Ingredients
Scale
2 cups cooked shredded chicken
1 cup cream cheese, softened
1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or Monterey Jack)
1 cup green enchilada sauce
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
Salt and pepper to taste
8 low-carb tortillas
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large bowl, mix together the shredded chicken, cream cheese, half of the shredded cheese, sour cream, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
Spread a thin layer of green enchilada sauce on the bottom of a baking dish.
Fill each low-carb tortilla with the chicken mixture and roll them up tightly.
Place the rolled tortillas seam-side down in the baking dish.
Pour the remaining green enchilada sauce over the top of the tortillas.
Sprinkle the remaining shredded cheese on top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Let cool for a few minutes before serving.

These enchiladas can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator before baking.
Serve with avocado or a side salad for a complete meal.
