    Mexican Stuffed Chicken Breasts

    Yield: 4 servings

    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

    Split, skin, bone and pound chicken breasts to flatten.

    Crush the tortilla chips finely. Chop enough black olives to yield 4 to 6 teaspoons.

    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.

    Heat oil in a heavy skillet; brown rolls lightly. Place rolls in a shallow baking dish.

    Chop the tomatoes but do not drain. Mix with the enchilada sauce and pour over chicken rolls. Bake in preheated 350 degree F oven for 35 to 40 minutes.

    Sprinkle with Cheddar cheese and bake 5 to 7 minutes longer until cheese is bubbling.
