Buffalo Chicken Enchiladas (online recipe here)
from the food blog How Sweet It Is
adapted from BBQ chicken enchiladas
makes 8 enchiladas
8 large whole wheat tortillas (my favorite are La Tortilla Factory!) *I (Andrea) used Tortilla Factory and they were amazing. I will NEVER buy a nother brand again!*
3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cooked and shredded
28 ounce can red enchilada sauce
1/2 cup buffalo wing sauce (+ more depending on your taste buds)
1 cup shredded monterey jack cheese
4 ounces gorgonzola cheese, crumbled5 green onions, chopped
1/2 cup fresh cilantro, coarsely chopped
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
Spray a 9 x 13 baking dish with non-stick spray. Pour enchilada sauce in a bowl and begin by whisking in 1/4 cup buffalo wing sauce. Taste and adjust according to your desired level of heat – I added in 1/2 cup total. Set aside.
Add shredded chicken to a bowl with 2 green onions and 1/2 cup monterey jack cheese. Pour in about a 1/2 cup of enchilada/buffalo sauce mixture and mix thoroughly. Stir until mixture comes together.
Pour a drizzle of enchilada/buffalo sauce in the bottom of the baking dish. Take each tortilla and fill it with a few heaping tablespoons of the chicken mixture. Roll each up and set it in the baking dish, seam side down. Pour another 1/2 cup or more of enchilada/buffalo sauce on top of tortillas and add remaining monterey jack cheese. Bake for 20-25 minutes. Immediately after taking enchiladas out of the oven, add crumbled gorgonzola on top. Garnish with the remaining onions and cilantro and serve. Store the remaining sauce in the fridge for 1-2 weeks, and use if reheating enchiladas.

YUM! Buffalo chicken anything has to be good. And these look really easy, especially if you just used some costco rotisserie chicken. Thanks for sharing!
Mm, sounds yummy! Thanks for the tip on the tortillas. A good tortilla can be hard to find! :)
