Servings: 4
Ingredients
- Lime
- 1, cut into wedges
- Avocado
- 1, sliced
- Red onion
- 1 small, thinly sliced
- Cilantro
- 1/2 cup, chopped
- Queso fresco
- 1 cup, crumbled
- Green mole sauce
- 2 cups (store-bought or homemade)

- Chicken breasts
- 2 cups, cooked and shredded
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a dry skillet over medium heat, warm the corn tortillas one at a time until they are pliable, about 30 seconds per side. Keep them covered with a clean kitchen towel to retain warmth.
- Spread a spoonful of green mole sauce on each tortilla, making sure to cover the surface.
- In the center of each tortilla, place a portion of shredded chicken. Roll the tortilla tightly from one end to the other, securing the filling inside.
- Place the rolled enchiladas seam-side down in a greased baking dish. Pour the remaining green mole sauce over the top, ensuring they are generously coated.
- Sprinkle crumbled queso fresco over the enchiladas for added flavor and creaminess.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Once out of the oven, garnish with chopped cilantro, thinly sliced red onion, and avocado slices. Serve with lime wedges on the side for an extra burst of freshness.
- Enjoy your delicious enchiladas hot!
