Step-by-Step Preparation Guide for White Chicken Enchiladas

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly spray a 9×13-inch baking dish with non-stick spray.

In a medium bowl, mix together the shredded chicken, half the can of cream of chicken soup, Greek yogurt, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, and black pepper. Stir until smooth and creamy.

Lay out each tortilla and fill the center with 2 to 3 tablespoons of the chicken mixture. Roll them up tightly and place seam-side down in your prepared baking dish.

In another bowl, mix the remaining soup with a spoonful of yogurt or a little water to thin it. Pour this over the rolled tortillas in the baking dish, spreading evenly.

Sprinkle both shredded cheeses over the top. Cover with foil and bake for 25 minutes. Then remove the foil and bake uncovered for another 10 minutes, until the cheese is bubbly and golden.

For a fresh meal prep option, consider pairing it with Cucumber Dill Salad or Roasted Butternut Squash.
