After a few weeks without buying a Costco chicken we succumbed to its low-priced convenience and bought one. It is such a good deal—still only $4.99 for a rotisserie cooked, good-sized chicken. Sarah took it apart separating the dark meat from the breasts and saving the skin and bones for cracklings and stock. I shredded one of the breasts which yielded enough meat for 13 enchiladas and I have the other breast for classic chicken later in the week.

We made a casserole dish of the charred tortillas stuffed with shredded chicken, onions, cheese, and enchilada sauce and topped it with additional enchilada sauce, onions, and cheese. It cooked for about 40 minutes in a 400F oven. The three of us ate most of them but John still has two left over for lunch.
