Steps to make Fajita green chile enchiladas:
- Start by letting your chicken breast soak up fajita marinade this is Wegman's brand. I let it marinade for about 6 hours while I was at the pool
- You can cook it however you prefer. I like the airfryer because it locks the flavor, cooks fast and everything stays moist. My chicken took about 20 minutes with some turning.
- While your chicken is cooking chop up your fajita veggies. I grabbed a packet already made up. Toss them in a nonstick pan. It's just to get them soft not fully cooked.
- When the chicken is done remove and chop up into small pieces since we're not shredding the meat
- Toss chicken in a bowl with green chiles, fajita veggies, and cream cheese.
- Here it is all combined well
- I weighed all of my filling and had a little over 40 ounces so that's about 5 ounces per enchilada of filling.
- After you have filled your tortillas line them up in a baking dish that has been sprayed
- Pour your can of green chile sauce and spread out evenly
- Top with shredded low fat Colby jack
- Bake at 375 for 35 minutes
- Take out let it rest then serve. I topped mine with plain Greek yogurt and fresh salsa
