Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 200℃/180°C(fan)/400℉/Gas 6.
- Heat 1 tablespoon Olive oil a pan and add 300 g Chicken breast, 1 Onion, 1 Green bell pepper and 1 Red bell pepper and cook for 5-8 minutes minutes, stirring often.
- Stir in half the 300 g Enchilada sauce and cook for a further 2 minutes.
- Take 8 Mini flour tortillas, divide the chicken and pepper mix between them and roll up and put in a baking dish.
- Pour the other half of the enchilada sauce over the rolled tortillas and then sprinkle over 80 g Mature cheddar.
- Bake for 20 minutes, until the cheese starts to brown. Sprinkle with Fresh coriander (cilantro) before serving.
Notes
- Cover the pan in foil before putting it in the oven, as this will keep the chicken nice and moist.
- You could serve these easy chicken enchiladas with a big green salad.
- We used cheddar on top of ours, but you could use a mixture of shredded cheeses that melt well.
- Feel free to swap the chicken out for shredded beef, prawns or even just extra vegetables.
- Add some extra greens by stirring in some shredded spinach or kale.
