Ground Chicken Enchiladas Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir ground chicken and onion in the hot skillet until chicken is no longer pink, crumbly, and onion is soft, 5 to 7 minutes.

Stir until melted and fully incorporated. Stir in black pepper.
• Pour one can of enchilada sauce into the prepared baking dish and spread to cover the bottom. Divide chicken mixture between the 8 tortillas and roll up tightly.

Pour second can of enchilada sauce on top of rolled tortillas. Cover the dish tightly with foil.
