ONE PAN SOUR CREAM CHICKEN ENCHILADA SKILLET

It’s no secret everyone loves enchiladas, but not everyone loves to roll each one, one by one. This dish makes enchilada making easy. It is a one-pan sour cream chicken enchilada skillet, so in my book, it makes it the best and easiest enchilada recipe around.

Green chilies and black olives give this enchilada skillet a spicy kick and great flavor. Corn tortillas also make it delicious. I personally think they are tastier than flour tortillas and topped with melted cheese, they are irresistible.

The best part is that you only need one skillet to cook and serve.

WHAT TO SERVE WITH SOUR CREAM CHICKEN ENCHILADA SKILLET?

All this one-pot meal needs is a delicious salad. My favorite is Cucumber, Tomato, and Onion Salad, but Caesar Salad and Tossed Salad are equally as delicious. To end this meal, a moist Pineapple Juice Cake is my dessert of choice.

FREEZE CHICKEN ENCHILADA;

This is one of those dishes you want to make, freeze, and have available for those days when you really don’t have time to cook. Just let it cool completely and put it in an airtight container, and freeze it for up to three months.

RECIPE TIPS:

  1. You can add chopped tomatoes, onions, and garlic if you want to add a bit more flavor to your enchilada skillet.
  2. Whisk the chicken stock into the butter/flour mixture to prevent clumps from forming.
  3. Don’t let this sauce thicken too much, or your enchilada skillet will be dry. Cook it just until it starts to thicken
  4. Don’t forget to add salt and pepper!
