Creamy Chicken Enchiladas – Sour Cream Chicken Enchilada Recipes
These creamy chicken enchiladas were a huge hit for dinner, and super easy to make. I have made these several times over the years, and probably change it up a little bit every time. Since we worked with Minute® Ready to Serve Rice on this post, we decided to include on of their Minute Ready to Serve Rice products in our Spanish Rice.
It was so good I could have eaten it all on its own.
Money Savings Tip:
Planning more than one chicken meal this week? Prepare a whole chicken and divide the chicken into two meals. I found whole chicken at our local grocery store on sale for less than $1.00/pound, so it ended up being way cheaper than a canned or skinless chicken breast option.
Time Savings Tip:
I love using Minute® Ready to Serve Rice Whole Grain Brown Rice, as well as their white rice. It is so good and such an easy way to add rice to a meal like our Creamy Chicken Enchiladas.
Think about Minute® Ready to Serve Rice as the perfect portable solution for lunch or breakfast and desk-time lunches. 60 seconds in the microwave and rice is cooked up and ready to go. And let me just say–having a quick lunch option is exactly what I need when I’m trying to have a productive day at the office in between school drop off and school pick up. The joys of working from home.
And–it’s available in many varieties: Brown & Quinoa and Basmati Rice, Whole Grain options of Brown Rice, Brown & Wild Rice and Multi-Grain Medley. Also, there’s Jasmine Rice, White Rice and flavorful mixes.
Score!
Bonus- simmering Homemade Chicken Stock in a stock pot on the stove for a few hours and getting to use it in the rice that accompanied our enchiladas and for tomorrow’s Taco Soup.
