These white chicken enchiladas are a decadent and delicious main dish treat
It’s that time again! And this week white chicken enchiladas were chosen. It was very Paula Deen. The amount of cream, cheese, sour cream, and butter that was called for in this recipe was obscene. I felt like my ass was getting bigger and bigger as I ate it. Needless to say, even though this was probably terrible for me, it was still delicious! I have several tweaks to this recipe, as I’ll note below, and so do the other bloggers so be sure to check them out to make sure when you make this, you won’t make the same mistakes as us and you’ll get some time-saving/calorie-saving tips too!
The lovely Tina from My Life as a Mrs. has the recipe on her blog today!
My notes about this recipe:
- I didn’t roast the peppers, I was in the middle of moving this weekend so I didn’t have the time to roast and peel them. I just diced them and cooked them with the onions.
- I halved the recipe and it still made plenty.
- I only used 1/4 cup of cream.
- If I were to make this again, I’d omit the sour cream.
- I used way too much cheese. I probably wouldn’t use nearly as much as I did for the topping next time.
- The dish was flavorful but I feel that it could’ve had more flavor from spices rather than dumping a bunch of cream and sour cream together.
Don’t forget to check out the other participants in PW Wednesday’s and their take on this recipe! After talking to them about it, I think we all modified this recipe a lot!
If you’ve missed the other installments, here’s a recap:
I love chicken enchiladas. These look wonderful. Will have to check out the recipe and the modifications. Not sure I have ever had cream with my enchiladas before :)
FEED ME.
Too much cheese? Is there such a thing? They look perfect to me. I’m a huge fan of enchiladas!!
I’m so glad that we all took our turns lightening these up in our own way. My jeans can’t handle all the fat!! PW is the Paula Deen of the country. Butter-lovah.
LOVE that we both referenced Paula Deen hahaha But SERIOUSLY! Girl loves her some full fat… haha
Love your modifications! This looks sooooooo good!
Oh boy, yours look insanely creamy! haha I didn’t use the sour cream at all and just put a dollop of greek yogurt instead. I’m thinking that was a good decision. Not that these don’t look amazing, but I’m pretty sure I’d have a stomach ache after half of one! haha :)
I love reading all of your posts and seeing what you each did differently.
lol she sure loves her dairy huh.
It definitely sounds like a lot of butter and cream! I’m not sure how I would feel about eating all that but they do look absolutely delicious.
