Chicken Enchiladas

Ingredients

4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1 onion, chopped
1 cup sour cream
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
1 tablespoon dried parsley
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper 1/2 teaspoon salt (optional)
1 (10 ounce) can enchilada sauce 1/2
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 small can diced green chiles
1 clove garlic, minced
8 (10 inch) flour tortillas
1 (12 ounce) jar salsa
3/4 cup shredded Cheddar cheese

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

2. In a medium, non-stick skillet over medium heat, cook chicken until no longer pink and juices run clear. Drain excess fat. Cube the chicken and return it to the skillet. Add the onion, sour cream, Cheddar cheese, parsley, oregano and ground black pepper. Heat until cheese melts. Stir in salt, enchilada sauce, chili powder, green chiles and garlic.

3. Roll even amounts of the mixture in the tortillas. Arrange in a 9x13 inch baking dish. Cover with salsa and 3/4 cup Cheddar cheese. Bake uncovered in the preheated oven 20 minutes. Cool 10 minutes before serving.
