This recipe is incredibly simple, leveraging a slow cooker and a short cook on the Green Mountain for added smoke flavor. Stuffed inside the simplicity is a cheesy, creamy, gooey and smoky deliciousness you won’t believe until you taste it! On top of that, it’s on the lighter side, low in fat and calories. Hope you enjoy!
Ingredients:
- 4lbs of whole chicken breasts
- 1 – 28oz can of Green Chili Enchilada Sauce
- 1 – 15oz can of Cream Style Sweet Corn
- 2 – 10oz cans of Rotel’s Original
- 1 – 4.5oz can of chopped green chilies
- 1 – 8oz package of cream cheese
- 8oz shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 8oz shredded white cheddar cheese
- 8″ tortillas (up to 24, depending on how many you make).
- You could also use 12″ tortillas and a larger pan / larger enchilada.
Filling Directions:
- Line a slow cooker / crock pot with a plastic liner, for easy cleanup when finished
- Place all the chicken breasts into the bottom of the slow cooker
- Pour the Green Chili Enchilada sauce on top of the chicken
- Pour the can of cream style corn into the slow cooker
- Add the Rotel’s and chopped green chilies
- Finally, add the cream cheese to the slow cooker, in table spoon sized chunks for better melt
- Turn the slow cooker on high and cook 6-8 hours until done
Build the enchiladas:
- Preheat the GMG Davy Crockett (or another smoker) to 350 degrees
- Using tongs, remove the chicken breasts from the mixture and place into a large bowl
- Shred the chicken to your liking
- Add the shredded chicken back to the slow cooker and stir well
- Using a half sized steam pan, put some of the enchilada filling into the pan and spread evenly along the bottom of the pan to prevent sticking
- Fill each tortilla with filling, top with a little of each cheese, roll the tortilla up and place in the pan
- Repeat until the pan is full – 8 enchiladas or so
- You can fill 2-3 pans with this amount of filling, depending on how much you put in each
- Cook pans of enchiladas for 1 hour, rotating half way. If you put the enchiladas in the refrigerator, the cook may take up to 90 minutes.
