Enchilada Pasta Sauce



Enchilada Pasta Sauce (from this recipe):
  • 2-3 chicken breasts, cooked and shredded
  • 2 Tbsp olive oil
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 1 (4 oz) can diced green chiles
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2 tsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 2 (10 oz) cans green enchilada sauce
  • 1 (10 oz) can red enchilada sauce
  • 2 cups shredded Mexican cheese
  • 1 cup sour cream
Heat the oil in a deep frying pan. Cook onions for 3-5 minutes; add garlic and cook another 3-5 minutes. Add chicken, green chilis, cumin, chili powder, salt, and enchilada sauce.Let sauce simmer for about 8-10 minutes.
Add cheese and stir until the cheese is melted and heated through. Reduce heat to low. Add sour cream, but DO NOT bring to a boil. It will cause the sour cream to curdle. Stir until the sour cream is mixed well and heated through. 
The sauce is now ready to eat or store. I prepped all mine for freezing so I can use it with pasta later. You can then serve the pasta with avocado, green onion, black olives, tomatoes, sour cream, or whatever you’d like.
