Kraft Kitchens Tips

Serving Suggestion

Serve with a mixed green salad and your favorite fresh fruit to round out the meal.

Shortcut

Substitute 2 pkg. (6 oz. each) OSCAR MAYER Deli Fresh Oven Roasted Chicken Breast Cuts for the chopped cooked fresh chicken. Or, use 2 pkg. (6 oz. each) OSCAR MAYER Southwestern Seasoned or Grilled Chicken Breast Strips, cut into bite-sized pieces.

Note

Tortillas can be warmed before use for easier handling. Just stack tortillas, then wrap in foil. Bake at 350ºF for 10 to 15 min. or just until warmed. Or, wrap tortillas loosely in wax paper and microwave on HIGH 1 min. or just until warmed.

This recipe is super easy and was a big hit with my family. I have two boys that ar very picky eaters and they gobbled this up. I will definitely be making this dish weekly:)

My Husband and daughter loved this recipe. It quickly replaced the old Chicken Enchilada recipe I used to use.

If I made this one again, I would definitely use enchilada sauce instead of salsa for sure. If you're looking for Mexican food, this is not what I would recommend.

Great simple recipe, but I did use enchilada sauce instead of salsa, then topped it with salsa when it was finished, along with lettuce and black olives. A great dish overall.

OMG, this is now a go-to recipe for us! So good and so easy to make! Changes I made: I added a pack of taco season to the cheese mixture, only used 10 tortillas instead of 12 and used a can of enchilada sauce on top instead of salsa and it was PERFECT! Next time, I will leave out the cilantro; just not a fan of the taste. Can't wait to make it again!

This is a delicious recipe and super easy. My whole family loves it--we substitute enchilada sauce for the salsa and I usually add a bit more cheese to satisfy my family's liking. I use canned chicken that has been well drained as well to save time--pre-cooked grilled chicken strips are great time although canned chicken is less expensive. Overall a great recipe & a keeper!

Yummy! I left out the salsa on top the 2nd time I made them, because it makes them a little soggy... and just added it as we ate them.
