Chicken Enchiladas Verdes

Made these last night - delish! My substitutions: plain greek yogurt instead of sour cream; mixed mexican shredded cheese instead of muenster; used medium salsa I also added in some green chilies to amp up the flavor as well as some black beans for variety. Oh, don't judge, but I used canned chicken (I had cans that needed to be used up). Will def. make this again.

Made these for dinner tonight. Wow, they were good! All the sour cream makes them very rich (my wife added extra to hers). 1) The corn doesn't really add anything to the recipe. I'll leave it out next time. 2) The enchiladas don't have any heat whatsoever. Next time I will use medium salsa verde instead of mild.

I made this recipe using low fat sour cream and low fat cheese and it was still delicious!

I will not try this recipe until I can lower the calories and fat...969 calories is most of my day's worth! Perhaps lowering the fat in the sour cream, cheese etc. will make it worth the effort, but it is worth a try!

JEEZ,what calorie intake must the rest of the day be for this dish to total more than 1800-2000/day?! Anyway, I buy the publix pot roast that is in the butcher section that can just be heated up in the microwave prior and the gravy is then discarded. Shred the beef with a fork and can be substituted for the chicken! can combine with black beans and makes a great chicken alternative!

Absolutely delicious. I've made it for my family over and over again - the sauce is especially gorgeous.

rather delayed reply, but I too was sort of aghast at the calories, fat and carbs. One thing that might make a difference is using corn tortillas, which one should do with enchiladas anyhow. And yes, less cheese and low fat sour cream.

Read labels...get lowest sodium salsa verde possible and do not add any kosher salt. Use lowest cal, highest fiber tortillas you can find. Use reduced fat sour cream and cheeses. I haven't tried it but you could even try subbing yogurt for the sour cream. Decrease cheese to just a sprinkle on the top. Skip the side of rice to reduce calories.

Did not try it once I read the calories, fat and sodium contents. Any suggestions to lower these 3 factors, especially sodium?

Excellent, but I did it wrong. I completely forgot to cook the sauce and add the other 1/2 cup of sour cream. It was perfectly creamy and wonderful, though. I added a splash of lime juice to the sauce. I also used low fat sour cream. I served with rice and refried black beans. It got rave reviews from my family-no leftovers, the highest compliment.

This was a very good dish. I may cut back on the amount of Salsa Verde for my own taste. But it was a hit at my house and will be made again.

I made these again using boiled shrimp, it was just as great. I highly recommend it. Thanks again for this great recipe.

I see several other pieces of nutritional info, but NO calorie information.

Before you start lecturing about calorie count, etc, try hitting "print". It's right there at the bottom of the recipe for you to see.

No listing of calorie count? That's the bottom line. Healthy recipes can have fewer calories. I am not inclined to make any recipe without this info. This should be listed at the bottom of the directions. No clicking, please.

This was very good even though I substituted regular "mild" salsa for salsa verde. The recipe seems to be missing the Calories per Serving in the nutitional information - which is an important consideration.
