These enchiladas are stuffed with flavorful chicken and avocado, then smothered in a delicious green mole sauce. This recipe requires you first to make another recipe from my site, mole verde. It’s actually quite simple to make, but as with any mole, requires a long list of ingredients so I’ve kept these two recipes separate to avoid any confusion or intimidation. Trust me, these are enchiladas that you can easily make. The result is something straight from an upscale Mexican restaurant. This recipe is a copycat of the most amazing enchiladas from The Red Iguana in Salt Lake City. If you ever drive through you absolutely must stop in! Until then, give these a try at home. I promise, you’ll feel like you were joining me for dinner in Utah!
These look too good! I blog about global cuisine but I have yet to make a mole sauce. I'm going to try yours. Can't wait – thanks Rachel!
I need these enchiladas in my life! They look sooo good – I love the mole sauce! I've really missed having access to such authentic Mexican food. Since l moved to the UK I've had to start making my own at home so this is going on the list!
