New Recipe: Buffalo Chicken Enchiladas

Finished Product

        Happy Tasty Tuesday Everyone, I have a fun and delicious recipe to share with you today! Last week I was really craving Mexican food so I thought I would try my hand at enchiladas, but this isnt any old enchilada recipe, this is enchiladas with a twist! Using buffalo wing sauce added an extra bite to the recipe which was fabulous. For the side dish I suggest making spanish rice (you can buy a box in the supermarket) and some veggies. 

Ingredients:

  • 1 package of tortillas 
  • 1 large rotisserie chicken shredded 
  • 1 cup red enchilada sauce
  • 1/2 cup buffalo wing sauce
  • 1 package of Mexican Blend cheese, shredded
  • 3 oz gorgonzola cheese, crumbled
  • 2 green onions chopped
  • 1/2 cup fresh cilantro, chopped

Directions:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees and spray 9x13 baking dish with non-stick spray (I use PAM)
  • In a bowl combine enchilada sauce and buffalo sauce
  • Pour about 1/3 of the sauce mixture at bottom of the baking dish, coating it.
  • Take another 1/3 of the sauce mixture and combine with shredded chicken (I put them in a plastic baggie and shake it so the sauce coats the chicken).
  • Take each tortilla and fill it with a few tablespoons of chicken mixture, add a sprinkle of cheese then roll each tortilla up and set it in the baking dish, seam side down.
  • Repeat until entire baking dish is filled with chicken/cheese rolled tortillas.
  • Pour the last 1/3 cup of sauce on top of the rolled tortillas and top with cheese.
  • Bake for 25 minutes
  • Immediately after taking enchiladas out of the oven, add crumbled gorgonzola on top. Garnish with green onions and cilantro.
  • ENJOY!
** This was the first time I've ever made this and I really enjoyed it but I think in the future I would add some onions and possibly some peppers into the chicken wrap, for the future**
