Roast the garlic, onion, and tomato, placing them on a hot griddle until the skin starts to darken. Be sure to move them for even roasting. Blend the roasted ingredients with chicken broth until smooth. Strain the sauce into a saucepan, heat over medium temperature, and cook for 5 minutes. Set aside. In a skillet with hot oil, fry the tortillas on both sides, making sure they do not brown too much to maintain flexibility. Drain on paper towels. Fill the tortillas with shredded chicken, fold them, and repeat until finished. Preheat the oven to 180°C. Assemble the enchiladas. In a rectangular baking dish, arrange the enchiladas making sure to utilize the space, cover with the sauce, add a layer of sour cream, and another of grated cheese until completely covered. Bake at 180°C for 15 minutes. Serve the enchiladas hot, accompanied by onion and avocado.
