Making Classic Enchiladas Verdes is straightforward. Follow these steps to create a delicious dish:

1. Prepare the Sauce: In a saucepan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and sauté until translucent. Then, add minced garlic and cook for an additional minute. Stir in the tomatillo sauce, cumin, and salt. Simmer for 5 minutes.

2. Prepare the Fillings: In a bowl, combine the shredded chicken, half of the cheese, and chopped cilantro. Mix well, ensuring everything is evenly distributed.

3. Warm the Tortillas: Heat a dry skillet over medium heat. Slightly warm each corn tortilla in the skillet for a few seconds on each side until pliable. This will prevent them from breaking during assembly.

4. Assemble the Enchiladas: On a flat surface, spoon some of the chicken filling onto each tortilla. Roll tightly and place seam-side down in a greased baking dish.

5. Top with Sauce: Pour the remaining tomatillo sauce over the assembled enchiladas in the baking dish. Sprinkle with the remaining cheese.

6. Bake: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake the enchiladas for 20-25 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

7. Garnish: Once out of the oven, top with optional sour cream, avocado slices, and extra cilantro for enhanced flavors.

8. Serve: Allow to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy over your favorite rice or with some Mexican beans on the side!
