In Vicki’s household, chicken enchiladas are a favorite birthday dinner request. Her original recipe was time-consuming, so she came up with a few short cuts that make this meal’s preparation a pleasure vs. a chore. Making these in advance? Put unbaked enchiladas in the freezer and when needed, bring to room temperature and bake. It’s that simple!

We are all eating at home more than usual during these trying times. This recipe will make more than one meal. Simply freeze leftovers in small Ziploc bags for individual portions and you’re all set for another dinner or lunch.
This is a quick week night dinner and was a huge hit with our grandchildren – just leave out the red pepper flakes if serving to young kids.

This recipe was inspired by Gina Homolka’s cookbook, The Skinnytaste. We added a few more spices to give it a little kick. Using olive oil and lemon juice as the liquid for the breading process keeps calories down to about 200 calories per roll. Spraying the chicken prior to cooking with cooking spray gives the breadcrumb coating a great crunch. Fried chicken flavor with out the calories or mess!
Not only does this dish taste great, but it can be assembled and refrigerated in the morning and cooked at dinner time (let it sit on the counter for a half hour before putting into the oven).

Easy … Easy … Easy. This marinade comes together in a flash, the chicken sits in the refrigerator overnight (or at least for several hours), and bakes in under an hour. A great recipe for entertaining a crowd. Another great thing, it can be served at room temperature so you can have fun at your party too!

Don’t let the strange ingredients fool you; this tastes fantastic! The chicken marinades overnight, so a little advanced planning is necessary. This is also a wonderful buffet dish!
