I am a HUGE enchilada fan. I’ve tried numerous recipes from food blogs, cookbooks and restaurants and I can say that I LOVE THESE THE MOST! This is the only enchilada recipe I will use going forward. I love the layers of flavor with the slow cooker chicken….and the gravy is unbelievable!

Our Chinese exchange student came home from college for the holidays and I made this green bean side dish to accompany chicken. He does not like cooked vegetables, so I was not sure it would go over. He loved it enough to eat two servings. Thank you for a great recipe. My husband raved about it.
