Super Simple Chicken Enchiladas

Super Simple Chicken Enchiladas



The other night I was looking around the kitchen and the pantry to see what I had available, It had been a while since I went grocery shopping for a full blown put together meal. So.. I came up with this! I guess it would be kind of like a chicken enchilada thing. So.. here is the recipe :D
Super Simple Chicken Enchiladas
Ingredients:
  • 1 pound of chicken (shredded once cooked)
  • 1 packet taco seasoning
  • 4 tortillas
  • 1 bottle hot taco bell sauce (found it at Walmart, but you could probably even just use a bunch of their packets if you wanted to take the time)
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • water (for taco seasoning.. whatever it says on the packet)
Instructions:
  1. Cut up your chicken into cubes and cook in a nonstick skillet. Add the taco seasoning and as much water as the packet says you need. As the chicken is cooking try to separate it as much as you can so you can “shred" it or even just break it up in to smaller pieces. 
  2. Spray a baking pan with nonstick spray. Pour a 1/4 of your taco bell hot sauce on the bottom of a baking pan and spread it around evenly.
  3. Take your tortillas and lay them over the sauce one at a time and spoon in your chicken mixture. Fold over tortilla and fill in another one. My baking pan fit 4 tortillas.. but I was using a weird tinfoil kind of pan that is disposable and it was a little smaller.. so you might be able to fit more.
  4. Once all of your tortillas are filled up and rolled over, pour on the rest of your hot sauce and try to cover as much of the tortillas as you can. Once you are done doing that sprinkle with your cheese. And of course you can use more cheese if you want it more cheese.. I only had a cup.. I might have used more.. I love cheese.
  5. Bake at 350° for 15 minutes. 
ENJOY!

Cheesy & Spicy Grilled Cajun Chicken

This is the recipe for the super yummy cajun chicken that I had with the roasted mashed potatoes. This chicken is nice and spicy, but is toned down a little with the cheese on top. So.. lets get down to business! Makes about 5 servings if each person has 2 pieces of chicken (yes yes I know in the picture there are 4 pieces on the plate.. I didn't finish it all because I was stuffed like a turkey) Ingredients: 10 thawed out chicken tenderloins 1 Tbsp olive oil 2 Tbsp Cajun seasoning 1 tsp sea salt 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese Instructions: Take your thawed out chicken and place it in a bowl. Add your olive oil, Cajun seasoning, and salt to the bowl and toss/mix (whateva) until the chicken is nicely coated with the seasonings. Now cook on the grill...
