Enchiladas Suizas Con Pollo is a classic Mexican dish that is packed with flavor and energy. The name of this dish, Enchiladas Suizas, means Swiss-style enchiladas. It is believed that the name came from the color of the dish - the cream-colored cheese and sour cream resemble the Swiss Alps. Enchiladas Suizas Con Pollo is a dish made by rolling stuffed tortillas with a mixture of cooked chicken and sour cream, topped with tomato sauce and Swiss cheese.
