Cooking With Amy ~ Tex-Mex Sour Cream Chicken Enchiladas

My family loves this recipe... Sour Cream Chicken Enchiladas are so good. We cannot find this dish at any Mexican restaurant in Virginia. We are originally from Texas and this dish is everywhere. It is really good, so try it, YOU will not be disappointed. (The very end of the video is crappy. Sorry. Our good camera died.) Also, I wrote all the ingredients down that I ended up using ( scroll down) ... so go with that. ANY questions about my recipes, email me amy@readingteen.net.   Love You Guys.... ALL Our Followers.....






I never measure anything so after testing this recipe while cooking it, this is my final assessment...

Melt over medium heat

1 1/2 sticks of butter
4 minced cloves of garlic ( for only 30 seconds) then...

Add

1/4 c. plus 2 Tbsp. flour

- whisk to make a roux

Add

3 c. of chicken stock
salt-n-pepper to taste

let reduce down on medium heat 'till gone by half (about 10-15 min.)

Turn down to low heat

Add

3 c. Sour cream
1 Tbsp. cumin
1 Tbsp. chili powder
2 c. Monterrey Jack cheese

Still simmer for another ten minutes on low
Ladle over rolled chicken enchiladas

Add 2 c. of left over Monterrey Jack cheese all over top of enchiladas

  2. I live in a place where Mexican restaurants are few and far between. I usually end up cooking it at home at least once a week. I cannot wait to try this recipe out on my family. Thank you!!!

    Okay, now I'm drooling all over my keyboard . . . =P

    I'll definitely try the sour cream sauce the next time I make enchiladas. =) (I usually make them with a tomato-based sauce, which my family likes, but I'm up for a change--especially one that sounds as delicious as this one is!)

Finally, My Thoughts on Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins

  Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins Audio  So, I was going through my old posts, looking for something to post today, and came across this.  I guess I never posted it, because I was just so angry and disappointed.  Plus, I think I had talked so much about it, that I was sick of talking about it.  And also, I feel like there were so many things that bothered me that I couldn't get it all down.  But, I thought it might be fun to post this, and see if anyone is interested in it.  So, here are my bitter and resentful thoughts on Mockingjay! :P 8-30-2010 *spoilers galore* After reading Mockingjay all day on Tuesday, I left Wednesday morning to go on vacation for my anniversary.  All I could think about was Mockingjay.  You might think that's a good sign, like it was so well done that I couldn't forget about it.  But, for me, it wasn't.  I was so disappointed in this book.  Honestly, if I hadn't loved the first two books so much, I pr...
