Ingredients
-
1 (10 ounce) can mild enchilada sauce
-
1 tablespoon olive oil
-
1 small onion, diced
-
1 pound ground chicken
-
1 (10 ounce) can diced tomatoes with green chiles (such as RO*TEL®), halfway drained
-
½ (1.25 ounce) package reduced-sodium taco seasoning mix
-
5 ounces crumbled queso fresco, divided
-
¼ cup Mexican crema
-
1 tablespoon Mexican crema
-
1 large egg
-
6 corn tortillas
-
3 ounces grated Cheddar cheese
Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Spread about 4 tablespoons enchilada sauce over the bottom of an 8x6-inch baking dish. Pour remaining enchilada sauce into a medium bowl.
-
Heat oil in a heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion; cook and stir until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add ground chicken and sauté until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Pour diced tomatoes and liquid into the skillet and stir in taco seasoning until incorporated.
-
To the enchilada sauce in the bowl, add 4 ounces queso fresco, 1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon Mexican crema, and egg; stir to combine.
-
Trim tortillas to have a straight edge if desired. Lay two tortillas in enchilada sauce in the baking dish; top with some chicken mixture and some enchilada sauce mixture. Repeat layers (tortillas, chicken, sauce) twice more. Top with remaining queso fresco and Cheddar cheese.
-
Bake, covered, in the preheated oven for 35 minutes. Uncover and bake for 10 more minutes. Let rest for 10 to 15 minutes before serving.
