Enchilada Sauce

  • 1 tbsp Gluten Free 1.1 flour
  • 2 tbsp Dairy Free butter
  • 2 1/2 cups chicken stock
  • 2 tbsp chile powder
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 3/4 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika

Smoked Chicken Enchiladas

  • 2 cups smoked chicken, shreddeddddd I seasoned my chicken with taco seasoning and salt and smoked it at 500 degrees for 10 minutes until the internal temperature was 165 degrees.
  • 1/2 cup refried beans
  • 10-15 Gluten Free corn tortillas
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil
  • Toppings: tomatillo salsa, avocado, cilantro

Instructions

Enchilada Sauce

  • Heat a medium sized saucepan over medium heat. Add the butter and flour.
  • Stir until the butter is melted and the flour is beginning to smell slightly nutty.
  • Add the spices and stir until they are fragrant and the chile powder is slightly darker in color.
  • Slowly pour in the chicken stock and continually whisk.
  • Allow the mixture to cook for 10 minutes until it has thickened.
  • Set aside.

Smoked Chicken Enchiladas

  • Preheat oven or smoker to 400 degrees.
  • Heat a skillet over medium heat with the oil.
  • Working one at a time cook the tortillas in the skillet, 1-2 minutes per side.
  • To build your enchiladas, place refried beans down the middle of your tortilla. Top with the chicken. Roll tightly and place into a 9x13 baking dish seam side down.
  • Repeat with the remaining tortillas until all of the filling is gone.
  • Top the enchiladas with the enchilada sauce.
  • Bake or smoke your enchiladas for 10 minutes until the sauce is bubbly.
  • Top enchiladas with your favorite toppings. I like tomatillo salsa, avocado slices, and fresh cilantro.
  • Enjoy!
