Ingredients
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 lb)

- 8 medium flour tortillas
- 1 cup full-fat sour cream
- 2 cups shredded Mexican blend cheese
- 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup
- 1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large pot, cover the chicken breasts with water and bring to a boil. Cook for 15–20 minutes until no longer pink inside. Shred the chicken.
- In a mixing bowl, combine shredded chicken, minced garlic, and half of the shredded cheese.
- In another bowl, whisk together sour cream, cream of chicken soup, and chicken broth until smooth.
- Spread some sauce on the bottom of a baking dish. Fill each tortilla with about two tablespoons of chicken mixture, roll tightly, and place seam-side down in the dish.
- Pour remaining sauce over the rolled enchiladas and sprinkle with remaining cheese. Bake uncovered for 25–30 minutes until bubbly and golden brown.
