Saute tomatillos with chiles, onion and garlic until cooked, about 5 minutes. Blend until smooth, add salt and pepper to taste, then return to pot and simmer until thick, about 15 minutes. Meanwhile, fry tortillas in a separate pan in olive oil.
To plate enchiladas, submerge one fried tortilla in the tomatillos sauce until soft. Set tortilla on a plate, then add chicken and roll into an enchilada. Add more sauce on top, then garnish with sour cream, cheese, lettuce and fresh onion.
Continue with remaining ingredients, then serve with Vortex Cellars Tempranillo!
