Cook Time:20 minutes mins
- 2 cups of shredded chicken
- 10 ounce can of enchiladas sauce
- 4 ounces cream cheese
- 1.5 cups of your favorite salsa
- 4 ounce can of chopped green chilies undrained

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Place the cream cheese and salsa in a large saucepan over medium heat. Stir until the cream cheese has melted and blended with the salsa.
Add the shredded chicken and green chilies to the pan. Stir to combine and remove from heat.
