    This may sound odd but I had boneless thighs the other day and all I did was saute them with a little pam and after they were cooked I just added a few tablespoons of fat free ranch and it came out awesome. Also I like the quesadilla idea too. Mmmmmmm this is making me hungry thinking about dinner

    I don't know the calories for this, but I can't imagine its high...

    Place chicken in a ziplock bag with taco seasoning and a little water. Keep in fridge for a few hours. Or you can just sprinkle with taco seasoning. Place chicken on aluminum foil, put a spoonful of salsa on chicken and top with low fat cheddar cheese. Make a foil packet and place in oven on cookie sheet. I tend to cut the chicken thinner so it cooks faster.
    Enjoy!!

    Ingredients
    1 sprays cooking spray
    8 oz Kraft Velveeta Light Reduced-Fat Pasteurized Processed Cheese Product
    1/2 cup fat-free sour cream
    1/4 cup fat-free evaporated milk
    1/4 cup scallion(s), green part only, minced
    1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
    3 cup cooked chicken breast, chopped*

    Instructions

    Preheat oven to 350ºF. Coat a 9-inch glass baking dish with cooking spray.
    In a microwave-safe bowl, combine cheese product and sour cream; cover and microwave on high power until cheese melts, about 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. Remove half of melted cheese to a small bowl and stir in evaporated milk; set aside. Add scallions, red pepper flakes and chicken to remaining cheese mixture; stir to coat.

    Spoon about 2/3 cup of chicken mixture down center of each tortilla; fold in sides of tortilla to cover filling and place tortillas in a single layer in prepared dish; spoon remaining cheese sauce over top and then sprinkle with shredded cheddar cheese and olives.

    Bake until cheese topping is bubbly, about 20 to 25 minutes. Serve with salsa. Yields 1 enchilada per serving.
