Description

Quick Healthy Chicken Enchiladas are a scrumptious and satisfying meal that packs a nutritional punch with protein-packed chicken, creamy Greek yogurt, and flavorful taco seasoning.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 cup shredded cooked chicken
  • 1/2 cup refried beans
  • 3/4 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon taco seasoning
  • 1 1/2 cup shredded Mexican cheese
  • 10 ounce red enchilada sauce
  • 8 flour tortillas (8-inch)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F and spray a 9×13-inch baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, refried beans, and taco seasoning. Stir well until smooth and thoroughly blended.
  3. Fold in the shredded chicken along with 1/2 cup of shredded Mexican cheese. Mix until everything is uniformly incorporated.
  4. Take about 1/3 cup of the chicken mixture and scoop it onto each tortilla, placing it near one edge. Roll them up tightly.
  5. Once filled, place each rolled tortilla seam-side down in the prepared baking dish.
  6. Pour about 3/4 of the can of enchilada sauce over the rolled tortillas, ensuring they are all covered. Top with the remaining 1 cup of shredded cheese.
  7. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbling.
  8. Enjoy your Quick Healthy Chicken Enchiladas hot out of the oven or store for meal prep lunches.

Notes

To store leftovers, place enchiladas in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to three days. Assembled but unbaked enchiladas can also be frozen for up to three months.
