Mexican Din Din Night!!!
Chicken Enchiladas with Rice and Beans
Since we can't get good Mexican food in Tokyo, we have Mexican nights a lot.  My very picky Bandie Wandie approves of this recipe!


Here's the recipe:
Serving size: 2

2 chicken breasts, skin removed 
one can tomato sauce
2-3 tablespoons of sour cream
1/2 onion, diced
1 clove of garlic, minced
salt/pepper
1 teaspoon of cumin
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon parsley
shredded cheddar cheese
salsa
4 tortillas

Preheat oven to 350F or 175C
First cut the chicken into cubes and put salt/pepper and wait 30 min.
In a saucepan cook the chicken until no longer pink, drain excess oil
Add chopped onions and minced garlic, cook until onions become clear.
Add tomato sauce, sour cream, and chili powder, cayenne pepper, cumin, oregano, parsley.  
Let it cook for about 7 min.
Roll the chicken filling into the tortillas and arrange them in a baking dish.  (I used a pyrex dish).
Cover with leftover sauce from the chicken filling and salsa and cheddar cheese.
Bake uncovered for 25 min.
