"Stacked" is the only way i know how to make enchiladas, since i grew up in Northern New Mexico. The first time I saw "rolled" was when i went to school in Las Cruces. If you do like Rolled i'm sureyou can change up this recipe to suit your taste.

Warning: feel freeto change anything in this recipe!! thats why we have tons of different delicious ways to make NMs favorite foods

About a dozen corn tortillas
1 or 2 can(s) Cream of Chicken OR Cream of Mushroom Soup (dilute as necessary)
Diced Hatch Green Chile(as much as needed) read below to see what i mean
One Bag shredded cheese(cheddar works best in my opinion)
One Rotisserie chicken(meat seperated)
**Add anything else you like


You can fry the tortillas in oil first to soften, then drain on paper towel and set aside.(I usually don't, but i think my mom does.) Prepare soup as directed on the can and set aside and ready with a good size laddle.
Put a little soup on the bottom of your casserole dish(just enough to coat the bottom), you can also spray a little non-stick spray then the soup.

Start layering... Tortillas, Chicken, Green Chile, Cheese, and enough soup to wet it all(we all hate DRY enchiladas) Repeat until you reach the top. You can use as much or as little as you want of each ingerdient. I usually have a pretty robust layer of each ingredient.....I use TONS of Chicken and Chili. Top casserole with cheese and additional green chile.

Bake at 350 degrees F for about 30 minutes, Sometimes Longer.....you'll figure it out

Let it set for a while after you pull it from the oven, if not it will be runny(is that how you spell it?)

Hope you enjoy.....

I grew up in SF and lived in LC for a while. LC is where I first had rolled enchiladas, as well! My mom spelled runny that way. Works for me. This is a very good recipe. It was quick to prepare and I made a double batch. The leftovers were better the next day! Thanks, Robert!

This is the way I have made them for 30 years now!!! Santa Fe style is the only way to go....Santa Fe Blue is my fav. Grew up in Portales/Clovis/Roswell. Utah doesnt even KNOW what Green chile is!!! We would be in ABQ if not for the military!!!
