GREEN CHILE CHICKEN ENCHILADAS 3 WAYS: flat, rolled & in a casserole

- These green chile chicken enchiladas are so delicious, you'll want to make them all the time. And when you do, you can now prepare them 3 different ways: flat, rolled & in a casserole. It starts with a creamy sauce that you can make with mild green chile or fire hot chile, depending on how you like it. (I like my chile hot enough to let me know that it's there, but not so hot where I can't enjoy it.) If you're feeding kids, go with mild. I like to roast and peel my own chile every year and keep plenty in the freezer. But I didn't do that this past year, so I'm making do with chile from a can. No worries, it's still scrumptious.
It's a little difficult to specify exact amounts of each of the ingredients, because it really depends on how many enchiladas you want to make and how much you love cheese and onion. The sauce is enough for a large dish of rolled enchiladas or a large casserole. Should you only make a few, put the leftovers in the fridge, and heat it up the following morning and pour it over eggs. It's the breakfast of champions! In my home state of New Mexico, it's actually quite common to fry an egg and put it on top of your enchiladas. When the yolk runs over it, there't nothin' like it!
That said, here's a list of ingredients for these Green Chile Chicken Enchiladas. But I'm not going to bother with exact amounts on some of the items.
Corn tortillas (or large bag of tortilla chips)
shredded chicken (typically 3 breasts cooked, or you can grab and shred a rotisserie chicken from the supermarket and save yourself some time.)
1 10-ounce can cream of chicken (plus 1 can water)
1 10-ounce can cream of mushroom (plus 1 can water)
green chile (approx. 1/2 to 3/4 cup)
shredded cheese (go with mild cheddar, colby jack, or muenster)
chopped onion
canola or vegetable oil for frying
Flat, rolled, or in a casserole, you can't go wrong with this recipe. Hope you like it! For more recipes, follow me on Instagram @marcyinspired.
I live in the northwest corner of New Mexico. I love watching how we all do enchiladas a tiny bit differently. All delicious. I will try yours too, mmmmmm. The only bad thing about an enchilada is not having one. 💖
Ha! I'm gonna have to use that last line of yours. It's a good one! Thanks for watching!
I always add 1 can of diced jalapeños to give the sauce an extra kick. Northern New Mexico boy here and I learned how to make my green chili chicken enchilada casserole dish in my Home Ec class in Questa, New Mexico back in 1994.
I use one can of cream of mushroom and one can of cream of chicken and 1 can chicken broth. I use less liquid for a little thicker consistency! Yours look delicious
Thanks! I really could eat enchiladas every day. Red or green. Thanks for taking the time to comment.
@@marcyinspired1442 ha ha agreed! My family Sold the last hatch chile farm in 2020. Chile can be 3 meals day, and chile issues healthy and an anti inflammatory! No chile, like hatch Chile! Look forward to getting some green Chile and makers rellonos!!!
@@bp5439 Absolutely! 3 meals a day!!! So you're family had a chile farm in Hatch!? That is too cool! I grew up south of Las Cruces in the tiny town of La Mesa. It's known for Chope's restaurant which serves the best chile rellenos made with Hatch green chile. You'll have to check out my recipe for rellenos and tell me if you make yours similar to mine. I always love learning from others. czcams.com/video/Tjb31tNGTEs/video.html
So far this is the best recipe for green chile chicken enchilidas casserole that I've seen!!!
Thank you so much, Annette! That makes me so happy.
I agree. When she said southern NM I got excited cuz that’s where I’m from and this is how we make them!!
I agree! When she was done with the “flat” version, I was like- that’s it?! Even I can do that one!! :)
omg the dog's face was so precious!!! love this video, thanks again for sharing your recipes and techniques
That's my Miley! She thinks it's her channel and manages to work her way into most of my videos. Lol
Just got done watching I love these three ways to make chicken enchiladas. Thank you will make one of these dishes. south carolina here.
Sorry, I'm responding so late. Somehow I missed your comment, but I'm thrilled to know someone in South Carolina saw this video. I was just in Charleston recently and loved it there.
They all look so good! I’m definitely going to try the green chile casserole! 😋
My Mom and I were just talking about green chili chicken enchiladas and here it is. So simple and looks delicious. I have chili in the freezer it's going to be great.
