BBQ Chicken Enchiladas

I already have two great low carb chicken enchiladas recipes on the blog – traditional chicken enchiladas with a red sauce and creamy white chicken enchiladas. Both are super tasty but not as fun as these BBQ chicken enchiladas. What I like about BBQ chicken enchiladas is that the flavor is more mainstream which is perfect for kids or picky family members. The sweet BBQ sauce tempers the bitterness of ground chiles in the enchilada sauce.
Low Carb Enchilada Sauce and Keto BBQ Sauce Options

For this recipe, I use sugar-free BBQ sauce and my homemade low carb enchilada sauce. The enchilada sauce is easy to make and has a great authentic flavor. If you want to cheat and use enchilada sauce from a can, make sure to count the carbs. Use your favorite premade BBQ sauce, (mine is Kinders Zero Sugar BBQ Sauce) or use homemade keto BBQ sauce. Alternately, mix leftover BBQ chicken (or pulled pork!) and pour enchilada sauce over the top.
