Cheesy Chicken Enchiladas

I normally don't like anything cooked in the microwave, but this saves quite a bit of prep. time and this is the way the recipe was given to me so I go with it.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Zap on high for 2-3 minutes until tender:
  • 1/2 cup diced onions
  • 1/2 tesp. garlic powder
  • 1 T. olive oil
Stir in:
  • 2 cups chopped cooked chicken
  • 1 small can chopped green chilies
  • 1/4 cup chicken broth
  • 2 tesp. chili powder
  • 1 tesp. cumin (if you like it)
Zap on high 4 minutes or until heated thru.

Add in: 4 ounces cream cheese. Stir well until melted.

Spoon: 1/3 cup mixture onto each of 6 flour tortillas. Roll up and place seam side down into baking dish.

Sauce:
Zap on high for 2-3 minutes or until melted:
  • 1/4 pound Velveeta
  • 2 T. milk
  • 1/2 cup tomatoes (Rotel) -- reserve 1/4 cup tomatoes for topping
Pour sauce over the enchiladas. Add reserved tomatoes to top.
Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes.
