Layered Chicken and Black Bean Enchiladas

Kraft understands that everyone wants easy dinners this time of year and to help they have a range of products designed to make easy week night meals. I used one of the new Kraft Recipe Maker kits to make a quick and delicious dinner for my family, Layered Chicken and Black Bean Enchiladas.

I like quick dinner recipes, because while I enjoy cooking many times I just don’t have the time to make a complicated meal. Lately it seems like I never have more than 30 minutes to make dinner, because we are so busy. So I was excited to try the new Saute Express® Saute© Starter  because it is all about making dinner prep easier!

The idea behind this new product is that Land O Lakes has done a lot of prep work already, and combines butter, oil, herbs and seasonings into a convenient block, that can be easily melted and used to saute chicken, pork or fish.  So instead of mincing garlic and trying to find 5 different spices in the pantry I can just throw a square in the pan to melt, and then saute my meat.

Chicken Tikka Masala Recipe

This is a quick and easy recipe that is perfect for busy weeknights.  One of my roommates in college was Indian, and she introduced me to Indian cooking. The only problem is traditional Indian cooking is time consuming, and usually ends up getting most of the dishes in the kitchen dirt!. So this is an Indian recipe with some short cuts, like using canned tomatoes with green chilies, that ends up being fast enough for a weeknight meal.

Baked Chicken with Rice and Tomatoes Recipe

When I was growing up one of my favorite meals that my mom made was baked chicken, cooked on top of rice mixed with cream of mushroom soup.  But I don’t like to cook with cream soups, because they have so much fat and sodium.  So this is a healthier version of that meal, using tomatoes instead of cream soup and adding more vegetables.

Chicken with Tomatillos Recipe

chicken and tomatillos with rice

This is a nice chicken stew type recipe using tomatillos.  Around here we only see tomatillos in the stores for a few weeks, so it is nice to make something using them when they are available.  I got this recipe from my mom, although she usually makes it with pork and I like it with chicken.  It is quick and easy, and can be make in about half an hour.
