Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Prepare pan by lightly spraying with cooking oil. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, mix together shredded chicken, 1 1/2 cups of the cheese, salsa, green chilies, and salt.
  • Spread one large heaping spoonful of the chicken mixture onto the end of a taco shell. Roll up the taco shell, and place it seam down into the prepared pan. Repeat for the remaining shells.
  • In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the flour and whisk constantly for one minute. Add the chicken broth and continue to whisk until smooth. Stir in the sour cream and remove from heat.
  • Pour the sauce evenly over the enchiladas, completely coating in between each enchilada and down the sides. Top with the reserved 1/2 cup of cheese.
  • Bake for 20 – 23 minutes. Turn the broiler onto high and broil for 2 – 3 minutes, until the cheese is slightly browned and completely melted.
  • Remove from the oven and serve warm.
