Method
 

Steps
  1. Begin by carefully removing the meat from your rotisserie chicken and shred it into bite-sized pieces.
  2. In a medium saucepan, melt butter and whisk in flour to create a roux. Gradually stir in chicken broth, followed by sour cream, green chilies, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  3. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spoon shredded chicken and cheese into each tortilla, roll tightly, and place seam-side down in a greased baking dish.
  4. Pour the white sauce over the enchiladas, top with remaining cheese, and bake for 25–30 minutes.
  5. Once baked, let cool slightly and garnish with cilantro, jalapeños, or lime wedges before serving.
