Chicken Enchiladas with homemade corn tortillas and Zucchini Oat Bread for Dessert!

Corn Tortillas



2 cups of Maseca Corn Masa Mix
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/4 cups water (If the dough is a little crumbly then add 1 tablespoon of water at a time until desired consistency)

Mix all ingredients together and divide into 16 equal balls. Cover balls with a damp paper towel to keep them from drying out while you press the tortillas.

Then use a tortilla press (or rolling pin, although a tortilla press is the easiest way) to flatten dough into a nice round tortillas.

Grill on a skillet or non-stick frying pan for about 40 secs a side or until golden brown.

Chicken Enchiladas



4 chicken breasts, diced
3-4 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
3-4 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
1 can green enchilada sauce
3-4 cups of cheese(Depending on how much cheese you like you can add more or reduce)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Season chicken with a little bit of salt and pepper and fry in a skillet until cooked (you can also bake the breasts in the oven instead).

Mix chopped cilantro, chopped parsley and green sauce together. Divide mixture and mix half with half of the cheese and set the other half aside for drizzling the top of the enchiladas.

Take one tortilla at a time and put some chicken and a little sauce/cheese mixture inside, roll up and place in pan. Continue this until pan is full. Then pour remaining sauce over top and sprinkle with rest of cheese.

Now cover and bake for 20 minutes or until cheese is melted.
