Scatter 1/2 of the chicken, 1/2 of the chopped red onion, and 1 cup of the cheese over the tortillas. Spoon 1 cup chili sauce over cheese. Cover completely with another 1/3 of the tortillas. Scatter remaining chicken, onions and 1 cup cheese over tortillas; moisten evenly with 1 cup chili sauce. cover with remaining tortillas, then coat tortillas evenly with remaining sauce.

5. Bake in a 400 F. oven until sauce is bubbling at edges, about 15 minutes. Sprinkle remaining cheese on enchiladas and bake until it melts, 2 to 3 minutes.

6. Scatter red onion rings over enchiladas and garnish with ciantro sprigs. Cut into rectangles and serve with a wide spatula. Add salt and sour cream to taste.
