19 ounces Las Palmas green chile enchilada sauce

HOW TO MAKE GREEN CHILE CHICKEN ENCHILADA
Step 1: Place the chicken, 1 cup cheese, green chiles, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Mix well until combined.
Step 2: Bring the enchilada sauce to a boil in a small skillet, then take off the heat.
Step 3: Into the heated sauce, dip each tortilla for a couple of seconds to soften.
Step 4: Down the middle of each tortilla, spoon about 1/3 cup of the chicken mixture and 2 tbsp sour cream. Then, roll the tortilla and put it in an 8 x 8-inch or 9 x 9-inch baking dish, seam-side down. Do the same with the rest of the tortillas.
Step 5: Over the tortillas, pour the rest of the heated enchiladas and sprinkle with the rest of the 1 cup cheese.
Step 6: Place in 350 degrees preheated oven and bake the enchiladas for about 20 minutes until done.
