These enchiladas freeze beautifully and are fast to make. I like cooking the chicken breasts in my Instant Pot, although a rotisserie chicken can be used for even faster recipe prep.
Ingredients
- 3 large skinless , boneless chicken breast halves
- 0.5 cups water
- 1 medium onion , chopped
- 1 can diced green chiles , 4 ounce
- 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese

Release pressure carefully using the quick-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid. Drain off water. Shred chicken using 2 forks. Mix in green chiles.

Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in flour and cook for 1 minute. Add water, chicken stock concentrate, and cumin; whisk until smooth. Cook over medium heat until thick and bubbly, about 5 minutes. Stir in Greek yogurt, pepper Jack cheese, and Monterey Jack cheese. Do not boil, as yogurt may curdle.

Bourbon Fried Apples
These bourbon fried apples are a slightly healthier spin on the usual fried apples. The skin is left on, and the reduced butter and sugar are offset with flavor-boosting bourbon, raisins, cinnamon, and lemon juice. I use Cameo apples for this recipe, as they are naturally sweet and hold their shape well, but if you're using a tarter variety, you may wish to increase the brown sugar and omit the lemon juice. Golden rum can substitute for bourbon.
