About Verde chicken enchilada

Verde Chicken Enchiladas are a delicious dish inspired by traditional Mexican cuisine, featuring tender shredded chicken wrapped in soft corn tortillas and smothered in a tangy green tomatillo salsa. This flavorful enchilada is often topped with melted cheese, fresh cilantro, and a side of rice or beans. It offers a good source of lean protein from the chicken and essential vitamins from the tomatillo-based sauce, which is rich in antioxidants like vitamin C. Using corn tortillas makes it naturally gluten-free, and the dish can be adapted with lighter cheese or dairy-free alternatives for healthier options. However, the calorie count may increase with generous additions of cheese or sour cream. These enchiladas provide a balance of comforting flavors and nutritional value, making them a satisfying choice for any meal.
