Ingredients

• 12 pieces Corn tortillas
• 3 cups Cooked, shredded chicken
• 8 medium Tomatillos
• 2 medium Jalapeño peppers
• 2 pieces Garlic cloves
• 1 medium White onion
• 1 cup Fresh cilantro
• 1 cup Sour cream
• 1 cup Chicken broth
• 2 cups Shredded mozzarella cheese
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Peel and rinse the tomatillos. Place them in a medium saucepan with the jalapeño peppers and cover with water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 5-7 minutes until the tomatillos soften and turn a dull green color.

Step 2

Drain the tomatillos and peppers, then transfer them to a blender. Add garlic, roughly chopped onion, cilantro, sour cream, chicken broth, salt, and black pepper. Blend until the sauce is smooth and creamy.

Step 3

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 4

Heat the vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Lightly fry each tortilla, one by one, for 10 seconds on each side to make them pliable. Drain on paper towels.

Step 5

Spread 1/4 cup of the prepared sauce in the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish.

Step 6

Fill each tortilla with shredded chicken, roll it tightly, and place it seam side down in the baking dish. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and chicken.

Step 7

Pour the remaining sauce over the rolled tortillas, ensuring they are fully covered. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the top.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 9

Remove the enchiladas from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Step 10

Garnish with additional cilantro if desired and serve hot.
