Ingredients

Enchiladas

  • 12 corn tortillas
  • 1 rotisserie chicken
  • 1 ½ cups cheddar cheese shredded
  • 1 large zucchini sliced
  • 2 ears corn kernels cut off
  • salt & pepper
  • cilantro & lime for garnish

Salsa Verde

  • 16 ounces salsa verde
  • 1 cup cilantro packed
  • ½ cup Greek yogurt
  • cup chicken broth or vegetable broth
  • ½ teaspoon cumin

Instructions

  • Add all the sauce ingredients to a blender, and process until smooth. Set aside.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Spread about half of the enchilada sauce across the bottom of a 9 x 13 casserole dish.
  • One at a time, dip the tortillas into the enchilada sauce to fully coat, and then fill with chicken, cheese, and a spoonful of additional sauce. Roll and repeat with the rest of the tortillas.
  • Top the enchiladas with the remaining sauce and cheese, and cover with foil.
  • Bake for 25 minutes, uncover, and bake for another 5 minutes, or until sauce is bubbling and the cheese begins to brown.
  • While the enchiladas are baking, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil to a frying pan over medium-high heat. Saute zucchini and corn, and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Garnish enchiladas with extra cilantro and avocado, as desired.
