Chicken Enchilada Bowls
Categories: What's For Supper?

The bowls are flour tortillas baked into bowls with tortilla bowl pans.  The six inch size I got them from my mom’s Avon website..Pans.

Instead of the bowls, this recipe could also be a layered dish, or wrapped enchiladas and top with cheese, or leave the chicken separate and wrap the chicken and use rest as sauce and top with cheese.

  • 3-4 lg chicken breast, cooked and cut/diced small
  • 1-2 cans of cream o chicken soup(use enough so to be creamy)
  • 1/2 c. sour cream
  • 1 can diced tomatoes OR 1 can diced tom. & green chilis OR 1 c. salsa
  • 2 tsp. chili powder
  • 3 green onions, diced
  • 2 tomatillos, diced
  • 1 tbsp. minced garlic
  • 6-8 six inch tortillas
  • 3 cilantro cubes or 6 tsp. fresh chopped
  • 3 c. shredded cheese, want a half cup per bowl
  • 3 roma tomatoes, diced
  • *1 lg can green chilis,optional if not using diced toms with chilies
  • *1 tbsp. paprika to season chicken while cooking, optional for extra spice

Bake tortillas on 350 for 6-8 minutes.  Bake till the edges start to turn brown, don’t under-cook them or when you fill they will flatten out, they won’t be stiff enough.  Set aside and cool completely on a cookie sheet.  Leave on cookie sheet so to bake once filled.

I bowled my chicken breast until almost done to thaw and to cook.  I then drained and diced and returned to the pot I boiled it in.  Finish cooking and dice even smaller with stirring tool. (if chicken is thawed then just dice and cook till done) add optional paprika to chicken while cooking dry, not while boiling.

While chicken is cooking, in a skillet, saute the tomatillos,green onions, and garlic.  When softened and slightly browned, add to completely cooked chicken after soup.

When chicken is done, add chili powder, soup, sour cream, tomatoes of choice, tomatillo mixture, cilantro.  Stir together and let bring to a bubble, simmer for 10 – 15 minutes.  Once simmered, spoon or ladle chicken into the bowls, top with a 1/2 cup cheese.

Return filled bowls to oven at 300 degrees for up to 6 minutes to melt cheese.

Remove and top with fresh diced tomatoes and additional sour cream if desired, can also add fresh diced green onions.eBags, Inc.
