To begin with this particular recipe, we must prepare a few ingredients. You can have baked chicken enchiladas using 9 ingredients and 12 steps. Here is how you can achieve that.

The ingredients needed to make Baked Chicken Enchiladas:
  1. Take 3 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  2. Prepare 1 (8 oz.) pkg. cream cheese, softened
  3. Get 1 cup sour cream
  4. Make ready 2 cups salsa (I use Pace Picante)
  5. Prepare 1 can Rotel, drained
  6. Prepare 1 (8 oz.) pkg. Monterey Jack Cheese
  7. Take 1 (8 oz.) pkg. Colby Jack Cheese
  8. Prepare 20-25 corn tortillas
  9. Make ready Toppings: sour cream, green onions

I like cooking the chicken breasts in my Instant Pot®, although a rotisserie chicken can. I like to use a rotisserie chicken here for so many valid reasons: You have a combination of white meat and dark meat which yields a more flavorful filling. For some reason, a chicken that's cooked rotisserie-style is innately more flavorful than a chicken you would just bake or sear. Using a large shallow bowl, dip each tortilla in enchilada sauce to lightly coat.

Instructions to make Baked Chicken Enchiladas:
  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Cook chicken either in pressure cooker or stovetop with seasonings as desired. Once cooked, drain off juices and add Rotel.
  2. Shred completely and set aside.
  3. Shred cheeses and set aside.
  4. Slice up green onions if desired for topping and set aside.
  5. Combine cream cheese and sour cream until smooth. Add in 1 cup of salsa and 1/2 of each of the cheeses. Mix until well combined.
  6. Fold in the chicken completely.
  7. Wrap tortillas in a damp paper towel and heat up in microwave until soft and pliable.
  8. Coat 2 baking dishes with nonstick cooking spray and spread out 1/2 cup of salsa between the two on bottom of dishes.
  9. Fill each tortilla with a heaping spoonful of filling and roll up; place seam side down in pans. Spoon remaining 1/2 cup salsa over the tops.
  10. Top with remaining cheese.
  11. Bake for 20 minutes or until hot and bubbly.
  12. Enjoy!
