Ingredients
- 2 whole boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 8 ounces cream cheese
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 4-ounce can green chilies
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 8 pieces low-carb tortillas
- 0.25 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- 4 pieces lime wedges
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
Rub the chicken breasts with olive oil and season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
Step 3
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the chicken breasts for 5-7 minutes on each side until fully cooked and golden brown. Remove from the pan and let cool slightly before shredding.
Step 4
In a saucepan over medium heat, combine cream cheese, sour cream, green chilies, and chicken broth. Stir until the sauce is smooth and creamy.
Step 5
Set aside 1 cup of the sauce and mix the remaining amount with the shredded chicken.
Step 6
Spoon the chicken mixture evenly down the center of each low-carb tortilla and roll them up tightly. Place them seam-side down in a greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
Step 7
Pour the reserved sauce over the enchiladas and sprinkle with mozzarella cheese.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Step 9
Remove from the oven and garnish with chopped cilantro before serving with lime wedges on the side.
