Ingredients

cooking spray
1 cup chunky salsa
6 oz cream cheese, softened
3 cups shredded cooked chicken
8 (8-inch) flour tortillas
1 (15 oz) can enchilada sauce
0.5 cup shredded Mexican cheese blend

Directions

1

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil; coat with cooking spray.

2

In a large pan, combine salsa and cream cheese over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the cream cheese melts and the mixture is smooth and well combined, about 5 minutes. Add chicken; cook until heated through, 2 to 3 minutes.

3

Spoon the chicken mixture onto tortillas. Roll into enchiladas and place them, seam-sides down, on the prepared baking sheet. Pour enchilada sauce over the enchiladas.

4

Bake for 10 minutes. Sprinkle Mexican cheese blend over the top; continue baking until cheese melts, about 5 to 10 minutes more. Serve hot.
