Famine Ending Chicken Enchiladas

by Morgan Daily


This will melt the faces of everyone who tries it... I won second place with this in Winter 2015 only behind some scrub who made chicken cordon blue (judges thought it was hard or something and gave him bonus points). At any rate, if you make this everyone in the class will want to be your friend and your self-esteem will rise a few points. Enjoy...

Ingredients:

  • Three cans of canned chicken (or about two pounds of boiled, shredded chicken)
  • One baggie of corn tortillas
  • Three cups of your favorite cheese
  • One big can of green enchilada sauce
  • One little can of green chili peppers
  • Sour Cream
  • Garlic powder
  • Taco seasoning
  • Cumin (DO NOT SKIP THIS INGREDIENT OR YOUR ENCHILADAS WILL SUCK)
Instructions:
  • Tear your tortillas into quarters, and line the bottom of your dutch oven. Make sure that the whole bottom is covered or your enchiladas will stick to everything

  • Cover the tortilla lining with a hearty amount of cheese and chicken, and then drizzle a little bit of your green sauce over it so that everything is slightly damp
  • Dust your creation with a little bit of cumin (DO NOT SKIP THIS) and taco seasoning

  • Do the same thing over again... Lay another layer of tortillas over your cheese/chicken, and and then cover it over with cheese, chicken, green sauce, cumin ( DONT SKIP!), taco sauce, and this time garlic powder



  • Repeat again... the idea is that you end up with like three or four layers of tortillas, cheese, chicken, green sauce drizzle, cumin, taco sauce, and garlic (the garlic should ONLY go on one or two layers or it will be overpowering)
  • Finally, mix the remaining green sauce (should be a lot left) with some sour cream to make it creamy, and the little green chili peppers. Pour this ALL OVER everything you already made
  • Dump the rest of your cheese on top of the green sauce, and then fling little scoops of sour cream randomly for good measure (can't have enough sour cream)

  • Get the coals going and cook this mother for about an hour at standard heat (10 coals underneath, 14 on top) until all the cheese melts... The chicken should be precooked to avoid your classmates getting salmonella, but you can just deny that it was your recipe that caused it as there are so many dishes being sampled on any given day


  • Uncap when the top is golden brown and serve up... Ta freakin Da, the end

  2. This is delicious! It makes a hearty amount so it's great for feeding a big group of people. You can never have too much cheese!

  3. I love mexican food and I loved making these. I always add extra butter for everything if anyone is wondering and lots of jalapenos. You can also add chopped onions like I did.

  4. Chicken enchiladas are one of my favorite foods! This recipe does not disappoint. I am personally a fan of less tortillas so I did only the top and bottom layer and it turned out great. Also I added a bit more of the enchilada sauce for the flavor.
