FABULOUS!!!!! One of the best enchilada recipes we've tried. In order to speed assembly we bought a roasted chicken. We added fresh garlic. And we used salsa instead of the tomatillo. (It was just easier to find at the end of the day.) The is already a favorite of ours. This would be good for a crowd for a casual dinner.
