In a large saucepan, heat cream and dissolve bouillion cubes in it. Set aside. In a small skillet, heat about 1/3 cup of oil and dip each tortilla in hot boil, turning once, for a few second to soften. Drain on paper towels. Assemble Enchiladas: Dip a tortilla in the cream mixture. Place on a flat surface and put two to three tablespoons chicken mixture in the center and roll up. Place rolled tortilla, seam-side down in 13x9 inch baking dish. Continue with remaining tortillas. Pour all remaining cream mixture over enchiladas and cover with grated cheese. Bake in a preheated 350 degree F oven for 25-30 minutes, until cheese is melted and browned. | |||
