I wanted to make chicken enchiladas but couldn't find a recipe that I had the ingredients for. So, I made this up using what I had on hand. It is mildly spicy. Add more peppers/cayenne or hot sauce to liven it up a bit.

Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons butter , divided
  • 0.25 cups chopped onion
  • 1 jalapeno pepper , seeded and chopped
  • 1 chile pepper , seeded and chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic , chopped
  • 0.5 cups chicken broth
  • 1 skinless , boneless chicken breast half, cubed
  • 0.25 teaspoons chili powder
  • 0.25 teaspoons seasoned salt
  • 0.25 teaspoons ground cumin
  • 0.13 teaspoons cayenne pepper
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons sour cream
  • 0.5 cups shredded pepperjack cheese
  • 2 cups tortilla chips , or to taste
  • 2 tablespoons pico de gallo , Optional

Instructions

  1. 1

    Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a skillet over medium-high heat; saute onion, jalapeno pepper, chile pepper, and garlic until fragrant and lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Add chicken broth, chicken, chili powder, seasoned salt, cumin, and cayenne pepper; cook and stir until chicken is no longer pink in the center about 5 minutes.

  2. 2

    Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a microwave-safe bowl in the microwave, 15 to 20 seconds. Stir flour into melted butter until smooth.

  3. 3

    Mix flour-butter mixture and sour cream into chicken mixture; cook and stir until sauce is thickened, 2 to 4 minutes. Add pepperjack cheese to sauce and stir until melted, 2 to 3 minutes.

  4. 4

    Spread chips onto a serving platter; top with sauce and pico de gallo.
