Chicken Or Turkey Enchiladas

Total Time: 50 mins Preparation Time: 20 mins Cook Time: 30 mins

Ingredients

  • Servings: 4
  • 2 cooked chicken breasts (or equivalent turkey)
  • 8 ounces low-fat cream cheese
  • 1 cup half & half light cream (or use cream)
  • 1 teaspoon vinegar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons chili powder
  • salt and pepper
  • 4 ounces butter
  • 6 -12 corn tortillas
  • 8 ounces gruyere cheese
  • cayenne pepper (optional)

Recipe

  • 1 section meat and mix lightly with cream cheese.
  • 2 form into logs about 1 inch in diameter and a little shorter than the diameter of your corn tortillas.
  • 3 stir salt, pepper, vinegar and chili powder into cream. if everyone you're serving like heat, add cayenne pepper to taste.
  • 4 melt butter. coat both sides of a tortilla generously, then put a chicken/cheese log in the middle of a tortilla and roll up. lay enchilada in pan (seam side down). repeat for all tortillas and logs.
  • 5 cover enchiladas with cream mixture and slices of gruyere.
  • 6 bake at 375 degrees until lightly browned, about 30 minutes. note that cooking time is only approximate.
  • 7 using evaporated skim milk in place of the cream does not work well. if doubled, add 1 cup milk to cream rather than using 2 cups of cream.
