Sweet Chili Chicken Enchiladas


Major curiosity prompted me to try this recipe. I know I've tried a lot of enchilada recipes, but this was Asian Mexican fusion! Curiosity killed the cat...

The basic elements of the recipe were all very simple. I cooked my chicken and made the sauce.


Then came the trouble. The chicken I bought was extremely difficult to shred. I swear...I bought Arnold Schwarzenegger in chicken breast form. Ugh. After I finally managed to shred it, I was pretty convinced the recipe would be a fail.

I forgot to get a picture of the enchiladas before they went into the oven, but this is what they looked like coming out of the oven:

The end result of these was underwhelming. They weren't great, and they weren't terrible. Baking them did help the tough chicken, but I still didn't feel like they were anything special. To me, they were just a little sweeter than your standard enchilada. I didn't taste anything distinctly Asian. 2 stars.
