.