Oh, good. It was meant to be. Thanks for the comment.
I found this channel yesterday and have seen some of your videos. You and your work are a gem. I also read your About page and watched your introduction video, so I understand some of what led you to do this channel and also am glad you ask the Lord to bless the work of your hands. 💝
Thank you so much for taking the time to read my About page and also watch the introduction video. Your comment is so sweet. God has been good to me, so I definitely try not to do life without Him.
Marcy looks great im going to try this thankyou ❤God bless
Your video made me hungry!!! You gave me some good ideas. I once made green chile enchiladas with white corn tortillas and the tortillas got mushy cooking in the oven so I use yellow corn tortillas for this dish now. My sister-in-law dots the enchiladas with small pieces of Valvetta cheese before placing it in the oven and it comes out really creamy and cheesy. Thanks for the new ideas. God bless you.....
Thanks for watching. You definitely can mix it up a number of ways, and I love it all!
I’m already planning to try all three. They look wonderful!
Wow great way to make green chile sauce, thanks for the tips !!!
Thank YOU for watching!
OH, the little doggie is watching and ready to eat! What a darling doggie ♥ Great job on the cooking!
My dog loves Mexican food. Lol Thanks for your sweet comment.
That’s just like I make them! So good. I love your bakeware.
Thank you! I love it, too, but it's really heavy.
I'll take them either way! They all look delicious!
Me, too. 😋
Okay I'm sold, I'll subscribe.
Can not wait to make this recipe! Looks easy and delish!!!!
Happy to hear that, Laura. Thanks for taking the time to comment. ☺️
March I really love the videos I’ve been looking for the - Torta de Nuevo my pappy loves them thank you 🙏
Thanks for the kind words. Here's a link to the Torta de Huevo video: czcams.com/video/QutZpedIv-I/video.htmlsi=Ir4la77b9f0q9Eo1
Love the casserole dish.
Thanks you! :)
Making it today!!!
Glad to hear it. Hope you like them as much as I do. 😋
Great recipe, Marcy!! Thank you! My only mistake was blending the liquid ingredients too much so the sauce came out soupy. Still tastes like home!
That's on me. I should have explained you still want to have small pieces of green chile in there so it doesn't take a lot of mixing. Anyway, happy to hear you tried it and liked it.
I also make my green chile chicken enchiladas with the Cream of mushroom and Cream of chicken soups and Hatch green chile's
I add garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, and pepper to my sauce.
I also add chicken broth, milk, and some water. Did you add any spices to your sauce? I am also from New Mexico.
Marcy, these look absolutely yummy!! I can't wait to try the flat enchiladas and the casserole. I love salsa verde but I think the sauce is made with tomatillos, isn't it? The past few years I have been unable to eat anything that even hints at spicy heat. I believe I can eat these enchiladas since the cream soup would make the sauce less spicy. Thank you for sharing all your recipes with us.
I miss green enchiladas since I lived in Las Cruces. The only green is tomatillo sauce in Georgia. Thanks for the recipes.
I feel your pain, Kyle. You don't have green chile, but at least you have green trees in Georgia! Maybe if you think of it that way, it won't feel so bad. Lol. Thanks for subscribing and taking the time to comment.
Yummy, gonna make some this weekend!
I’ve never seen a green Chile chicken enchilada casserole made with tortilla chips before I’m born and raised in abq nm I’m gonna have to try it like that 😊
It's kind of a lazy version, but it totally works. Hope you like it.
@@marcyinspired1442 thanks I’m definitely going to try it this way!
Good recipes. Thanks!
Thanks for checking them out, Tara. I appreciate the encouragement. :)
@@marcyinspired1442 I used your recipe with leftover turkey and it was a hit.
@@tibbytx1 Yum! Happy to hear that.
Thank you
Thank YOU for watching!
They say you shouldn't rinse in water because it takes some of the flavor away I tried that and it worked it was more flavorful
Marcy, I made this today and it is awesome! Thank you so much for sharing fantastic recipes.
I'm so happy you liked it. Thanks so much for taking the time to tell me.
Fabulous.
