  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Coat a 9x12-inch brownie pan with cooking spray.

  2. 2

    Warm olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the chicken, bacon, and roasted garlic. Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Add the green onions and stir.

  3. 3

    Combine the ranch dressing and sour cream in a small bowl. Take the chicken mixture off the heat and stir in just enough of the ranch mixture to lightly coat the chicken.

  4. 4

    Hold 1 tortilla and place 2 tablespoons of the chicken mixture across the center. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of the Cheddar-Monterey Jack cheese blend over the chicken and roll up the tortilla. Set the filled tortilla seam-side down against the short end of the pan so it won’t unroll. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling until the pan is tightly packed with enchiladas.

  5. 5

    Pour enchilada sauce over the filled tortillas to cover them without soaking them. Generously sprinkle the remaining Cheddar-Monterey Jack cheese blend over the top.

  6. 6

    Bake in the preheated oven until the top is bubbly, about 15 minutes.

How easyChef Pro scores recipes and products

easyChef Pro analyzes up to 41 nutrients using data sourced from USDA and other verified food databases. Its scoring method uses the nutrients relevant to nutrition quality, calorie density, processing level, and your selected health goal. Recipes and food products get a health score from 0 to 100, calculated using consistent rules instead of being estimated by AI. The same nutrition data, serving size and health goal will produce the same result.

The calculation evaluates nutrients, calorie density, processing level, and how well the food supports your selected health goal. Protein, fiber, vitamins, minerals and other beneficial nutrients can strengthen the score. High amounts of sodium, saturated fat, added sugar and other nutrients may lower it.

Your health goal also matters. easyChef Pro evaluates recipes and products across six health areas and adjusts their importance for your selected goal. This means the same food may be a better fit for one health goal than another.

For recipes, changing an ingredient, quantity or serving size changes the nutrition and may change the score. Remix the recipe in easyChef Pro to calculate fresh nutrition and scores for the version you actually make. Product scores are based on the nutrition and serving information associated with that specific product.
