It's hard to pick what we love more about these enchiladas. Maybe it's the tender, shredded chicken seasoned with a zesty blend of spices. Or maybe it's the way the gooey cheddar cheese enrobes the baked flour tortillas slathered with sauce. Luckily you don't have to pick favorites, because you get to savor it all with these flavorful, cheesy enchiladas.
