- 2 cups cooked chicken breast, cut into 2.5cm cubes.
- 1 tbsp. tomato salsa, plus for filing
- 250 g grated sharp cheddar
Preparation:
- Fold a large sheet of foil in half and place it vertically in the center of the slow cooker, creating a divider that divides the container into two halves. Make sure the foil is securely in place.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the cream cheese and cumin until smooth.
- Green EnchiladaPlace two tortillas in the bottom of one of the slow cooker compartments, overlapping each other. Spread 2 tablespoons of the cream cheese mixture over the tortillas, then top with 1/4 of the green enchilada sauce. Add 1/3 of the black beans, 1/3 of the corn, and 1/4 cup of the cheese. Repeat 2 more times and top with 2 more tortillas. Drizzle with the remaining green sauce and sprinkle with cheese.
- Red EnchiladaPlace 2 tortillas in the bottom of the empty compartment of the slow cooker, overlapping each other. Spread 2 tablespoons of the cream cheese mixture over the tortillas, then drizzle with 1/4 of the red enchilada sauce. Add 1/3 of the chicken and 1/4 cup of cheddar. Repeat 2 more times and top with the last 2 tortillas. Top with the remaining sauce, removing only the tomato pieces, and sprinkle with cheddar.
- Close the slow cooker and cook on low for 4-6 hours, until the cheese is melted and bubbling, the filling is heated through, and the edges of the tortillas are crispy.
- Serve green enchiladas with salsa verde, cilantro, and avocado. Serve red enchiladas with tomato salsa and hot sauce, if desired.
