Debbie's Salsa Verde Chicken Enchiladas

Servings: 9 Enchiladas

Servings: 9 Enchiladas
Ingredients
  • 2.5 lb boneless chicken breasts or thighs cooked according to Salsa Verde Chicken recipe (about 4 breasts or 8 thighs)
  • 2 Tbsp all-purpose flour or corn starch
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 cup 0 fat plain yogurt
  • 16 oz jar of Medium Salsa Verde
  • 9 tortillas (I prefer whole wheat LaTortilla Factory pkg of 10)
  • 2 cups shredded Reduced fat 2% Mexican blend cheese
Steps
  1. Follow direction to make Salsa Verde Chicken. I've made with breasts and thighs and think the thighs were best.
  2. After removing meat from the pressure cooker, cut or cube. Strain liquid and reserve tomatillo (Salsa Verde) mixture.
  3. Add enough water to the liquid to make 2 cups.  Add 1 tsp bouillon for each cup of water added and this will be the chicken broth.
  4. Turn on the pressure cooker and select Chicken setting.
  5. Stir cornstarch or flour into a small amount of the broth. Pour broth into the PC. When thoroughly dissolved add the flour/starch mixture to the broth and whisk until mixture boils and thickens.  Cook whisking constantly for a minute or 2. Turn PC to warm.
  6. Add all strained tomatillo mixture to the broth. Taste. If needed add the jar of Salsa Verde.  I use the entire jar.
  7. Add sour cream and yogurt by first tempering the cream/yogurt. Whisk thoroughly.
  8. Spray a 9x 13 pan with non stick spray.
  9. Pour just enough sauce mixture into the pan to cover the bottom, about ¾ cup.
  10. Warm 4 to 5 tortillas at a time in the microwave. On each tortilla use ⅓ cup of chicken and 1 to 2 T shredded cheese. Roll up and place seam side down in 9"x13" pan.
  11. After all Enchiladas have been made, cover them with the remaining sour cream mixture. Top with remaining cheese.
  12. If cooking immediately, heat oven to 350 and cook about 25 minutes. If cooking refrigerated Enchiladas, cook 30 to 35 minutes or until hot and bubbly.
