If you have noticed, I’m having a love affair with one pan meals! Skillet Chicken Enchilada Bake is about as fast as any human can make a really good dish.
This meal takes you only 30 minutes or less to make but it will taste like you have been slaving over the stove for hours! I love using Rotisserie chicken because they are so flavorful but take down the prep time.
