To cook Fareway enchiladas, start by preheating your oven to 350°F, then prepare the filling using cooked chicken, cheese, and enchilada sauce, and finally roll them up in tortillas and bake for about 20 minutes.
Gather your ingredients first. You’ll need tortillas, cooked chicken, enchilada sauce, cheese, and spices. You can use rotisserie chicken to save time.
Next, in a bowl, combine the shredded chicken with half of the cheese and some enchilada sauce. Mix it well.
Take a tortilla and spoon some of the filling onto it. Roll it up tightly and place it seam-side down in a baking dish.
Repeat this process until all the tortillas are filled and in the dish. Pour the remaining enchilada sauce over the top and sprinkle with the rest of the cheese.
Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for about 15 minutes. After that, remove the foil and bake for another 5 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and slightly browned.
Let it cool for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh cilantro or sour cream if desired. Enjoy your homemade Fareway enchiladas!
