Okay amigos, let me spill the tea on this absolutely incredible Mexican recipe that’s been passed down through generations (and might have been slightly tweaked by yours truly after a few margaritas… kidding! Sort of 😉).
Let’s talk about Enchiladas Suizas – but not just any regular enchiladas. These are the kind that’ll make your taste buds dance salsa and your family beg for seconds. Trust me, I’ve made these bad boys for countless dinner parties, and they’re always a showstopper!
First things first, let’s gather our ingredients (because running to the store mid-recipe is SO not cute):
– 12 corn tortillas
– 2 cups shredded chicken (rotisserie chicken works like a charm!)
– 2 cups tomatillo salsa (homemade if you’re feeling fancy)
– 1 cup Mexican crema (or sour cream if you’re in a pinch)
– 2 cups Oaxaca cheese (or Monterey Jack)
– 1 white onion, diced
– Fresh cilantro
– Salt and pepper to taste

Now, let’s get cooking (and yes, you can totally sip on a mocktail while doing this):
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Don’t skip this step – I learned that the hard way! 🙈
1. Mix your tomatillo salsa with the crema in a blender until smooth. This sauce is literally everything!
1. Warm those tortillas slightly so they’re pliable. Pro tip: wrap them in a damp paper towel and microwave for 30 seconds. Works like a charm!
1. Fill each tortilla with shredded chicken and a sprinkle of cheese (be generous, life’s too short for skimpy cheese portions).
1. Roll them up like little burritos and place them seam-side down in a baking dish.
1. Pour that heavenly sauce all over them and top with remaining cheese. Don’t be shy – we’re going for gold here!
1. Bake for 20-25 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and slightly golden.
Garnish with diced onion, cilantro, and maybe an extra drizzle of crema if you’re feeling extra (which I always am!).
Listen, honey, these enchiladas are basically a warm hug on a plate. They’re creamy, slightly tangy, and absolutely perfect for any occasion – whether you’re hosting a dinner party or just treating yourself to some self-care Mexican food (which is totally a thing, don’t @ me).
