Steps:
- Prep: Preheat your oven to 350F.
- Make the filling: Season the chicken breasts generously with taco seasoning on both sides. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet then add the chicken breasts. Cook on both sides for about 5 minutes per side, until cooked through and browned. Transfer the chicken to a cutting board and cut into small cubes. In the same skillet, add the onion, a bit more taco seasoning if you want, and cook for 5 minutes until the onion is soft and translucent. Add the green chiles, garlic and cook for another minute. Add the chicken back to the skillet and about 1/2 cup of the enchilada sauce. Stir everything together, and cook for 2 more minutes until the chicken heats through.
- Roll: Place the tortillas on your work surface. Spoon about 1/2 cup to 3/4 cup of the chicken mixture onto the center of each tortilla, then about 1/4 cup of the shredded cheese and roll them up. Spoon about 1/2 cup of enchilada sauce over the bottom of the casserole dish and spread it around a bit. Place the enchilada rolls, seam-side down, in the prepared casserole dish (it should be a tight fit). Pour the remaining 1 cup of enchilada sauce over the tortillas and sprinkle with remaining cheese.
- Bake: uncovered for 25 to 30 minutes until the enchiladas are heated through and the cheese has melted. Garnish with parsley or cilantro and serve.

Steps:
- Heat the olive oil in a large nonstick ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook until slightly softened, about 2 minutes. Add the garlic and taco seasoning and cook, stirring occasionally, until the garlic softens, about 1 minute. Stir in the tomatoes, rice and 3 cups water. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce the heat to medium low. Cook until the rice is tender, about 20 minutes.
- Preheat the broiler. Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the chicken, 1 cup cheese, the cilantro and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Arrange the tortillas on top to cover and sprinkle with the remaining 1 cup cheese. Broil until the cheese melts, 2 to 3 minutes. Top with sour cream, pickled jalapenos and more cilantro.

ONE POT CHICKEN ENCHILADA RICE CASSEROLE
Everything you know and love about the flavour of Chicken Enchiladas.....but in the form of a rice casserole! And all made in ONE POT on the stove! I like the flow of this recipe because you don't need to measure everything out in advance. After cooking the bell pepper (capsicum) add the passata and chicken broth, then while that comes to a simmer you can gather all the spices. Saves time! This recipe makes a LOT. Because it is carb heavy, I think it is enough to feed 6.
