In the heart of the Midwest, where the fields stretch as far as the eye can see, we often find comfort in the warmth of a home-cooked meal. These low carb baked chicken enchiladas are a delightful twist on a classic Mexican dish, perfect for those looking to enjoy the rich flavors without the extra carbs. This recipe brings together the tender, seasoned chicken with the creamy embrace of melted cheese, all wrapped in a low-carb tortilla. It’s a dish that speaks to the soul, reminiscent of family gatherings and the joy of sharing a meal with loved ones.
These enchiladas pair beautifully with a fresh garden salad, perhaps with a tangy vinaigrette to cut through the richness of the cheese. A side of sautéed green beans or roasted Brussels sprouts would add a lovely touch of green to your plate. For a true Midwestern touch, consider serving with a dollop of sour cream and a sprinkle of fresh cilantro on top.