Thanks
☀️☀️☀️☀️
Wow!!! It looks delicious 😋 and very Easy to follow recipe...thank you very much. I myself will follow your recipe tonight with our family. However, I'll be using the roasted Hatch Green Chile. Thx from Sandia Park, New Mexican.👌
Yay! Another New Mexican! That's so cool. Especially since you'll be using Hatch green chile. I kind of wish I had waited until I had some to shoot this video. I went to Hatch last August and stocked up my freezer after, and I'm already looking forward to this year's crop. Hope you enjoy the enchiladas!
Your puppy is adorable 🥰
Awe. Thank you! She's my sidekick, especially in the kitchen! Lol
I know it’s not authentic but I used to have them prepared similar to a layered lasagna (with corn tortillas though) when I was a kid so like a mixture of your casserole and your flat versions. Loved it. I enjoy them rolled as well though. Cute dog btw omg ☺️
I've made them like that, too. It's all the same deliciousness. And thanks for noticing my beagle. She's my little baby, and quite the helper in the kitchen.
Looks tasty it I don’t have a question where did you get that lovely casserole dish ?? It’s beautiful
Its like a nacho version, cool.. gonna try this with the El Pato brand Green enchilada sauce, maybe add some (505 Roasted Green Chiles) as well
Thanks for this recipe. My mom is milk sensitive and this recipe doesn’t call for sour cream or cream cheese. Thanks again, making this today!
Oh good. I'm glad this will work out for your mom. I hope you love it.
I’m wanting to make this for Christmas Eve for a crowd, do you think these can be made ahead of time and put in fridge? THANK YOU SO MUCH. I hadn’t ever thought of using the soups but I sure am.. They all look delicious and I can’t wait to try it. Thanks again..❤ i love that casserole dish.
Your dog is adorable ❤
I've never seen enchiladas made with soups. Mostly I've seen people use canned enchilada sauce, red or green, or use dried chiles to make the sauce. Of course in the US we make them casserole style. In Mexico, where we lived by Cd Victoria they put queso fresco or shredded meat in the coated tortilla and fold them, like your first ones but folded. I had them once from someone from San Luis Potosí but they were flat, I think I felt like they were tostadas but with a "chile" tortilla, but I don't remember exactly.
So that's my experience with enchiladas. I found the differences here very interesting. There's so many variations in mexican food, even from San Diego to Los Angeles. And then it's constantly changing, it seems to me that Tijuana tacos have changed over the past 20 years.
I love entomatadas made with fresh tomatoes and enfrijoladas, made with blended black beans, too.
Looks yummy
Thanks so much! I appreciate the comment.
I was watching The Office in the background when I noticed your shirt. Hilarious I
If you only knew how many times my husband and I have seen every single episode! It’s pretty much on a constant loop. Lol
@@marcyinspired1442 my wife and I bought the entire box set and have been through it more than twice. Love the earliest stuff best but that’s always the case right. Thanks for taking the time to comment. Love your channel.
Looks so good. Will make it this weekend :)
Hope you like these enchiladas as much as I do! Thanks for checking out my video.
I feel like a hungry dog watching someone eat.
That is too funny. Maybe I should put a disclaimer: “Do Not Watch On An Empty Stomach!” 😂 Thanks for checking out my video.
Good job Miley
Wow love your recipes ❤️
Thank you, Susan. I'm so happy you found my channel.
Did you say your from Hatch NM?
I had family there.
I grew up south of there, in the town of La Mesa. You'll have to check out my video titled, "Why I'm a Chile Snob." It shows Hatch and different parts of New Mexico.
New Mexican here live 25 min away from Hatch! Love the green and red chili here specially in the enchiladas! Nice vid!
You're fortunate to live that close to the best chile in the world. Thanks for checking out my video & taking the time to comment.
Made in true NM style. I too use the cream of chicken soup as my base. I do not like mushrooms.
Thanks! I just shot another enchilada video, using fresh Hatch chile this time. In fact, I made both red and green enchiladas. You'll have to watch for it on Saturday and let me know what you think. I appreciate the comment.
Well YUM is all I can say! ❤
I would look into what Canola oil is made of and how bad it is for you. I stopped using it a couple of years ago and now use Avocado oil as it is flavorless and goes with everything.
4:41 - Mission (grocery store) tortilla chips? I'm curious why you don't use a "local" NM restaurant's "fresh" chips like those sold at Roberto" in Las Cruces?
