Okay so this recipe has been literally 2 years in the making, but from all the taste testers we have a winner! This thermomix ranch chicken enchiladas is a delicious dinner! Don't be frightened by the ingredients list, once you have it laid out it's such a simple dish & you can be making it while the chicken is cooking!
With all the testing that has been done on this recipe you would think that I would end up resenting cooking this, but the family have enjoyed it every time! Albeit we are a crazy family :D !!!
This is another great left overs recipe (if you're lucky to have any!) and if it freezes well.
The ranch dressing is also a great addition to your salad dressing list - it's a beautiful flavour combo!
Another great chicken "coating", mix the ranch blend and the taco blend, coat chicken and cook - DELICIOUS! :)
