Method
 

Cooking Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Gather your baking dish, mixing bowl, and ingredients.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine shredded chicken, green chiles, and half of the pepper jack cheese. Stir until well incorporated.
  3. Pour a layer of the creamy green enchilada sauce into the bottom of your baking dish.
  4. Warm the tortillas briefly in a skillet or microwave. Place a generous amount of the chicken mixture in each tortilla, roll tightly, and place seam-side down.
  5. Pour the remaining creamy green enchilada sauce over the filled tortillas. Ensure they are fully coated.
  6. Sprinkle the remaining pepper jack cheese evenly on top. Bake for 25-30 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and slightly golden.
  7. Remove from oven and let cool for a few minutes. Serve warm.
