Ingredients
  

  • 1 (16 ounce) package frozen hash brown potatoes
  • 1 cup diced cooked ham
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 (4.5 ounce) can diced green chile peppers
  • 1 ½  cups shredded Cheddar cheese, divided
  • 1 (28 ounce) can green chile enchilada sauce
  • 8 (10 inch) flour tortillas

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it's at the right temperature for baking.
  • In a medium skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of oil over medium-high heat. Add the hash browns and ham, cooking until browned. Stir in the diced green chilies and ½ cup of Cheddar cheese, and cook until the cheese melts, creating a flavorful, cheesy filling for the enchiladas.
  • Spread a thin layer of enchilada sauce on the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish. Dip each tortilla into the remaining sauce, then fill with the potato-ham mixture. Roll each tortilla tightly and place them seam-side down in the dish. Pour the remaining sauce over the top, sprinkle with the remaining cheese, and cover the dish with foil to keep everything moist while baking.
  • Bake the covered dish in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes. Then, remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 10 minutes, or until the top is lightly golden and bubbly. Serve hot for the best flavor and texture.
