Chicken Enchiladas with Whipping Cream

This is a little different than your standard enchiladas . This is a crowd pleaser with kids because they are mild.
 

1 Tablespoon Butter
1 teaspoon taco seasoning ( optional)
1 onion
1 (4-oz.) can green chili's
1 (8-oz) package Cream Cheese

add 3 1/2 cups COOKED diced chicken to the cheese , chilis and onions
 
 
(8) 8 inch flour tortillas
 
 
Spoon 2 to 3 tablespoons of mixture onto each tortilla and pace seam side down in greased 9x13 casserole dish. You can put one in the microwave and heat it for a few seconds and it helps with breaking when you fold them. I really didn't care they are gonna be covered with cheese and cream anyway.
 
 
 
16 ounce Mexican style 4 cheese blend
Pour 2 cups whipping cream over the top evenly




Bake 350 degrees for 45 minutes
I usually cover this and remove the foil the last 10 minutes if you want the cheese to brown a little.
