  • 1 medium white onion, diced
  • 1 (2.25 ounce) can sliced black olives, drained

    Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high. Season the chicken on both sides with the taco seasoning and place them in the pan. Sear on both sides until browned and cooked through, about 13 minutes total. Remove the chicken and let rest for about 10 minutes. Chop the chicken.

    In a large bowl, combine the chopped chicken, onions, 3/4 of the sliced olives, 3/4 of the scallions, 3 tablespoons of the enchilada sauce and 2 tablespoons sour cream. Toss to coat.

    5
    Pour a little of the enchilada sauce over the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish.

    Evenly divide the chicken mixture among the 8 tortillas. Roll up each tortilla and place them in the baking dish, seam side down.
  • Step

    Pour the remaining sauce on top of the enchiladas and top with the cheese. Bake for 30-40 minutes or until the cheese is melted, browned and bubbly.
