Ingredients

• 4  tablespoons  canola oil
• 2  small zucchini, diced
• 1  small red onion, chopped
• 1/2  cup  corn kernels (from 1 ear, or frozen and thawed)
• 1  2- to 2 1/2 pound  rotisserie chicken, meat shredded
• 1 1/2  cups  grated Monterey Jack (6 ounces)
• kosher salt and black pepper
• 12  6-inch corn tortillas
• 1  pound  tomatillos, papery husks removed
• 1  jalapeño, seeded
• 1  cup  fresh cilantro
• 1  tablespoon  fresh lime juice
• 1/2  cup  sour cream (optional)

Directions

1. Heat oven to 400° F. Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat.
2. Add zucchini, onion, and corn and cook, stirring, until onion begins to soften, 3 to 5 minutes.
3. Transfer vegetables to a large bowl. Add chicken, Monterey Jack, 1 teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon pepper. Mix to combine.
4. Wipe out the skillet and heat remaining oil over medium heat. Cook each tortilla until softened, 10 to 15 seconds per side. Transfer to a paper towel–lined plate.
5. Divide chicken mixture among the tortillas, roll them up, and place them in a baking dish, seam-side down. Bake until heated through, 8 to 10 minutes.
6. Meanwhile, in a food processor, pulse the tomatillos, jalapeño, cilantro, lime juice, and ½ teaspoon salt until finely chopped. Serve the enchiladas with the salsa and sour cream, if using.
