Our Chicken Recipes section offers something for everyone, from chicken soup to roast chicken.


“That fellow Béchameil has all the luck! I was serving breast of chicken á la crème more than 20 years before he was born, but I have never had the chance of giving my name to even the most modest sauce.”
Duke of Escars, 17th century

 

“Do not be afraid of simplicity. If you have a cold chicken for supper, why cover it with a tasteless white sauce which makes it look like a pretentious chicken dish on the buffet table at some fance dress ball?”
X. Marcel Boulestin, chef.

Chicken Chalupas (Enchiladus)

 

Ingredients

6 flour tortillas, *see below
2 large chicken breasts, cooked and cut up in smal
1 can cream of chicken soup
8 oz can diced green chilies, (i used mild)
1/2 pt sour cream
1/3 lb jack cheese, grated
1/3 lb sharp cheese, grated
1/2 can sliced black olives
1 small onion, grated
1 green onion tops



 

Preparation

Combine soup, onion, green onion tops, sour cream, chilies, and black
olives. Add most of the cheeses, saving some for the top. Set aside
1 cup of this mixture without the chicken. Then add the cut up
chicken to the remaining mixture.

In a 9 X 13 greased shallow baking dish fill each tortilla with some
of the chicken mixture and roll up, folding ends in if you so desire.
Pour remaining sauce over the top of filled tortillas and sprinkle
with remaining cheese. (Sprinkle with paprika if you choose.)
Refrigerate overnight.

At this point they can be frozen for later use. Then thaw in
refrigerator over night before baking.

Bake at 350^ for 45 minutes.

*This will fill 6 large size or 8-9 med size tortillas.
