Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Place a wire rack on a baking sheet.

Pour a thin layer of enchilada sauce into the bottom of a casserole dish.
Place shredded chicken in a bowl, sprinkle enchilada seasoning over chicken; toss to combine. Place 3 tablespoons chicken along center of each enchilada. Sprinkle with 1 1/2 tablespoons cheese. Roll up to form enchiladas. Place enchiladas seam side down in the casserole dish. Top with remaining enchilada sauce and sprinkle evenly with cheese. Cover with aluminum foil.
