Servings: persons

2 cups shredded rotisserie-cooked chicken
olive oil or butter
12 medium onion, chopped
1 -2 garlic clove, minced
3 ounces light cream cheese
salt and pepper
10 -12 corn tortillas
1 cup light sour cream
1 (10 3/4 ounce) can 98% fat-free cream of chicken soup
1 (4 ounce) can green chilies
¼ cup milk
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 cup monterey jack pepper cheese (I sometimes use half sharp cheddar for color)

1
Saute the onion and garlic in a little butter over medium heat until onion is opaque, about 3 minutes.
2
Let cool and shred chicken (if using rotisserie).
3
Mix chicken, onions and garlic, cream cheese, and salt and pepper (to taste) in medium bowl.
4
Fill corn tortillas with chicken mixture and place seam side down in rectangular pan ( I use one that is a little smaller than 9x13).
5
In another bowl, mix together sour cream, cream of chicken, green chilies, milk, ground cumin, and a little more salt and pepper.
6
(1/2 cup of milk can be used here if you want the sauce to be a little runny).
7
Pour sour cream mixture over the enchiladas and bake covered with tin foil at 375F for 30-40 minutes.
8
Remove enchiladas from oven and cover with cheese.
9
Broil on high for about 5 minutes until the cheese is golden brown and bubbly (keep an eye on the broiler to avoid burning).
