I call these "To Each His Own" because guests can literally pick up his/her own enchilada and take a bite. This dish is the perfect replacement for the same old nachos at your Super Bowl Party.

This recipe has just a few ingredients and easy to follow directions. Your friend's will think you worked all day in the kitchen to make these decadent little bites.

Ingredients:

3 poached chicken breasts, shredded (or skinless rotisserie chicken)

16 ounces shredded Mexican blend cheese

16 ounces red enchilada sauce

18 ounce package wonton wrappers

1 teaspoon crushed garlic

1/2 lime

Cilantro, salsa and sour cream for garnish

Directions:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Spray 24 muffin cups with cooking spray.

  • Warm enchilada sauce over low heat in small saucepan.

  • Add crushed garlic and juice of 1/2 lime.

  • Remove from heat.

  • Place one wonton wrapper in the bottom of each muffin cup. Pour about 1 tablespoon of chicken in cup. Top with 1 teaspoon of cheese and 1 tablespoon of sauce. Repeat the layers starting with a wonton wrapper, chicken, cheese, and sauce. Make 3 layers pushing down to make room as you go.

  • Bake for 15-18 minutes until lightly golden brown.

  • Top with salsa, sour cream and cilantro, along with your other favorites like pickled jalapeno, black olives or diced green onion.

*Don't want to make another chicken dish? Try shredded skirt steak for beef enchiladas or skip the meat to make cheese enchiladas.
