<!-- /seo -->This recipe is a great way of using up leftovers. It came about because I needed to use up a ([[frozen]]) carton of Waitrose green Thai [[chicken]] soup and also needed a photograph of [[enchiladas]]. <br />
<br />
The ingredients were those to hand so you could easily meddle with them.<br />
<br />
'''If you are not using a spicy soup, then add a few finely chopped chillies (to taste) and either a can of chicken soup or some chicken stock that has been thickened with a tablespoon of flour.'''<br />
