Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a medium-sized baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
  2. Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Cook in a skillet over medium heat for 6-7 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.
  3. Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes, then shred into bite-sized pieces.
  4. Spread a thin layer of enchilada sauce on each tortilla, then add shredded chicken and cheese.
  5. Roll each tortilla tightly, tuck in the sides, and place seam-side down in the baking dish.
  6. Cover the roll-ups with remaining enchilada sauce and cheese, then bake for about 20 minutes until bubbly and golden.
  7. Allow to cool for a few minutes, then serve drizzled with sour cream and topped with jalapeños.
