Chicken Verde Enchiladas - The chicken is tender and juicy, the salsa verde adds so much bright flavor, and oodles of melted cheese is the best part for me. Roll a few tablespoons of shredded chicken into each tortilla with a teaspoon or so of salsa verde and place it seam-side down in the pan, nestling each one against the last. These Salsa Verde Chicken Enchiladas are made with a creamy and delicious filling, and smothered with cheese. They will kick any Mexican food craving!

It should be the texture of chicken salad. Thank you and good luck
