I like chicken enchiladas and I like super easy recipes so really how could I go wrong with these? Apparently it can go wrong in more ways than one. I guess I should have known even to look at the recipe that it probably would not be the best tasting dish but it can be kind of hard some days trying to keep up with new meal ideas that will appeal to a toddler and adults alike, so I gave it a try anyway. It wasn’t that bad but then again it wasn’t that good either.

INGREDIENTS

• 1 Tbsp. oil
• 1 lb. /500 g boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-size pieces
• 1-1/3 cups 25%-less-sodium chicken broth
• 1/4 cup KRAFT RANCHER’S CHOICE Dressing
• 2 Tbsp. flour
• 6 small flour tortillas (6 inch), cut into small pieces
• 1 cup KRAFT Tex Mex Shredded Cheese
• 1/2 cup salsa

DIRECTIONS

• Heat oil in large deep skillet on medium-high heat. Add chicken; cook 7 min. or until cooked through, stirring occasionally.
• Mix broth, dressing and flour until well blended; gradually add to skillet, stirring constantly. Add tortillas; stir to combine. Bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium-low; simmer 3 min.
• Sprinkle with cheese; cover. Simmer 3 to 5 min. or until cheese is melted. Top with salsa.

Recipe Alterations

Two small adjustments were made to this recipe but I doubt either of them affected it in anyway:

1. Only had ten inch tortillas so only used 4 of them
2. Used cheddar cheese instead of tex mex as that is what was in the fridge

Family Taste Test

Nobody really liked this at all. I was probably the one who liked it most and that is not saying much. My husband found the tortillas to be much too soggy. I know that in a chicken enchilada recipe the tortillas end up being a bit soggy anyway because they are covered in sauce but these were much worse all the pieces of the tortilla end up all clumped together and mushy. Not so good.

My Thoughts

No plans to make this one again even with any adjustments. They had the basic flavor of chicken enchiladas but the texture was just too gross. I even gave them a second chance as leftovers for lunch the following day. Not a good idea at all. They were even worse the next day. Simple, quick recipe but not one I would recommend to anyone.
