Let's Get Started
- Remove the stems and seeds from the ancho chilies. Place them in a bowl and cover with hot water. Let them soak for 15 minutes.
- In a blender, combine the soaked ancho chilies, garlic cloves, chopped onion, and a pinch of salt. Blend until smooth to make the ancho chili sauce.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the ancho chili sauce and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Dip each corn tortilla in the ancho chili sauce to coat both sides.
- Fill each tortilla with shredded chicken and Oaxaca cheese. Roll them up and place them seam-side down in a baking dish.
- Pour the remaining ancho chili sauce over the enchiladas.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Garnish with cilantro and serve with sour cream on the side.
