Keto Chicken Enchiladas
When we teamed up with Thrive Market to create the ultimate keto enchilada recipe using their amazing products, we didn’t realize we would be making our new favorite keto dinner. These low carb enchiladas are so out of this world it’s blowing our minds. We used Thrive Market’s coconut wraps to take the carbs out of this Mexican classic, and honestly we’ll never go back to corn or flour tortillas in this dish. We’ve been living off of this tangy enchilada sauce over here at Keto Weekly HQ.

DIRECTIONS
Start by heating your olive oil over medium heat in a large sauce pan. Add in onion and garlic and cook down for two minutes.
Then add in all of your sauce seasonings.
Next, add in the 2 cans of diced tomatoes, the tomato paste, chicken broth, and water, and mix all together really well.
Turn the heat to low, cover and simmer for 1 hour. After an hour, use a hand blender to puree. (You can also let it cool a little and put it in a regular blender, or just eat it chunky.)
Place 2 large chicken breasts into a glass cooking dish and season lightly with taco seasoning on the one side that’s facing up. Bake at 400F for 40 minutes. When it’s done, let cool and chop into small chunks.
Take a large baking dish (9x13inch) and cover the bottom with enchilada sauce.
Then assemble your enchiladas by heating each tortilla in the microwave for 10 seconds, then slather one side with a little sauce, add in a row of chicken, and top the chicken with some cheese. Then roll up the tortilla and close it with 2 toothpicks.
Line the enchiladas into the sauced baking dish. Then top with more sauce and layer of shredded cheese over the whole thing.
Bake at 325F for up to 30 mins. Take out and serve hot!
