For a spicier kick, use hot green chiles or add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the chicken mixture. To prevent tortillas from tearing, warm them slightly in a dry skillet or microwave before dipping in oil. You can assemble the enchiladas ahead of time and bake them just before serving. Cover the dish with foil and refrigerate for up to 24 hours. Add a few extra minutes to the baking time if baking from cold. Feel free to substitute other cheeses like cheddar, Colby Jack, or a Mexican blend.
