Recipe Instructions

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
Rub chicken breasts on both sides with olive oil, then sprinkle with fajita seasoning, salt, and pepper. Place on the prepared baking sheet.
Step 3
Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 35 to 40 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove from the oven and allow to cool. Keep oven on.
Step 4
Shred chicken, discarding any extra fat or tough bits. Place in a large bowl with nacho dip, onion, 1 can chile peppers, cream cheese, jalapeno, cumin, garlic powder, chili powder, oregano, and salt to taste; mix to combine.
Step 5
Combine condensed soup, remaining can of green chile peppers, milk, and Cheddar cheese in a pan over medium heat. Stir to combine and cook until sauce is heated through, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer 1/4 cup sauce to the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish. Leave remaining sauce in the pan.
Step 6
Distribute filling evenly amongst tortillas, then sprinkle 2 tablespoons Mexican cheese on each. Transfer enchiladas to the baking dish and pour remaining sauce over top. Sprinkle with remaining Mexican cheese.
Step 7
Return to the oven and bake until cheese is hot and bubbly, about 20 minutes. Serve hot.
