A delicious and healthy twist on traditional enchiladas, made with tender chicken, creamy white sauce, and low-carb tortillas, perfect for family gatherings.

  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

  • 2 cups cooked, diced boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup cream cheese
  • 4 low-carb tortillas
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
  • Fresh lime juice, to taste
  • 1/2 cup chopped onions
  • Olive oil, for sautéing
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Fresh cilantro, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). In a skillet, add a splash of olive oil and sauté chopped onions until translucent.
  2. Add in diced chicken and spices, cooking until the chicken is no longer pink.
  3. In a separate saucepan, combine Greek yogurt, cream cheese, and chicken broth. Whisk over medium heat, seasoning with garlic powder, and salt and pepper until smooth.
  4. Spread a thin layer of the white sauce in a greased baking dish. Assemble the enchiladas by placing the chicken mixture in each tortilla and rolling it up tightly.
  5. Pour the remaining white sauce over the top of the rolled tortillas and sprinkle with cheese.
  6. Bake for about 25-30 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  7. Garnish with fresh cilantro and a squeeze of lime before serving.
