What ever recipe you use, here's a tip to make the chicken stay moist and tender and really delicious!. Brining! Make a brine by mixing 1/2 cup of salt and 1/4 cup of sugar to 2 quarts of water!. Rinse the chicken off then submerge in the brine solution and leave it there for about an hour or so!.
Then pour off the brine and rinse the chicken again and cook in any recipe you'd like!. You'll be amazed at the complements you get on your chicken!. If you rinse it off it isn't salty either!. Some kind of process occurs where the salt changes the protien of the chicken so that it hold onto it's natural juices and doesn't dry out as easily!. Try it, it really works! ( but don't do it to kosher chicken, it's already brined!.)Www@FoodAQ@Com

Super simple chicken recipe that has been a hit at my house and for different occasions!. Only uses a very few ingredients also!

Chicken Enchiladas

3-4 chicken breasts baked or simmered in water for 40 minutes, cool slightly then remove skin and bones!. Separate the chicken into bite size pieces!.

1 can cream of chicken soup
1 can of green chili sauce (in the Mexican food section of grocery store)
12 oz shredded cheddar cheese (I prefer sharp, Sargento has an excellent 2% cheddar, basicly a lower fat cheese)
12 - 10 inch tortillas

In medium sauce pan combine the soup and green chili sauce and heat!.
Oil a 11 X 13 baking pan and preheat oven to 350 degrees!. Separate the tortillas, microwave for a few seconds if they stick together!.
