Ingredients:




-----------------------------------SAUCE-----------------------------------


   1/2 c  Onions, chopped


     2 tb Butter


     2 tb Flour


 1 1/2 c  Water


   1/2 tb Stock, chicken, powdered


     4 oz Cream, sour





---------------------------------ENCHILADAS---------------------------------


     1 c  Chicken, cooked; chopped


     1 c  Cheese, cheddar, shredded


   1/2 cn Green chilies; drained


     1 oz Pimientos, sliced


   1/4 ts Chili powder


     6 lg Tortillas, flour


   1/4 c  Cheese, cheddar, shredded





 Sauce: Cook onion in butter until tender. Stir in flour, water and


 bouillon; cook and stir until sauce thickens and bouillon dissolves. Remove


 from heat; stir in sour cream.


 


 Preheat oven to 350.  Combine chicken, cheese, chilies, pimientos, chili


 powder, and enough sauce to moisten; mix well. Dip each tortilla into sauce


 to soften; fill each with equal portions of chicken mixture and roll up.


 Arrange in a lightly greased 13x9" baking dish; spoon remaining sauce over


 enchiladas.  Sprinkle with cheese and parsley.  Bake 25 minutes, or until


 bubbly.


 


 Serve with additional sour cream, if desired.


 


 Sylvia's comments: I've never tried making enchiladas before, and was


 surprised and delighted at how easy they were. The sauce was blah and


 didn't suit the enchiladas at all, but I have lots of sauce recipes! So I'm


 going to make it again, substituting some other sauces for this one. Also,


 I left this sitting in the fridge two days before baking it, with no


 negative result except it took longer than 25 minutes to get it hot.
