Ingredients

  • 1 can 10 ounces of Old El Paso Red Enchilada Sauce
  • 2 and a half cups of shredded rotisserie chicken from the deli
  • 1 and a half cups of shredded Cheddar cheese
  • 1 package 8 ounces of cream cheese, diced into 1/2-inch cubes
  • 1 package 1 ounce of fajita seasoning mix*
  • 10 Old El Paso flour tortillas 6 inches for soft tacos and fajitas

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 13×9-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
  • Spread 1/4 cup of the enchilada sauce evenly on the bottom of the baking dish.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the chicken, 1 cup of Cheddar cheese, cream cheese, and seasoning mix.
  • Spoon a slightly smaller than 1/2 cup of the mixture onto each tortilla, roll it up tightly, and place seam-side down in the prepared dish.
  • Drizzle the remaining enchilada sauce over the tortillas and sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of Cheddar cheese on top. Cover with foil.
  • Bake for 15 minutes, uncover, and bake for another 15 minutes or until bubbly and lightly browned.

Notes

  • If using taco seasoning mix, use only 2 tablespoons and save the rest for future use. The 2 tablespoons of Old El Paso Taco Seasoning Mix can be used as a substitute for the 1-ounce package of Old El Paso Fajita Seasoning Mix.
  • To make the cream cheese easier to cut into cubes, freeze it for about 10 minutes before using.
