    Amazing. I've tried over 5 different enchilada recipes and this is by far the best one. Super cheesy, great flavor. Green sauce is fantastic! I used about half the cilantro because I'm not a huge fan, but still had tons of flavor. Highly recommend!

    The Enchiladas didn't have a whole lot of flavor. I was very disappointed in that fact. I had to keep adding extra seasoning and it still was bland. I used Basmati rice and it was great with the lime and the cilantro.

    I made this dish for my family, and it was a huge success.. However, I did cheat a bit with the enchiladas Instead of making the green sauce, I used a jar of organic salsa verde, and like I said it was absolutely fantastic!! The rice I make all the time with other dishes, it is easy and so flavorful.

    What I think some of the "authentic" Mexican cooks need to realize while complaining about the recipes using mozzerella cheese is the "authentic" queso seco isn't readily available to hicktown, USA. I live in a very small town in mid PA. My husband who is 100% Mexican has looked high and low for "authentic" chorizo, queso, you name it.....no where to be found. I'm not fond of the idea of ordering meats and perishables online and not knowing what you're going to receive in the end. So, suck it up, use what's on hand and deal with it. The seasonings can be changed up to suit anyone's taste....and I can bet not everyone's abuela cooks the same.

    If you cook the chicken all the way, then doesn't baking it in the over for another 20 minutes overcook it?

    This recipe really caught my eye. When I was making the sauce, tomatillas, chicken broth .. it was too liquidy and coming out of the food processor. My husband suggested I try the blender. When I put the mixture in the blender, the little cap at the center of the lid fell into the blender just as I hit the on button. Although I was quick to turn off the machine, the damage was done, there were plastic shards in the enchilada sauce. Well I didn?t want to throw all that out ? I removed what I thought was all of the plastic bits ? and didn?t tell my dinner guests (my husband and daughter about the mishap.

    Every bite of enchilada had plastic in it. It was so crunchy, not edible.

    My husband acused me of trying to kill him.

    I will try the recipe again though - when I get a new blender.

    I'm giving it four stars, because the enchilada sauce, was pretty tasty.

    I just saw this show for the first time and I couldn?t believe my ears. ?Mexican food?? Are you Kidding me!!! Every time this poor lady took a bite you could tell she wanted to say, ?These are nothing like Abuelas?? First of all, there is no need to make your corn tortilla soft by frying them in oil, and then getting your hands all over them when completing the next step of filling them. Yuk! All you have to do is warm them up a bit on a flat skillet (comal in Spanish. The lady said ?Oh, yeah, that?s the step I was missing.? Abuela missed it too, believe me. Secondly, why would your Abuela add mozzarella cheese on her enchiladas when there is a wonderful ?Mexican? cheese to choose from which we call ?queso seco?. This cheese is usually added after the enchilada has been fried a bit in oil. I use very little oil. Also, what happened to all of those savory chiles that are well known to you Texans? Ask your Abuelita, I?m sure she knows. The ingredients I?m sure taste great all together, but I feel very bad for that woman and her father who had to taste these enchiladas and then say they were just like ?Abuelas?. Some of you have said you loved them, but for God?s sake don?t call this ?Authentic? Mexican food.

    I followed all of the directions for this recipe and I did not enjoy it at all. Lacked flavor and was very dry in texture. I will not make this recipe again!
