Green chicken enchiladas: these take a while to prepare, but they are more than worth it.
1 pkg of small corn tortillas, about 6 inches in diameter
1 whole rotisserie chicken from the store, or a bunch of leftover bbq chicken, leftover thanksgiving turkey, etc
2 cans green enchilada sauce. I use the stuff with the yellow label. I'm at work, so I dunno what it's called atm
Sour cream, or low fat sour cream
1-2 cup pkg shredded cheese
Chopped onion, optional
Start by shredding the chicken, probably by hand. Try to leave out the skin. Then, mix the chicken with enough sour cream to make it stick together and pretty easy to mix. Add about half of the cheese, and the onion if you want it. Once that is mixed, pour most of a can of green sauce in a baking pan. Microwave a tortilla for 20 seconds, place it in the pan and coat it in sauce, fill it with chicken mixture like a mini burrito, and roll it. Continue that process, adding sauce when necessary, until you're out of chicken mixture. It should be about 14 enchiladas, and 4 should be enough for one person, even with no sides. If you need more, you're more man than me haha. Add more sauce on top, and the rest of the cheese. Bake at 400 for about 25 min until the cheese is turning brown. They are sort of difficult to remove, and may end up as enchilada soup on your plate, but that doesn't make them any less tasty
