Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

  • 2 chicken breasts
  • 1 can green chiles
  • 2 tablespoons black olives, chopped
  • 1/2 cup Monterey Jack cheese, shredded
  • 1 large egg, beaten
  • 1 cup crushed tortilla chips
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/2 cup canned enchilada sauce
  • 1 (16 ounce) can tomatoes
  • 1/2 cup Cheddar cheese

Instructions

  1. Split, skin, bone and pound chicken breasts to flatten.
  2. Crush the tortilla chips finely. Chop enough black olives to yield 4 to 6 teaspoons.
  3. On each chicken breast place 1 chile, 1 teaspoon or more of chopped olives and 2 tablespoons jack cheese. Roll breasts tightly and fasten with wooden picks. Dip each roll into the beaten egg, then into crushed chips.
  4. Heat oil in a heavy skillet; brown rolls lightly. Place rolls in a shallow baking dish.
  5. Chop the tomatoes but do not drain. Mix with the enchilada sauce and pour over chicken rolls. Bake in preheated 350 degrees F oven for 35 to 40 minutes.
  6. Sprinkle with Cheddar cheese and bake 5 to 7 minutes longer until cheese is bubbling.
