SMOTHERED CHICKEN ENCHILADA RECIPE RECIPES

Steps:

• Sprinkle chicken with salt and lemon-pepper.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat; cook the chicken breasts in hot oil until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 13 to 15 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove and keep warm.
• Place bacon in large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels; reserve 2 tablespoons drippings. Cook and stir onion and brown sugar in reserved drippings until onion is golden, about 5 minutes.
• Place two bacon strips on each chicken breast half; top with caramelized onions and sprinkle with Colby-Monterey Jack cheese.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Line 12x8-inch (2-quart) baking dish with foil.
• Fill 4-quart pot three-fourths full with water. Add 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts (about 10 oz total). Heat to boiling. Reduce heat to simmer; cover and cook 15 minutes or until juice of chicken is clear when center of thickest part is cut (at least 165°F).
• Meanwhile, lightly fold 8 Old El Paso™ flour tortillas for burritos (8 inch) in half and place folded-side-down in dish; set aside. Place 1 can (10 oz) Old El Paso™ red enchilada sauce, 1 can (15 oz) Progresso™ black beans and 1 cup of the shredded Mexican four-cheese blend in large bowl. Shred cooked chicken. Add chicken to bowl with beans; stir with large spoon to combine.
• Divide chicken mixture evenly among tortillas; wrap tortillas around filling and place seam side down.
• Pour remaining 1 can (10 oz) Old El Paso™ red enchilada sauce evenly over top. Sprinkle with remaining 1 cup shredded Mexican four-cheese blend.
• Bake uncovered 40 to 45 minutes or until hot and bubbly.
