  • Tips

    • Easy Substitution: Substitute 3 cans (4.5 ounces each) Swanson® Premium White Chunk Chicken Breast in Water, drained, for the cooked chicken.
  • Step 1

    Set the oven to 375°F.  Spread 1/4 cup picante sauce in the bottom of an 11x8x2-inch baking dish.

  • Step 2

    Stir 3/4 cup picante sauce, sour cream, chili powder, chicken and 1/2 cup cheese in a large bowl.

  • Step 3

    Spoon about 1/3 cup chicken mixture down the center of each tortilla. Roll up the tortillas and place seam-side down in the baking dish. Spread the remaining picante sauce over the filled tortillas.  Sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 cup cheese.

  • Step 4

    Bake for 20 minutes or until the enchiladas are hot and bubbling. Top with the onion.
