- Choice number 1: a good Mexican enchilada usually is prepped by heating oil in a skillet, dipping each tortilla one by one in your enchilada sauce and AFTER, heating it in your heated vegetable oil and removing from heat once cooked; adding your shredded chicken, rolling and topping it off with the lettuce, tomato, cucumber, Queso Fresco and sour cream. HOWEVER KERP IN MIND THIS IS VERY MESSY BUT SO GOOD! Your oil will splatter everywhere because of the chile sauce on your tortilla!! ⚠️⚠️⚠️
- Choice Number 2: heat up your oil in a skillet, dip raw tortilla WITHOUT the sauce, cook softly throughly and dip your cooked tortilla into heated enchilada sauce after (this avoids the splatter, but it's not the "Mexican way" to make them lol. They're still very very good!!
- Which ever way you choose to make them, stuff with your shredded chicken, roll, and top with your veggies, sour cream, and queso 👌🏼
- TIP: I heat up all my tortillas in the oil, and dip into sauce after to avoid the splatter, place my wet and cooked tortillas on a plate, pile about 8 and then stop and roll them instead of making one tortilla and rolling. It's faster and less messy this way!
- Serve Hot and Enjoy
