INGREDIENTS

4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves

1/2 tsp. salt

1 tbsp. butter

1 medium onion, chopped

1 (8 oz.) package cream cheese, chopped

1 (4 1/2 oz.) can chopped mild green chiles, drained

8 (8 inch) flour tortillas

2 cups shredded Monterey Jack Cheese

2 cups whipping cream

DIRECTIONS

Combine chicken, salt and enough water to cover in a large saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium high heat. Boil for 20 minutes; drain. Chop chicken into 1/2 inch pieces.

Preheat oven to 350°F.

Melt butter in large skillet over medium high heat. Saute onion in hot butter until tender, about 3 minutes. Stir in chicken, cream cheese and green chiles.

Cook the mixture over medium heat, stirring continually, until cream cheese is melted, about 2 minutes.

Spoon 1/4 cup mixture onto center of each tortilla. Roll to enclose filling. Arrange seam side down in a 13×9 inch baking dish.

Sprinkle Monterey Jack on top of the enchiladas. Drizzle with whipping cream. Bake until hot and bubbly, about 25 to 35 minutes.
