Favorite Chicken Enchiladas

Adapted from Ivory Family Favorites Cookbook

I love enchiladas and am always up for trying a new enchilada dish. This was especially scrumptious!

Ingredients:

2 cups cooked, diced chicken

2 tablespoons butter

1 medium onion, chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

1-16 ounce can crushed tomatoes

1-8 ounce can tomato sauce

1-4 ounce can diced green chilies

1 teaspoon sugar

1 teaspoon ground cumin

1 teaspoon basil

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon oregano

4 flour or wheat tortillas

4 cups cheddar cheese, grated and divided

sour cream

Saute onion and garlic in butter. Add crushed tomatoes, tomato sauce, green chilies, sugar and spices. Bring to a boil and simmer 20 minutes. Spoon some of the sauce over tortillas one at a time to soften a little. Top with a few pieces of chicken and cheese, reserving 1 cup of cheese for topping. Roll up and place seam side down in a grease 9x13 inch glass dish. Pour the remaining sauce over the top. Sprinkle with remaining cheese. Bake for 40 minutes at 350 degrees. Top each serving with sour cream.
