Honey Lime Enchiladas


1/3 c honey
1 Tbsp chili powder
1lb chicken, cooked and shredded
1/4 c lime juice
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 c heavy cream
15oz can green enchilada sauce
2 c cheese
12 corn or flour tortillas

In a bowl combine honey, lime juice, chili and garlic powder. Whisk together and add the chicken. Cover with plastic wrap and allow to marinate up to 1hr in fridge.
Prepare tortillas (we like the kind you can cook yourselves) by heating in microwave so they don't crack. Spray 9x13 pan with PAM. In a small bowl combine cream and enchilada sauce. Spread 1/2 of mixture on bottom of pan.
Spoon chicken mixture onto tortillas, cover with cheese, then roll up enchilada style. Repeat until all chicken/tortillas are gone.
Pour remaining sauce over top of enchiladas and sprinkle with cheese.
Bake at 350 for 30-35min

If you want it a little spicier or chunkier, use green taco sauce, medium heat. That made it too hot for the kids, but I liked it!
