How to Make Chicken Enchiladas
- Cook 4-5 chicken breasts in a crockpot with salsa and taco seasoning for about 3 hours until tender. Shred the chicken into bite-sized pieces.
- In a bowl, combine the shredded chicken, cottage cheese, and a portion of the cheddar cheese. Mix until well blended.
- Lay out the tortillas and fill each one with the chicken mixture. Roll them tightly and place them seam-side down in a greased baking dish.
- Pour the enchilada sauce generously over the rolled tortillas and sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese on top.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F for 30-40 minutes until bubbly and golden, or cover tightly and freeze for future dinners.
- When ready to eat the frozen enchiladas, bake at 350°F for about 45-60 minutes, covering with foil if they brown too quickly.

Notes
Optional: Garnish with fresh cilantro or sliced jalapeños for an extra kick. Freeze enchiladas without sauce for better texture.
