Spread a very small amount (approximately 1/4 cup) in the bottom of the pan. Spray an 8.5×11″ baking dish with cooking spray.In a large bowl, mix together sour cream, cream of chicken soup, green chilies, black olives, and green onions.Reduce heat to medium-high and continue cooking chicken breasts until cooked completely and no longer pink in the middle (approximately 20 minutes & has a center temp of 170 degrees F). Place chicken breasts in a large pot, cover with water, and heat to a boil.Not only is most of the ingredients just a matter of mixing them up, but you don’t have to fry tortillas and you don’t have to roll them up - these enchiladas are layered! Print You will find this recipe for Layered Creamy Chicken Enchiladas to be very simple. Yeah, probably weird to share such details while trying to entice you with one of my recipes, but what can I say? It’s a significant part of the history of this recipe. All that cheesy and creamy goodness did me in. In March of 1993, I had this meal one night with my family and ended up in the emergency room and later that night I learned I had gallstones. Since I was talking about my good food memories of this recipe, I should also share one of my bad ones.

I’ll be honest, I’m still not happy with the photos, but I think it’s time for this post to happen, especially with the #SundaySupper comfort food theme. I’ve intended to put my Creamy Chicken Enchiladas on my blog for a long time, but I’ve never been happy with the photos so I keep putting it off. Spreading a 2nd layer of the creamy chicken mixture on top of the tortillas Now, making this meal reminds me most of my sister and the many times we enjoyed it together. I’ve made this meal twice since her death - once on her birthday and again this past week for Courtney’s birthday, per her request.

Creamy Chicken Enchiladas has been one of my favorite meals for a long time, but it was also a favorite dinner of my sister, Danielle, who passed away almost a year ago. It’s a recipe that my mom made many times, which she received it from my Great Aunt Mary, who received it from her housekeeper (I believe). The recipe I’m sharing for #SundaySupper is called Creamy Chicken Enchiladas.

And that’s what this blog is all about - food memories and stories. Comfort food usually evokes certain feelings and memories when you cook it and, most importantly, when you eat it. I think that’s a perfect theme for Home Cooking Memories to participate in. Comfort food is the ultimate of food memories, don’t you think? This week for #SundaySupper, our theme is exactly that…comfort food.
