Outdoor grilling has been nearly impossible the past few days, as we have been experiencing the worst weather imaginable. Monsoonal rains, huge thunderstorms, tornadoes, hail, and floods have kept everyone in southern Minnesota inside, either ducking for cover when the tornado sirens sound or mopping up waterlogged basements; however, none of this prevented me from making some great chicken dishes.

 

One of the dishes I prepared was a fantastic chicken recipe from RecipeTips.com. “Chicken Enchiladas” is an oven-baked dish that I would classify as a comfort food—warm and satisfying, full of flavor, and so easy to make. It’s difficult to get any easier than combining shredded cooked chicken with five other ingredients, and two of the ingredients are canned: cream of chicken soup and chopped green chilies. The other three ingredients also come ready made: sour cream, packaged flour tortillas, and packaged pre-shredded cheese. That’s it! No, it doesn’t sound like much, but the result is excellent. As I’ve said before, I’ve never been fond of using canned soups in recipes, but I think I might have to change my mind after tasting this great dish. I hope you’ll enjoy it!