I make my sauce the same but add few boiled serranos yo sauce for a kick & add cream cheese & chicken to sauce ☺️
That sounds delicious.
These look so delicious 😊what can of green chilis did you use ?
When I don't roast my own chile, the cans I buy are Hatch diced green chile (It's a yellow label with red & green writing.) I also buy 505 Southwestern Hatch chile in a jar. Both are great options and can be found in mild, medium, or hot.
Yummm
Thanks for watching!
Where did you get those plates?
I got them in Juarez about 30 years ago and they've really lasted (although most of the matching cups have broken). At the time, I was working in El Paso and would cross the border frequently. I'm often asked about them and I tell people you can search for them on Amazon under "Mexican barro dishes."
were did you purchase that casserole dish
Mmmmm need any help eating all that ❤😅
Ha! Somehow, I always have lots of volunteers!
What about rice on side?
untill i moved to indiana I allways thought enchaladas was flat. never seen one roled before
You must be from New Mexico, then.
@@marcyinspired1442 you was right about how much 505 green chile to use for the green sauce. It was delicous thank you
I wonder if those are similar to chilequilles? I know the spelling is off. Lol
Chilaquiles are just enchiladas where the tortillas are cut or torn in small pieces, so technically, you can call the ones I made in the casserole dish chilaquiles. Thanks for checking out my video and for taking the time to comment. Be sure to check out my recipe for chilaquiles at czcams.com/video/s414Ba25yjQ/video.html
As a lifelong Texan I am used to rolled enchiladas. I am curious why some NM restaurants absolutely REFUSE to make their enchiladas "rolled"> Makes no sense at all to me...
That is so funny. I suppose it's a regional thing. I absolutely love them flat and prefer flat to rolled because that's how I grew up eating them. Of course, when it comes to enchiladas, I eat them any way they're prepared. I love them all!
@@marcyinspired1442 And I absolutely understand "how I grew up" BUT don't you agree that some NM restaurants tend to "skimp" on fillings especially chicken and beef when making the enchiladas? Every place I've had them there was very little of anything BETWEEN the tortillas except a little cheese.
@@marcyinspired1442 Curious as to your favorite "locals" NM restaurants in Las Cruces area...especially for enchiladas and rellenos? Two I've found I like are Nellies and Chopes in Las Mesa. Looking for more because we may move there soon!
Oops Marcy
Yes but the New Mexicans do the real chili verde..I'm not sure about the cream/mushroom of chicken. My m.i.l & familia do do them flat though with an egg on top and salad on side or red rice. New Mex is notoriously known for the best red & green dried chilis..just saying..
I kind of regret shooting this video when I didn't have real chile. I loaded up my freezer after the fact. But I was trying to show anyone could make it with what's only available at the grocery store. What part of New Mexico are you from?
I grew up with them this way, and the way you explained, could be certain regions of the state, I know up north they have different names for stuff thats the same. Like a Biscocho, they tend to call it a bischoito.
My fAm too
You did it good… the way you cook is for easy ingredients that you can grab from the groceries…which what I am LOOKING FOR…
This is my 5th video that I watch for green enchiladas 😍
I love the way you COOK 😍💕🥰
Thanks for sharing 🙏
Looks yummy, but cream of mushroom & cream of chicken are not the authentic way to cook NM/Colorado chili verde! You would just use flour & oil to make a rue and then add your chopped or shredded roasted green chili (8 to 12 peppers depending on size of your pot), home made chicken stock or other stock, fresh minced garlic & salt to taste. That's authentic chil verde and how my Martinez mother & Chavez father taught us!
It does not matter. Even my authentic Hispanic family cheats. If you have the time and patients to do it flour and oil good for you.
I simply don't understand WHY New Mexican folks serve enchiladas FLAT. Makes no sense as rolled offers so much more texture and filling size. My son even asked if he should use a KNIFE to eat the flat enchiladas! Another issue I have with the flat enchiladas is that it is REALLY easy for the restaurant to "skimp" on fillings because the whole thing is covered with sauce.
You get more stuff on a flat enchilada than a rolled one as you can't put as much fillings in a rolled one... Use some logic eseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!
Cream of chicken ahh hell no girl u better roast some chilies and boil some tomatillas to make the sauce 😢😢
