For a richer flavor, use Monterey Jack or a blend of cheeses instead of Cheddar. Add a can of drained and rinsed black beans to the chicken mixture for extra heartiness. If you prefer a milder flavor, use mild green chiles instead of the jalapeño salsa. Make ahead: Assemble the enchiladas and refrigerate them for up to 24 hours before baking. Add an extra 10-15 minutes to the baking time if baking from cold.
