8 flour tortillas (8-inch)
-
1/3 cup grated cheddar cheese

Directions
FILLING:
Heat 2 Tbsp olive oil in medium frying pan. Add diced chicken, diced onion, and 2 Tbsp cumin. Stir regularly until chicken is fully cooked. Reduce heat to low, add tomatoes. Cook on low for 3-4 minutes, remove from heat.
ENCHILADA SAUCE:
While chicken is cooking, heat a medium saucepan on medium-high. Add 3 Tbsp olive oil. Once oil is hot, add flour and whisk. Add entire jar of The Brothery Chicken Bone Broth, whisk to ensure there are no lumps of flour. Add 2 Tbsp cumin, stir regularly until sauce thickens, 4-5 minutes. Remove from heat. Stir sour cream and chiles into the enchilada sauce.
ASSEMBLY:
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Pour 3/4 of enchilada sauce into empty baking dish. Lay tortillas on flat surface. Spread refried beans on each. Distribute enchilada filling evenly between tortillas, and roll tightly. Lay rolled tortillas in baking dish in the enchilada sauce. Top with remaining enchilada sauce.
BAKING:
Bake enchiladas for 15 minutes. Remove from oven and add shredded cheese in an even layer on top. Bake for an additional 10 minutes. For crispier cheese, finish by broiling on high for 2-3 minutes.
