Spoon 1/2 cup chicken mixture down the center of each tortilla. Fold the tortillas around the filling. Place the filled tortillas seam-side down into an 11x8x2-inch baking dish. Spoon the reserved soup mixture over the filled tortillas. Sprinkle with the cheese, if desired. Cover the baking dish.

I use flour tortillas - and it turns out perfectly. The whole family loves this. Even this picky eaters.
Delightful
I was really surprised just how good this was. I was completely taken aback when I saw the chicken soup as an ingredient but tried it because of the positive reviews. I was not disappointed. It’s been copied and added to my regular recipe box!
Great Enchiladas - Easy To Prepare
I used leftover turkey and flour tortillas to make this recipe. I can see using store-bought rotisserie chicken to make it easy. Very tasty!
Best. Recipe. Ever.
This was recommended to me by a friend at work that raved about this recipe. She said they were amazing and boy oh boy are they! The hubby, my 8 year old twins and I had them two weeks ago and I jumped on the site to get the recipe again to make them again tonight.
