Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 375°F
-
In the mixing bowl, combine your chicken, chopped Hatch peppers, shredded cheddar cheese, and shredded Monterey Jack cheese. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
-
Warm up the corn tortillas in the microwave for about 30 seconds on high, or wrap them in foil and heat them in the oven for 10 minutes.
-
Pour 1/2 cup of the enchilada sauce into the bottom of the baking dish.
-
Dip each warmed tortilla into the enchilada sauce to coat it.
-
Spoon about 2 to 3 tablespoons of the chicken mixture into each tortilla, then roll it up and place it seam-side down into the baking dish.
-
Repeat with the remaining tortillas.
-
Pour the remaining enchilada sauce over the rolled tortillas in the baking dish, then sprinkle with more shredded cheese.
-
Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 30 minutes.
-
Remove the foil and bake for another 10 to 15 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
-
Remove from the oven and let the enchilada cool for a few minutes before serving.
-
Serve with sour cream, chopped fresh cilantro, and sliced avocado if desired.
