My loving wife cooks me these after I've been at work 12hrs! 25yrs married this year and every day is like the first. Great vid

[@cwaydeeznutz]

Finally a simple easy way to make it. Perfect for this broke college student.

[@8darkknight472]

The actual ingredients to make the green salsa are cheaper.

[@iggypopisgod9]

pro tip: rotisserie chicken

[@iggypopisgod9]

@@8darkknight472 stop it

[@nitamarie4534]

Throw some cream cheese for a $1 on the inside lol n taco bell hot sauce😂

[@Sunny-il1xm]

My family has been using las palmas for decades, both red and green. I just combine more chilies that I keep frozen and add spices, and I also freeze these sauces and just use them for chile con carne, easy stove top enchiladas. You can save a lot of time and work by just keeping onions chopped, cheese shredded, chicken already cooked ahead of time and frozen and sauces premade. But thanks for sharing these tips, , Palmas saves a lot of time during prep for delicious Mexican dishes.

[@ashleypeacock748]

That is the BEST way to shred chicken!!!

[@ScrunchyAZMom]

It is!!!

[@Familymademealsnow]

Nice

[@vgil1278]

Ashley Peacock but messy-I saw a lot flying thru the air. If you have a dog, just let them in the kitchen to vacuum the floor!

[@5TRETCH33]

I ain't shredding chicken by hand no more. Making this tonight.

[@f.acostaa9429]

I use to make my own green sauce till my friend introduced me to this can of las Palmas.. I put mine in the blender with half of a small tomato, 1garlic c, slice of onion, and add a bunch of cilantro...blend and pour over the enchiladas!( then cheese & oven of course)

[@grod805]

Homemade is still better

[@ScrunchyAZMom]

Of course. But it’s okay to have help sometimes on a busy weeknight.

[@janetwilkinson1216]

grod805 Did you spend even half a minute actually watching the video? This is not about replacing homemade. This is about making a very good meal when you actually have a busy life.

[@ic6303]

I used the items you mentioned in your comment to add to the sauce and it was delicious. My family loved it. Thanks for this tip!

[@SpecialKaye]

Thanks!!

[@ladyk2462]

Hi Erica. You did an AWESOME job on this video. It was enjoyable to watch, the chicken enchiladas we're easy to make, the instructions weren't complicated and it was quick. The outcome of the enchiladas looked delicious. This is an EXCELLENT video on how to make chicken enchiladas. Here's a suggestion for anyone who doesn't have a hand held mixer. You can temporarily use a potato masher or fork while the chicken is still hot. Use either one of those items until you get a hand held mixer. EVERYONE TRY and be safe. Stay healthy the best way that YOU can. Have a great day.

[@mtkk22]

Omg you took the mystery and difficulty out of making enchiladas. For the sauce, I blended 1 can of organic red enchilada sauce with with one can tomato sauce. It turned out delicious 😋.

[@ashleighjaimaosborne3966]

I tried your recipe. Added 3 small avocados, 2/3 c sour cream and some cilantro to canned sauce and blended. It was excellent. I also tried this hand mixer and chicken, great shredding but I had chicken bits all over. So next time perhaps I will put it into a deep bowl! 😊🇨🇦

[@ScrunchyAZMom]

I’m so happy you liked it!! That sounds super yummy! And yes, always a deep bowl! You can even throw a kitchen towel over the bowl while you’re doing it to avoid anything flying out!

[@plantbasedcarti]

I’ve been going back to this video for years because the people closest to me love it so much. ✨

[@ScrunchyAZMom]

That makes me incredibly happy! Thank you for sharing and I’m so happy you love it!

[@dinomorell5163]

Its mandatory to add cheese inside each enchilada as well as on top! But to each his own i suppose.

[@castrodon8742]

Shredding the chicken with a mixer really works, thanks for the tip!!!!

[@zzzz-ok7733]

Quick, simple, & easy, now your talking my language! This will be my first time making enchiladas. Thank you for the recipe!

[@ScrunchyAZMom]

Yes!! Perfect for a busy weeknight!!

[@KS-op5hb]

If anyone wants to save a few calories you can just hear the tortilla vs fry before use and low carb tortillas hold up well in this recipe ! I also add sautéed veggie Just another take on a solid recipe :)

[@reneinzunza988]

My family has been making it like this too for years. Excepts after we fry them in oil we have the green sauce in a pot on low heat and put them in there right after, Take it out put the chicken in and roll it up. Top with cheese (shredded Monterey Jack) then oven. Top with lettuce sour cream and tapatio

[@chelsiemarroquin4177]

This helped me feed my kids tonight! Thank you!!!!

[@leonrigz5185]

Holy moly !!!now I'm hungry!!! My brother just brought some leftover green enchiladas. They were bombaf!!! And I thought to myself let me see a video on this. And once I saw that " las palms🌴🤣" I was sold. Your recipe looks incredible!!!! That !!! To me is pretty dang Authentic!!!! Thanks for sharing with us. Will definitely try this next weekend!!! Bless u and your family. ☺😊

[@ScrunchyAZMom]

Thank you!! I hope you enjoy!! 😊😊

[@pmmrfan9892]

A hand mixer to shred chicken??? Who knew!😃💚

[@HippiieLoveOfficial]

I usually like making them like this as well or use the Red salsa as well . I also Like Adding Potatoes with Mozzarella cheese 😋😋✌🏼

[@katereitzel]

Thank you for the blender trick, so helpful and efficient! Making the enchiladas tonight. :-) UPDATE: They were amazing! Appreciate the tutorial!

