Directions:
Heat canola oil in a small skillet over medium-high heat. Fry tortillas for about 15- 20 seconds. Place tortillas on a paper towels lined plate to drain.
Heat 1 tablespoon canola oil in separate skillet over medium heat. Add onions and jalapenos and saute for 1 minute. Add cooked chicken, 1 can of the green chilies, and 1/2 teaspoon paprika. Stir together. Add 1/2 cup chicken broth and stir. Add cream and stir, when mixture begins to bubble, turn off and remove from heat.
In a medium sauce pan, melt butter and add in flour. Whisk together and cook over medium heat for one minute. Pour in 1 1/2 cups chicken broth. Whisk together and cook for another minute or two. Stir in the other can of chilies. Reduce heat, then stir in sour cream. Add cheeses and stir to melt. Add 1/2 teaspoon paprika, cumin and cayenne pepper.
To assemble, spoon chicken mixture on top of tortillas, one by one. Top with plenty of cheese and roll up. Place seam side down in a 9 x 13 casserole dish.
Pour cheese mixture all over the top of the tortillas. Top with extra cheese if you’d like, then bake at 350 degrees for 40 minutes. Sprinkle generously with chopped cilantro.
Serve with picante sauce, if desired.
