"There are few dishes more comforting - or more delicious - than enchiladas. Even though they can be filled with a variety of different ingredients, we like using chicken for them. Chicken is, first of all, one of the more affordable types of meat you can use, but it also has a rather neutral flavor profile that really allows the seasonings, sauce, and other fillings to shine. Chicken enchiladas make for a super versatile meal that your whole family is likely to love."
"It can especially be an issue if you're working with corn tortillas (which you should, since this is how enchiladas are traditionally made). But you don't have to deal with broken, leaky tortillas that cause your fillings to spill out- you're probably just making what Megan Keno, creator of Homemade Home, says is one of the biggest mistakes home cooks can make with chicken enchiladas: "not using warmed tortillas during the rolling process.""
Enchiladas deliver comforting, flavorful meals, and chicken works well because it is affordable and has a neutral flavor that lets seasonings, sauce, and fillings shine. Chicken enchiladas provide a versatile family-friendly dinner. A frequent technical mistake is using cold or room-temperature tortillas when rolling, which causes corn tortillas to break, crack, and leak fillings. Traditional enchiladas use corn tortillas. Warming tortillas before rolling softens them and prevents tearing, making assembly neater and preserving fillings. Attention to tortilla temperature and choosing appropriate tortillas improves texture, appearance, and the overall success of chicken enchiladas.
