One of my family’s favorite enchiladas is sour cream chicken enchiladas. They love that creamy chicken filling topped with that white creamy sauce.

I love them too, but I also like an enchilada with chicken and a traditional red sauce. The recipe I am sharing today brings the best of both of those enchiladas together into one.

These enchiladas have a beautiful creamy chicken filling made with rich cream cheese, sautéed onion, salsa, and cumin. Then the enchiladas get coated with a traditional red sauce along with a sprinkling of cheese. Everyone was on board for these cream cheese chicken enchiladas. These are definitely going into our regular meal rotation.
