SubscribeSpicy Avocado Chicken Enchiladas & Giveaway!*
Cinco de Mayo is always one of my favorite holidays. Growing up Cinco De Mayo was a guaranteed good time with more drinks than one should have on a Tuesday. Keep in mind, I lived in Texas -which is like 50% Mexican & 25% cows- so it was almost impossible to avoid one of the 500 parties on that day. Even my friends who were Cuban or Puerto Rican would wear the Mexican flag’s colors and get down for Cinco De Mayo.
Then I moved to Florida…and some of the local “authentic Mexican” restaurants will have drink specials and maybe one person will be wearing one of those gaudy flashing shot glass necklaces. So instead, Jorge (the Puerto Rican) and Jessica (the white girl) pretend to be Mexican and have a big feast…and one too many Tequila drinks. 
Just in case these Spicy Avocado Chicken Enchiladas aren’t calling your name, I have rounded up some of my other favorites for you to celebrate with:
Cinco de Mayo: Let's Celebrate!
 Buffalo Chicken Enchiladas |  AppleJack Sangria |  Salsa Verde Chicken Tacos |
 Green Chicken Chili Tamales |  Vegetable Enchiladas |  Blackened Fish Tacos |
But you really should give these Spicy Avocado Chicken Enchiladas a chance…they are seriously one of my favorites! The sauce has a divine slow heat from the serrano pepper and a creamy texture from the sour cream. I really do love that sauce, but the best part has to be the bites of warm avocado inside the enchiladas! If you pick up a rotisserie chicken for the meat, these enchiladas come together extremely fast and will go perfectly with your celebratory margarita!
I made these enchiladas with some of my favorite Cabot. Make sure and scroll down to check out a giveaway of two Cabot Cheese Gift Boxes!
Spicy Avocado Chicken Enchiladas
Yield: serves 4
Recipe Note: To make these as Spicy as their name, leave in the seeds in the Serrano Pepper and use a "medium" Salsa Verde. For those without the love of heat, seed the Serrano Pepper and use a "mild" Salsa Verde.
Ingredients:
for the sauce:
1 tablespoon butter
1 Serrano pepper, minced
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tbsp flour
1 cup chicken stock
1 tsp cumin
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp fresh ground pepper
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
1 cup medium salsa verde
1/2 cup fat free sour creamfor the enchiladas:
3 cups chopped cooked chicken breasts (about 4 breasts)
8 oz Cabot Monterrey Jack Cheese, shredded & divided
1 small yellow onion, chopped
3 avocados, peeled and chopped
8-10 flour tortillasDirections:
Preheat oven to 375°F.
In a medium sauce pan, melt butter over medium-high heat. Saute serrano pepper and garlic, for 1 minute. Stir in flour, constantly stirring, and cook for 2 minutes. Whisk in the chicken broth, cumin, salt and pepper and bring to a low boil. Once boiling, whisk in the sour cream, salsa verde and cilantro. Remove from heat.
Spray/grease a 9×13 baking dish. Add 3/4 cup sauce to the bottom of the pan. Add chicken, Cabot Monterrey Jack Cheese, onion and avocado to the center of each tortilla and roll, placing seam-side down in the dish. Pour the remaining sauce over the enchiladas. Top with leftover cheese and bake for 15-20 minutes or until bubbling. Serve immediately.
CLOSED! Giveaway has ended!

I have got to find a way to sneak these enchiladas in – maybe a drop or two of red food dye to get them on the table without complaint before the BF realizes the bait and switch.
I am a sucker for cheese… I hate that I just admitted that, but I would totally take the cheese. I’d do the shot of tequila too, but the cheese would go first.
Anna — May 7, 2012 @ 2:04 pm

If you would have said wine, I would have had to say wine AND cabot together. But I’ll just take the cabot over the tequila! CABOT is my fave! And I am a fan of both.

Tough choice!! Definitely the cheese over a shot but if the shot is in a margarita, I’ll take the marg!

I made this tonight (ugh, sooooo yummy)! I have a housewarming party to go to and was wondering if this could be semi-made ahead and froze for a later time? Or would it be totally gross? Any affect on cook time? Thoughts????
Jessica replied: — May 16th, 2012 @ 10:23 am
I am so glad! We LOVED these!
I am not sure about the freezing aspect. I wonder what it would do to texture and to the avocado?
I have made these ahead of time, like 12 hours ahead, and popped them in the fridge until later that evening. …If you try freezing them though, you have to come back and let me know how it goes!

Erin @ The Spiffy Cookie — May 22, 2012 @ 7:27 pm
Just made these. But got to the end of the recipe and realized that I did not save any extra cheese for the topping! Unfortunately in the directions it does not mention how much to reserve for topping while stuffing it inside the tortillas. Just thought I’d let you know to fix so that others won’t be confused.
Jessica replied: — May 23rd, 2012 @ 8:32 pm

I was a little skeptical about cooking avocados, I have never had one warm before. These were sooooo good! I will definately make them again. I may cut down the recipe a little next time though because I didn’t care for them as leftovers, something about reheated brown avocados the next day was a turn off.

Katie — December 7, 2012 @ 8:39 pm
I really liked these — that sauce is the bomb.com! I did end up with about twice as much filling as I needed, though, and I filled the tortillas fairly full. When I make these again, I will either make only half the filling or buy twice as many tortillas and make a pan to freeze. The only other complaint was from my husband, who would have preferred that the onions were sauteed before they were added to the filling (they were still a bit crunchy coming out of the oven).

Made this recipe this weekend after having it on my pinterest for ages, wished I hadn’t waited so long it was amazing! I almost veered from the recipe and sauteed the onions but am so glad I didn’t. The recipe was absolutely perfect as is! BTW, I tried to repin it today and for some reason pinterest has blocked it because of spam?

I made these for my bf’s family and they were delicious, rave reviews! Now I am at home and there was no salsa verde at the store.. Any idea how they would turn out with regular salsa?

Glad to hear you were still able to make them, but yes it is a totally different flavor. If you can find Tomatillos, you can also make your own!
Just FYI, I have been able to find Salsa Verde at Target and Walmart and I am pretty sure they carry the same stuff all over the US.

If anyone else runs into this problem, it turned out with regular salsa as well, although not quite the same.
