Directions
Chicken Enchiladas With Sour Cream Sauce,This is a weekly request at my house. These enchiladas have a white creamy sauce instead of the traditional tomato based sauce. I’ve been asked for this recipe over and over again, so I thought I would post it. I love Mexican foods, and I think this is a wonderful dish. I hope you do too!,can you make this the night before and keep in fridge?,This was really good. used leftover chicken from dinner last night and followed the rest of the directions precisely. This was very quick and really easy. The canned jalapenos made this a little bit spicier than the kids can handle, so next time I will use fresh jalapenos because they seem to add less spice when use them. This will definitely be something I make to use up leftover chicken often. Thank you for another great recipe breezermom! Made for PAC Spring 2014.
