Equipment

  • oven
  • Large bowl
  • Baking dish

Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups shredded rotisserie chicken 420 g
  • 1 bottle buffalo sauce 23 ounces, divided (about 3 cups homemade)
  • 4 ounces cream cheese softened
  • 3 tablespoons dry ranch seasoning mix
  • 1 cup Monterey Jack cheese shredded, divided
  • 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese shredded, divided
  • 8 large flour tortillas
  • ranch dressing for garnish
  • green onions chopped for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • In a large bowl, combine the chicken, ¼ cup of buffalo sauce, cream cheese, ranch seasoning mix, ½ cup of Monterey Jack cheese, and ½ cup of sharp cheddar cheese. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly distributed. Set aside.
  • Pour 1 cup of buffalo sauce into the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish. Spread evenly.
  • Working with one tortilla at a time, place about ½ cup of the chicken mixture onto the center of each tortilla. Wrap the tortilla tightly around the filling, tucking in the sides as you roll. Place the rolled tortilla seam-side down in the baking dish. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and chicken mixture.
  • Pour the remaining buffalo sauce evenly over the rolled enchiladas in the baking dish. Sprinkle the top with the remaining cheese.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is hot and bubbly. (Broil the enchiladas for an extra 2-3 minutes if you prefer the cheese to be golden brown.)
  • Garnish with a drizzle of ranch dressing and chopped green onions. Serve warm.

Notes

These enchiladas are loaded with Buffalo flavor – if you would prefer less buffalo sauce you can decrease it by half in the recipe.
