Experience a burst of flavors tonight with these hearty enchiladas that perfectly blend chicken and vibrant vegetables!

1

Begin by preheating your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius).

2

Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add chopped onions and minced garlic, and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until they become translucent.

3

Next, add diced bell pepper and zucchini to the pan, cooking for another 5-7 minutes until they are tender.

4

While the vegetables are cooking, cook the chicken breasts in a separate pan over medium heat until they are fully cooked, about 7-10 minutes each side. Once cooked, shred the chicken and mix it in with the veggies.

5

In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken and sautéed veggies with cumin, salt, pepper, and half of the cheese.

6

Take a corn tortilla and spoon a generous amount of the chicken and vegetable filling into the center. Roll the tortilla tightly and place it seam-side down in a baking dish. Repeat this process until all tortillas are filled and placed in the dish.

7

Once all enchiladas are arranged in the baking dish, pour enchilada sauce evenly over the top and sprinkle the remaining cheese on top.

8

Cover with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.

9

After 20 minutes, remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

10

Once done, remove from the oven, garnish with chopped cilantro, and serve warm.
