Serves: 12 enchiladas (6 servings, 2 enchiladas each)
 
Ingredients
Hatch Chile Salsa:
  • 2 hatch chiles, stems removed
  • 6 roma tomatoes
  • 1 jalapeno, stem removed
  • ½ bulb garlic, unpeeled
  • ¼ onion, left in large chunks
  • 10 sprigs cilantro
  • juice of ½ time
  • ¼ tsp salt
Enchiladas:
  • 14 oz white meat rotisserie chicken (skin removed), shredded
  • ⅓ cup nonfat plain Greek yogurt
  • ⅔ cup + ½ cup hatch chile salsa, divided
  • 8 oz monterey jack cheese, shredded and divided
  • 12 (6-inch) flour tortillas
Instructions
  1. To make the hatch chile salsa, preheat grill to high heat. Once hot, add hatch chiles, tomatoes, jalapeno, garlic, and onion, grilling 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, to char on all sides. Remove from grill and allow to cool slightly. Combine hatch chiles, tomatoes, jalapeno, peeled garlic, and onion, along with the cilantro, lime juice, and salt in a blender; puree until smooth.
  2. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  3. Spread ⅓ cup hatch chile sauce on the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish; set aside.
  4. In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, yogurt, ⅔ cup hatch chile salsa, and 4 ounces shredded monterey jack; mix well. Distribute the chicken filling (about 1½ ounces) into each of 12 tortillas and roll to create enchiladas; place seam side down in the prepared baking dish and repeat with remaining tortillas.
  5. Top prepared enchiladas with reserved ½ cup hatch chile salsa, spreading over each enchilada. Sprinkle with remaining 4 ounces shredded monterey jack cheese.
  6. Bake enchiladas for 20-25 minutes or until bubbly, hot, and slightly golden brown. Serve immediately.
