Step-by-Step Instructions for Pioneer Chicken Enchiladas
- Char the corn tortillas over medium heat until bubbly and slightly browned for about 30 seconds per side.
- Season boneless skinless chicken breasts with cumin and chili powder, then heat vegetable oil in a skillet and cook the chicken for 4-5 minutes per side until golden and cooked through.
- Sauté diced onions in the same skillet over medium heat until golden, then mix in the green enchilada sauce to warm gently.
- In a baking dish, pour 2 cups of the warm sauce mixture at the bottom. Dip each charred tortilla in the remaining sauce, fill with chicken, cheese, and onions, then roll tightly.
- Top the enchiladas with any leftover sauce and a layer of grated cheese. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for about 30 minutes until bubbly.
- Remove from oven and let rest for 15 minutes before serving with sour cream, diced tomatoes, and cilantro.
