Spread ½ cup of the enchilada sauce in the pan. 3. P lace the first tortilla in the pan. Turn to coat with sauce, place a heaping ¼ cup of the filling in the middle and fold over two sides to close. Turn over so the seam side is down, and push the tortilla to one side. Repeat with remaining tortillas, adding more sauce if needed or desired. Once all are filled and fit tightly into the pan, top them with the remaining sauce and shredded cheese. 4. P ut pan into the lower position and set to 350°F on the Bake setting. Bake for about 15 minutes, or until top of the enchiladas are nicely melted and lightly browned. 5.

To make it yourself, use a 4- to 5-pound whole chicken. First line the baking pan with aluminum foil. Then place the chicken on the pan. Rub with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, ½ teaspoon kosher salt and ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper. Squeeze ½ lemon over the entire chicken and then stuff lemon into the cavity. Put into the Toaster Oven Broiler in the lower position. Bake at 350°F on the Bake setting for about 45 minutes (depending on the size of the chicken). The breast should register around 160°F and the leg should be 170°F. Allow to fully cool before breaking down and shredding the chicken.
