Six Sisters' Stuff: Honey Lime Chicken Enchiladas

When Chris had his appendectomy, his cousin and his wife brought us these. They are the best! I begged her for the recipe and she told me it comes from Six Sisters' Stuff. Their mobile website isn't working and since I'm NOT going to lose this recipe I am posting it here.

MARINADE:
6 T honey
5 T lime juice
1 T chili powder
1/2 t garlic powder

ENCHILADAS:
1 lb chicken cooked and shredded (about 4 chicken breasts)
8-10 flour tortillas
1 lb Monterrey Jack cheese, shredded
16 oz green enchilada sauce
1 c heavy cream

DIRECTIONS:
Whisk the first four ingredients and toss with shredded chicken in a Ziplock.

Let it marinate in the fridge for at least half an hour but preferable a half day or so.

Pour about 1/2 c enchilada sauce on the bottom of a 9x13 pan.

Fill the tortillas with chicken and a little bit of shredded cheese.

Roll them up and put them in the pan.

Add rest of the marinade to the enchilada sauce and mix in heavy cream (if you don't have heavy cream you can easily make some using 2/3 cup milk and 1/3 cup melted butter).

Pour mixture over tortillas and then cover the enchiladas with cheese.

Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes until cheese is melted.
