**Easy Chicken Enchiladas Verde**

**Ingredients:**
– 2 cups shredded cooked chicken
– 1 cup green enchilada sauce
– 1 1/2 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese
– 1/2 cup sour cream
– 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
– 1 can diced green chilies, drained
– 8 small corn tortillas
– Salt and pepper to taste

**Instructions:**
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a baking dish.
2. In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, green enchilada sauce, 1 cup of shredded cheese, sour cream, chopped cilantro, and diced green chilies. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Mix well until all the ingredients are combined.
3. Take a corn tortilla and spoon a generous amount of the chicken mixture onto the center. Roll it up and place it seam side down in the prepared baking dish. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.
4. Once all the enchiladas are lined up in the baking dish, pour any remaining sauce over the top. Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of shredded cheese evenly over the enchiladas.
5. Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.
6. After 20 minutes, remove the foil and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and slightly golden brown.
7. Once done, remove the enchiladas from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.
8. Garnish with extra cilantro, a dollop of sour cream, or a squeeze of lime juice if desired.
