Chicken & Green Chile Enchiladas

Holy Buckets. These pretty little enchiladas you're lookin' at above are out of this world amazing. So amazing that I could have probably eaten that whole pan.

I've never made a white enchilada before. I usually make the traditional kind with the red sauce. And those are great. But who knew its cousin was so smashingly delicious? Light and flavorful. Best of all - they are simple, simple, simple.

I can't write enough greatness about these so I'm going to get right to the recipe.

You must go make them as soon as humanly possible.
