Easy Does It Hidden Veg Chicken Enchiladas

Serves 3

Easy Does It Hidden Veg Enchiladas

Ingredients

  • 1 onion, diced
  • 3 cloves of garlic crushed
  • 1 carrot, diced
  • 1 red capsicum, diced
  • 1 chicken breast, chopped
  • 1tsps each of cumin, oregano & smoked paprika
  • 2tsp chipotles in adobo sauce – optional
  • 1 can of chopped tomatoes
  • 1 small can of corn, drained & rinsed
  • 12 mini tortillas – I use corn over flour
  • Grated cheese

Method

Start by getting all your veg chopped and ready to go then heat a large pan/skillet and drizzle generously with olive oil before adding the onion, garlic, carrot and capsicum. Reduce the heat to low and saute for 5-10 minutes. In this time, I got my chicken ready.

Now add your chicken and spices and turn the heat back up. Brown off the chicken, stirring as you go then add the chipotles if using and the can of tomatoes. Fill up the can with water and add to the mix along with the corn. Bring to the boil then leave to cook away for 10 minutes. If you have it, sprinkle with garlic salt otherwise just normal salt.

While that’s on, turn your oven on to 180. Once the liquid has reduced from the pan, using two forks, pull apart the chicken breast until its shredded throughout the mixture then leave to cool slightly. Put your oven proof dish beside the pan and start to microwave the tortillas for 10 seconds ust to soften them then in the oven dish, spoon the chicken mixture into the centre of each tortilla then liune them up in the tray until full. Leave a bit of mixture aside to spread out over the top of the rolled tortillas then sprinkle with the grated cheese. Bake until golden and brown!

Hey there

This is a collection of tastes from my tables abroad… wherever that may be. I spend my days professionally food writing my nights recipe developing flavours from my adventures.

I am at my happiest when sharing food with my favourite people. I care deeply about nourishing our bodies with goodness. I don’t believe in dieting, I don’t believe in fads, I believe in feeding your body simply with home made deliciousness.
