Chicken Enchiladas

Sauce:
Mix 1 can enchilada sauce, 1 can mushroom soup, and 1 tub sour cream (or 1 cup if you like a spicier flavor). Coat a 9x12 pan with the sauce and set the rest aside.

Filling:

Dice cooked chicken (1 whole chicken makes about 1 13X9 pan of enchiladas if you pack them tight).
 Add 1 can olives, sliced (or use sliced olives), 
 and 1 chopped onion. (The onion part has been a sticking point for me because I don't like biting into onion. You can sautee the onions first so they aren't crunchy, or use minced dried onion or onion powder, or you can use this sauce, which has onion in it, and skip the onion in the filling).
1 can diced green chilies


Mix it up. 


Grate a bunch of cheese. This goes with the filling in the tortillas.


 Put the chicken mixture and a handful of cheese into a tortilla and roll it up.  Lay it in  the prepared pan. Repeat until the filling is gone and the pan is full (sometimes it fills a 9x9 and a 9x12 pan). Or layer tortillas, chicken, and cheese like a lasagne.


Pour sauce over all, cover with foil, and bake 30 minutes at 350. Uncover, sprinkle with cheese and return to oven for 10 minutes, until cheese is melted and edges of pan are bubbly.
