Low Carb Chicken Enchiladas
Low carb chicken enchiladas make for a delicious dinner and are perfect for meal prep
Before I started keto, chicken enchiladas were always a meal that I enjoyed. Such basic ingredients but the flavours are out of this world.
I’m calling these low carb chicken enchiladas because they have about 15 net carbs per serving. If you were to use a lower carb tortilla like the unbun untortilla, they would be 10 net carbs each.

Low Carb Chicken Enchiladas Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400ºF. Grease a 9×13-inch glass baking dish or pan.
Combine the cream cheese, 1/4 cup sour cream, 1/4 of the jar of salsa, 1 cup cheddar cheese, 1/2 the sliced green onions, chilli powder and cumin. Add in the shredded chicken.
Spread 1/2 cup of the salsa on the bottom of the baking dish.
Add some of the chicken mixture down the middle of the tortilla and roll. Place seam side down into the baking dish. Do this with the remaining tortillas.
Top the tortillas with the remaining salsa and 1 cup of cheese.
Bake for 20 minutes until heated through and the cheese is bubbly. Top with remaining green onions and serve with sour cream.
Enjoy!
