2 cloves garlic
2 cups chopped cooked chicken or

Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

Depending on your preference, use mild or hot bottled salsa for these lime-spiced enchiladas.

Heat oven to 350 degrees. Spray rectangular pan, 11 X 7 X 1-1/2 inches, with nonstick cooking spray. Place taco sauce, cilantro, parsley, lime juice and garlic in blender or food processor. Cover and blend on high speed about 30 seconds or until smooth. Reserve half the mixture.
