👨‍🍳 Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.

Cook and stir chicken, onion, green bell pepper, garlic, cream cheese, and 1 cup Monterey Jack cheese in hot oil until the cheese melts, about 5 minutes.

Stir tomato sauce, chili powder, parsley, oregano, salt, and black pepper into the chicken mixture.

Divide mixture evenly into tortillas, roll the tortillas around the filling, and arrange in a baking dish.

Cover with enchilada sauce and remaining 1 cup Monterey Jack cheese.

Bake in preheated oven until cheese topping melts and begins to brown, about 15 minutes.
