For the enchilada mix

PREPARATIONS:

•    Put the chicken in a pot with enough water with all the ingredients and let the chicken cook (you can decide low, medium or high heat depending of your time to prepare the dish).
•    With 2 forks tear the chicken while warm (it will go faster) – the process is similar as for pulled pork. Set aside.

For the enchiladas

There can be several procedures for warming up the tortillas and for serving

Procedure 1

•    Set the oven in high temperature
•    Warm  up the tortillas in a pan

(Corn tortillas get easily dry if you see the tortilla is too dry put either a little bit of oil or some drops of water, just to moisture the tortilla enough so we can roll it in a flauta.

•    Once you have all the tortillas and chicken ready, divide enough chicken mixture into tortillas and roll them together in an oven tray and put the cheese on top.
•    If they cool off quickly set them in the oven in low temperature to keep them warm while you get everything else ready.
•    Warm up the green sauce ready for serving and when you take the flautas out from the oven pour the green salsa on top.
•    Mix the sour cream with the milk (it should be runny – like a sauce) and put the mixture on top of the enchiladas ready for serving

Procedure 2

•    Put enough oil in a fryer, frying pan or wok and heat it up at high temperature. When the oil is hot, carefully put a tortilla after the other and let them fry slightly just about a couple of minutes, they should not be hard just gilded!
•       Once you have all the tortillas and chicken ready, divide the chicken mixture into tortillas and roll them together in a plate put grated cheese on top, then the warm salsa and the sour cream

Serve enchiladas with simple salad, rice, guacamole, totopos (tortilla chips –buy @lamexikana.no) and chili sauce.
