| 1. Boil chicken. Save the broth and use it to cook 1-1/2 cups rice to make 3 cups total cooked rice. Shred chicken. | 2. In a large skillet, sauté onions and peppers in oil until soft; set aside. | 3. In large bowl, mix rice, chicken, 1-1/2 cups of the cheese, and ½ cup of the green enchilada sauce (save the rest to pour over at the end). | 4. Use a large rectangular casserole dish, a minimum of 13 by 9 inches, or use two dishes. Barely coat bottom of casserole dish with enchilada sauce. Divide chicken rice mixture into 9 portions, and roll up one portion in each flour tortilla. Stack rolled tortillas close together in dish(es). | 5. Carefully pour enchilada sauce over rolled-up tortillas, separating them so that all the sauce penetrates between the tortillas to the bottom of the dish. | 6. Scatter sautéed onions and peppers over the casserole. | 7. Sprinkle remaining cheese over casserole. | 8. Bake in a 375 degree oven for 40-50 minutes, until cheese is bubbly and casserole is heated through. | 9. Before serving, cut the enchiladas down the middle. They are large enough that one enchilada will feed two people (unless you’ve got a really hungry person!). | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
