  • Total Time: 40 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked chicken breast, sliced or shredded
  • 1 cup corn — canned, grilled, or frozen Mexican blend
  • ½ cup plain Greek yogurt or sour cream
  • ¼ cup light mayo
  • ½ tsp chili powder
  • ¼ tsp cumin
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • ½ cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • 8 small whole-wheat tortillas or low-carb wraps
  • 1 cup enchilada sauce (red or green)
  • Optional toppings: fresh cilantro, lime wedges, Cotija cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a baking dish.
  2. In a large bowl, combine cooked chicken, corn, Greek yogurt, mayo, chili powder, cumin, and half of the cheese. Season with salt and pepper and mix well.
  3. Fill each tortilla with about ¼ cup of the mixture, roll tightly, and place seam-side down in the baking dish.
  4. Pour enchilada sauce over the top and sprinkle with remaining cheese.
  5. Cover with foil and bake for 20 minutes, then uncover and bake 5–10 minutes more until cheese is golden and bubbly.
  6. Garnish with cilantro, lime, or Cotija cheese. Serve hot.

Notes

Use rotisserie chicken for faster prep. Swap Greek yogurt with sour cream for a richer flavor. For a spicier version, add jalapeños or cayenne pepper.
