Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 180°C. Heat a drizzle of oil in a frying pan. Add the chicken and brown over medium heat. Remove the chicken and set aside.
  • Add the onion, garlic and capsicum to the pan and cook over medium heat until the onion has softened. Add the ground cumin and cook for a further minute. Add the Mexican tomatoes, water and tomato puree and bring to the boil. Simmer for 2 minutes.
  • Place half of the tomato mixture into a bowl and set aside. Add the chicken to the pan and simmer for 4 to 5 minutes or until the chicken is just cooked.
  • Spread some of the reserved sauce onto each tortilla then place 2 to 3 tablespoons of the chicken mixture on one end. Roll up and place in a lightly greased ovenproof dish. Pour the remaining sauce on the top of the enchiladas then sprinkle with the grated cheese.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes or until the top is golden and the enchiladas are heated through. Serve immediately with sour cream and coriander.