[@pokey5428]

Loved this recipe. The using the hand mixer to shred the chicken was the bomb. Man did that make things easier, and the chicken was perfectly shredded. The only thing I might do differently next time is to add some flavor and moisture to the chicken filling, like maybe some onion, or green chilis, or cheese. I'm also in need of a recipe for homemade green chili enchilada sauce--the Los Palmas was okay, but I'd like a bit more flavor. Thanks you for posting.

[@carolincaballero1980]

Thank you for sharing!! All videos I’ve watched were too complicated (and added way more than needed for my opinion) . Your video was nice, quick, short and easy to follow! I have subbed 😊

[@aaronbounds1336]

Great to shred the chicken in a kitchen aid mixer too.

[@10byrdie]

Made this tonight but I used rotisserie chicken and added a lil sour cream to keep it moist. The Pepperjack set it off. Thank you.

[@ScrunchyAZMom]

So glad you enjoyed it!!

[@ampvaile6150]

Perfect canvas for whatever else you want to add.

[@judyl.761]

Delicious! I did what you said but used flour tortillas and red enchilada sauce. Sooooo goood. Thanks!

Muchísimas gracias por compartir tu receta 🌻

[@westgame8545]

i make these and sometimes add black beans , chopped cabbage or fried potatoes 🔥

[@gregormiller4037]

Great post. I started putting the canned green sauce in the blender, and add some sour cream and maybe green chilies from the can. And of course cheez on top:)_

[@arianabasurto4281]

Walmart has frozen hatch green Chile which I highly recommend

[@ScrunchyAZMom]

I do make a reeeally good sour cream green Chile sauce from scratch but it’s so time consuming and on busy nights I just want a cheat lol

[@lincolnhtschick]

GURRRRRL … looks really good! Excellent use of the word “malleable” 👍🏽🇲🇽

[@live_the_lifeyoulove]

I could so have this for dinner right now! Yum!!

[@ryancordova6892]

My family has always done it a bottom layer of the tortillas the chicken some sauce and then more tortillas sauce and cheese either way it's going to taste the same and really doesn't matter how it looks just a tip because of rolling them up seems like itll take longer than the way my great grandma grandma and mom do it either way looks delicious great job I was just looking for a quick video to show my grandma what type of sauce to get because of she always makes homemade red sauce but imo the green sauce is better

[@mended-christianmusic498]

I used a Costco rotisserie chicken. Even faster recipe! Thanks for sharing! 👍🏻

[@josher0311]

You gotta do more cooking videos. This one was great!!!

[@lumenz1382]

That's shreading hack is a great idea but if you have one of those KitchenAid mixers it's even easier

Great Job Erica!! To me that's pretty authentic, regardless what the haters say. LOL

I love that dress on you😍 I cant believe I haven't shredded chicken like that before. 🤯 Not that I cook all that much lol but I do make enchiladas.

[@ScrunchyAZMom]

Lol it does make it so so much easier! Just make sure it’s still hot cause it gets harder when it cools down

[@davidsparrow1813]

I made this last night. It was delicious and really easy. This is the first time I have used corn tortilla. Yum! Next time I might add some jalapenos for a little heat. Thank you for the recipe.

[@ScrunchyAZMom]

That’s awesome! I’m glad you like it! I’m sue corn tortillas for all the different versions of enchiladas I make!

[@havecourageandbekind9605]

I add a ton of finely diced jalapeños, onion powder, garlic and black beans inside the enchilada…Yum!

[@havecourageandbekind9605]

I add jalapeños to mine. Delish

Thanks for this recipe easy to make 😍😍😍😍

[@adamgrimaldi7624]

I wish I could share a photo. They came out so good recipe was so good. The only thing I did different was I boiled my chicken, then put it in a strainer. I put the chicken back in a large pot with new water just a little bit to rehydrate the chicken breast. I put a little bit of olive oil in the water mixture and put one packet of taco seasoning. I let the chicken simmer period and then I strained it again. Now my chicken meat had seasoning in it.

[@ScrunchyAZMom]

Nice!! That sounds super good! So glad you enjoyed it!

[@mattmilford8106]

My complaint with these type of dishes at restaurants is that they are chock full of dry, bland chicken. No matter what's on the outside of the tortilla, eating what's on the inside becomes a chore. At home, I add a can of green chilis and some cream cheese to the chicken before rolling.

So u don’t use any of the extra things u boil the chicken with? And no seasoning or did I miss that ?

[@ScrunchyAZMom]

No I don’t use the extra things I boiled the chicken with. I suppose you could save them to make stock with later though. As far as seasoning the chicken I always season with salt, pepper, garlic powder and onion powder typically.
