Notes
Additional Tips and Notes
- Perfecting the Sauce Consistency: If your sour cream sauce turns out too thick, you can thin it with a bit more chicken broth. Conversely, if it’s too thin, let it simmer for a few extra minutes to thicken up before pouring it over the enchiladas.
- Customizing the Spice Level: If you prefer a milder flavor, reduce or omit the green chilies and jalapeños. For those who like more heat, add extra chilies or a pinch of cayenne pepper to the sauce.
- Serving Suggestions: Serve the enchiladas with a side of Mexican rice, refried beans, or a simple salad. A dollop of guacamole or a sprinkle of fresh cilantro adds a fresh contrast to the rich flavors.
