Here's another recipe you must try!!! This one is much simpler than the last one I posted and simply Divine!!!
Honey Lime Chicken Enchiladas
from Brittany at The Sisters' Cafe
6 tablespoons honey
5 tablespoons lime juice (1 large lime)
1 tablespoons chili powder
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 pound chicken, cooked and shredded (I used 3 small chicken breasts)
8-10 flour tortillas
1 pound monterey jack cheese, shredded
16 ounces green enchilada sauce
1 cup heavy cream (to lighten them up, I have substituted sour cream with good results)
Mix the first four ingredients and toss with shredded chicken. Let it marinate for at least 1/2 hour (I tossed mine together in a Ziploc bag in the morning and let it sit in the refrigerator all day). Pour about 1/2 cup enchilada sauce on the bottom of a 9X13 baking pan. Fill flour tortillas with chicken and shredded cheese, saving about 1 cup of cheese to sprinkle on top of enchiladas. Mix the remaining enchilada sauce with the cream and leftover marinade. Pour sauce on top of the enchiladas and sprinkle with cheese. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes until brown and crispy on top.

This looks good. Thanks for the recipes. I always like trying something new, especially if its been "tested". I am going to try this.
definitely gonna have to try.. i loooove when people tell me simple yummy recipes. thanks!
The six b's loved the first recipe and we will try the second. Keep the recipes coming....jk. But seriously thanks for the good eats!
Kind of funny, but when I made them somehow I didn't see the "heavy cream" ingredient. Lex was telling me about the recipe too and mentioned that they weren't that low fat because of the cream. I was pretty confused. So, FYI they are still DELICIOUS with just the green chile enchilada sauce!
