Directions: |
Directions:Preheat oven to 375º, grease 9” x 13” pan.
Melt butter in large skillet over low heat and add onions, cooking till tender.
Remove from heat and add cream cheese, chilies and chicken. Add salt & pepper and mix thoroughly.
Heat 1/4” oil in skillet. Carefully dip tortilla in and wait till it bubbles (this happens quickly), flip over and let it bubble on the other side. Remove to a paper towel and blot. Cook the rest of the tortillas and set aside to drain the oil and cool for handling.
Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the chicken mixture into the tortilla. Spread it down the center and roll the tortilla up and set seam down in the pan. Continue until all are done.
Pour whipping cream on top and sprinkle with shredded cheese.
Bake uncovered about 20 minutes. Garnish with green onions.
Serve with fresh salsa, yum. |

Notes: A bit time consuming but one of my favorite Mexican dishes. Can be made ahead but make sure the pan can go from refrigerator to oven.
