ONE PAN SOUR CREAM CHICKEN ENCHILADA SKILLET

Scroll to Bottom for Printable Recipe Card.

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 an amazing 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 all you need is one skillet to cook and serve.

Just take it from the oven directly to the dinner table while it is still hot and bubbly and be careful not to burn yourself. Your family will love this one.

WHAT TO SERVE WITH SOUR CREAM CHICKEN ENCHILADA SKILLET?

I would definitely serve this with a tomato and avocado salad. I think they are the best additions to this amazing dish.

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. 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. When adding the chicken stock to the butter/flour mixture, whisk it 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!
