My husband lived in Mexico for several years and loved Enchiladas Suizas (Swiss Enchiladas). I found this recipe, and he said that it tastes just like the ones his 'mamita' made him.

- prepared green Chili salsa: 1 can (7 ounce can)

In a bowl, mix together chicken, chilies, and salsa.
-
In a wide, shallow dish stir together salt and whipping cream.
-
Heat oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Fry each tortilla for a few seconds, until it blisters, and immediately dip into cream and salt.

Fill fried tortillas with chicken mixture. Roll and place flap side down in a baking dish. Pour remaining cream over tortillas, and sprinkle with cheese.

Bake, uncovered, in a preheated oven until cheese has melted, about 15 to 20 minutes.
