Description

A comforting low-carb dish perfect for gatherings or a weeknight dinner.


Ingredients

  • 2 cups shredded cooked chicken
  • 1 cup sour cream (low-fat option)
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup cream cheese (softened)
  • 1 cup diced green chiles
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 5 low-carb tortillas
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1 teaspoon lime juice


Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Combine the shredded chicken, sour cream, cheddar cheese, cream cheese, green chiles, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, and season with salt and pepper in a large mixing bowl.
  3. Warm low-carb tortillas in a pan for about 10 seconds on each side if they may break.
  4. Take a tortilla and spoon about 1/4 cup of the chicken mixture into the center; roll it up tightly and place it seam-side down in a greased 9×13 baking dish.
  5. Whisk together the chicken broth, sour cream, garlic powder, onion powder, lime juice, and salt and pepper in a small saucepan over medium heat until warm.
  6. Pour the white sauce over the rolled enchiladas and sprinkle remaining cheddar cheese on top.
  7. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until hot and bubbly.
  8. Let it cool slightly before serving. Garnish with fresh cilantro or green onions if desired.

Notes

Use leftover chicken for added flavor and consider adding veggies for a healthier twist.
