Honey Lime Enchiladas


6 Tbsp Honey
5 Tbsp Lime Juice (or the juice of 1 large lime)
1 Tbsp Chili Powder
1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
1 lb Chicken, cooked and shredded
8-10 Flour Tortillas
1 lb Monterrey Jack Cheese, shredded
16 oz Green Enchilada Sauce
1 Cup Heavy Cream
Chopped Green Onions
Chopped Olives

Mix the first four ingredients and toss with shredded chicken. Let it marinate for at least 1/2 hour. Pour about 1/2 cup enchilada sauce on the bottom of a 9x13 baking dish. Fill flour tortillas with chicken, green onions, olives and shredded cheese. Mix the remaining enchilada sauce with the cream and leftover marinade. Pour sauce on top of the enchiladas and sprinkle with remaining cheese, green onions, and olives. Bake at 350 for 30 minutes or until brown and crispy on top.

It is impossible to describe how muy delicioso these enchiladas are! Enjoy!
