Honey Lime Enchiladas

We just tried this recipe a few days ago... first enchilada recipe that I've ever liked! It was super good! Even Abby liked it.
Serves 3

1.5 lbs chicken, cooked and shredded (I put mine in a crockpot for a couple of hours on high with chicken broth, cooks it so its really easy to shred)
1/3 cup honey
1/4 cup lime juice
1 Tbsp chili powder
1/2 tsp garlic powder
2 (10 oz) cans green enchilada sauce
equal parts mixed together of:
mozzarella cheese, shredded
cheddar cheese, shredded
flour tortillas

1. Mix together honey, lime, chili powder, and garlic powder and then add to shredded pork or chicken. Let the sauce soak into the meat for about 30 minutes.
2. Lightly spray pan (I used a regular 9x13) with non-stick baking spray. Pour green enchilada sauce into pans to coat the entire bottom. 
3. Fill tortillas with shredded meat and desired amount of cheese. Roll and place in dish.
4. Pour remainder of sauce over enchiladas and sprinkle more cheese on top – don’t be stingy!
5. Bake uncovered at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. Then turn on broiler and place enchiladas nearer the top of oven. Let it broil until cheese is slightly brown and crispy (it only takes a couple of minutes).

I found this recipe at this site.
