Oh. My. Goodness. Ladies and gentlemen, get ready to have your taste buds do the salsa dance because I’m about to share my absolute favorite Mexican dinner recipe that’ll make your family think you secretly graduated from culinary school! Trust me, this Chicken Enchiladas Suizas is not your average Taco Tuesday meal – it’s what I like to call my “mother-in-law impresser” (and yes, it totally worked! 😉).
Let me tell you, I’ve tested this recipe countless times, and every single time, my guests practically lick their plates clean. The secret? A heavenly combination of tomatillos, cream, and perfectly seasoned chicken that’ll make your kitchen smell like a high-end Mexican restaurant.
What You’ll Need (because being prepared is sexy):
– 6 large chicken breasts
– 12 tomatillos
– 2 jalapeños (or more if you’re feeling spicy like me!)
– 1 white onion
– 4 garlic cloves
– 12 corn tortillas
– 2 cups Mexican crema
– 2 cups Monterey Jack cheese
– Fresh cilantro
– Salt and pepper to taste
Now, honey, let’s get cooking!
First things first, poach those chicken breasts in seasoned water until they’re cooked through (about 20 minutes). While that’s happening, remove the husks from your tomatillos and give them a good wash – they’re sticky little devils!
(Quick pause! If you’re loving this recipe so far, make sure to follow me on Newsbreak for more mouthwatering recipes that’ll make your family worship the ground you walk on! 😘)
Now, roast those tomatillos, jalapeños, onion, and garlic under the broiler until they’re charred and soft. Trust me, those black spots are flavor gold! Blend everything together with some cilantro until smooth.
Shred that chicken like you’re shredding your ex’s photos (kidding… mostly), and mix it with some of that gorgeous green sauce.
Here’s where the magic happens: Dip each tortilla in the warm sauce, fill with chicken, roll them up, and place them in a baking dish. Pour the remaining sauce over top, drizzle with that luxurious Mexican crema, and sprinkle with cheese like it’s confetti at a party!
Bake at 375°F for 20-25 minutes until everything’s bubbly and golden brown. Garnish with extra cilantro, and maybe a little crema if you’re feeling extra fancy (which you should be!).
Y’all, when you pull this out of the oven, the cheese will be doing that stretchy thing that makes everyone go crazy, and the aroma… _chef’s kiss_
And there you have it! A dinner that’ll have everyone begging for seconds and asking for the recipe.
