Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Shred chicken, if you haven’t already.
- To reheat refrigerated leftover Rotisserie chicken, add shredded chicken and 1 tablespoon of water to a pan. Cover and heat over medium heat until heated through.
- Click here for instructions on how to make the sour cream enchilada sauce (makes 2 ½ cups, which is about what you’ll need).Heat your tortillas in a pan before dipping them into the sour cream sauce. Heat tortillas over medium-high heat, for 5-7 seconds per side each. You want them to be completely pliable.
- Coat the bottom of an 11x7 baking dish with the enchilada sauce, using around ½ cup or so of the sauce. Dip a warmed tortilla into the sour cream enchilada sauce, coating one side completely.
- Lay down on a cutting board, dipped tortilla side up. Divide cooked chicken evenly between 7-8 tortillas; add 1 ½ tablespoons pepperjack cheese to each tortilla.
- Roll enchiladas and place seam-side down in an 11x7 baking dish. Continue to do this until your pan is full.
- Pour all of the remaining sour cream enchilada sauce over your rolled tortillas. Sprinkle with remaining pepperjack cheese.
- Cover the pan with aluminum foil or a lid and bake for 20 minutes, until heated through.
- Remove the cover and broil for 6-7 minutes, until the cheese starts to get toasty and bubbly looking.
- Let sit for a couple minutes to cool slightly if you can and then dig in!
