One Pan Sour Cream Chicken Enchilada Skillet recipe made quick and easy in a skillet with corn tortillas pieces, cooked chicken, and a cheesy sauce! Hello, everyone! I’ve been on a one pan dinner rampage lately. I can really get used to this routine of only cleaning up one dish at the end of the night! I honestly use my skillet more than any other pot or pan in my kitchen. I may as well get rid of the other 58392385 that I have just taking up space. Then again, I need a way to boil my pasta… so, there’s that. This One Pan Sour Cream Chicken Enchilada Skillet is honestly one of my favorite Mexican dishes I have made to date and it’s not because it’s all made in one skillet (but that definitely helps). This cheesy deliciousness is a frequently made meal in my house – I’m all about the comfort food for a quick and easy meal.

One of the things I love most about this Chicken Enchilada Skillet is how quickly it comes together. I LOVE enchiladas and these honey lime chicken enchiladas are a family favorite. I don’t always love the monotonous task of rolling them all up before proceeding to bake them. This recipe has the tortillas cooked right into it so you’re getting small bites of it in every forkful. This meal has terrific flavor and is so easy to make.

You can even use leftover chicken to make this even easier on yourself. Feel free to also add spicy seasonings if that is your preference. You will also absolutely love these sour cream chicken enchiladas. They have been a huge hit on my blog for years now!
