1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. This ensures that your enchiladas will bake evenly.
2. Toss the chicken with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, chili powder, cumin, and smoked paprika. Season generously with kosher salt and pepper. This mixture will infuse the chicken with fantastic flavor, so don't skimp on the seasoning!
3. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned chicken and cook for 4 to 5 minutes per side, or until cooked through. The chicken should be golden brown and juices run clear. Remove it from the skillet and shred it using two forks. This step is crucial for achieving that tender, luscious filling.
4. Add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet. When the oil starts to shimmer, toss in the chopped zucchini and poblano pepper. Sauté until the zucchini is caramelized and tender, which should take about 10 minutes. The veggies should look vibrant and slightly browned, adding depth to the filling.
5. Remove the skillet from heat and combine the shredded chicken with 1/2 cup of salsa verde, 1/2 cup of mango chunks, and the chopped cilantro. Toss gently until everything is well-mixed. The flavors will meld beautifully, creating a delicious filling.
6. To assemble, pour 1/2 cup of salsa verde onto the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish. This prevents the tortillas from sticking and adds extra flavor.
7. Spoon a generous amount of the chicken mixture down the center of each warmed tortilla. Tuck and roll them up, then place seam-side down into the baking dish. Make sure to fit them snugly together to create a lovely presentation.
8. Once all the enchiladas are in the dish, pour the remaining salsa verde over the top. Then, sprinkle the remaining cheddar and pepper jack cheese on top. This cheesy layer will become golden and bubbly as it bakes.
9. Transfer the baking dish to the preheated oven and bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the cheese has fully melted and is slightly golden. Your kitchen will smell amazing during this time!
10. To serve, top the hot enchiladas with sliced avocado, the remaining mango, a squeeze of fresh lime juice, and additional cilantro. Each bite is a celebration of fresh, vibrant flavors that you won't want to miss!
