    This is delicious thank you. I doubled the recipe but only added one tin of kidney beans and it just fit tmrc_emoticons.;) I also added a generous shake of Mexican Chilli seasoning at the start with the chillies and it has given it decent heat! Go perfectly wth the Tequila Margarita Sorbet!!

    The family loves these! It works out to approx 360 calories per enchilada, so if you are watching your waistline, not a bad meal!

    This was delish! Next time I'll need to be prepared & make the chicken ahead of time so its not too long for a week night dinner. Loved the flavour though & my husband & daughter demolished it.

  • Quite nice. Like others, I

    Submitted by vmwhitak on 12. August 2014 - 19:24.

    Quite nice. Like others, I made this faster by using left over BBQ chicken. I didn't have quite enough of it so I bulked it out with tinned corn and mushrooms. I also used wholemeal tortillas to increase the fibre. I found the sauce very bland though (I think its all the beans) so I doubled the cumin and when that wasn't enough I added some tomato paste and most of a pack of taco seasoning mix, which gave it a lot more flavour. Will definitely make it this way again, but will only use half a tin of retfried beans and swap the kidney beans for baked beans as others here have done.

    Submitted by KikiAbdallah on 12. August 2014 - 12:30.

    This was delish!

    I added corn, baby spinach, shallots and mushroom to my shredded chicken mixture to up the veg content.

    I also skipped the kidney beans in the sauce and used the refried beans only and added a spoon of sugar to balance the flavours.

    Yum yum yum! I highly recommend others try this dish! tmrc_emoticons.)

    This recipe is a ripper! I decided to leave out both beans and I replaced with a can of rinsed brown lentils. My whole family enjoyed it Including 2 children. 

    Will be cooking again!

  • made these the other night

    Submitted by Cromwell on 30. June 2014 - 16:32.

    made these the other night and they were delicious!! i ommitted the beans as im not keen on them.

    next time i will put less sauce on the bottom and space them better as they were soggy on the bottom.

    hubby and i also both said that the filling mixture would be yummy mixed through some pasta.

    thankyou for a great recipe

  • Tried this for dinner

    Submitted by vanessa2599 on 12. May 2014 - 21:53.

    Tried this for dinner tonight.    I didnt add avocado or sour cream or refined beans.    The dinner was well above what I expected, so it will now be on my weekly or fortnightly dinner list.   Thank you love it

  • Made this using leftover BBQ

    Submitted by knittercook on 11. April 2014 - 06:47.

    Made this using leftover BBQ chicken, the sauce is delicious and will become a favourite in this household. I didn't add avocados as they are way too expensive at the moment, and it was fine without them. I did notice that garlic cloves are on the ingredient list but not in the recipe preparation, I added them with the chillis.

    a lovely recipe, thank you for sharing tmrc_emoticons.)
