   "This is Clinton’s favorite entree.  Definitely not low-fat, it has
   wonderful flavor.
   
   In a skillet over medium-high heat, heat 1 Tbsp oil.  Add the chilies and
   garlic; saute until garlic is soft.  Break up tomatoes and add to chilies
   along with onions, 1 tsp salt, oregano and 1/2 cup reserved tomato liquid.
   Simmer uncovered until thick, about 30 minutes. (You can add more reserved
   tomato liquid if sauce gets too thick too quickly.) Remove tomato sauce
   from heat and set aside.
   
   Heat 1/3 cup oil in a skillet over medium-high heat until hot.  Dip
   tortillas in hot oil for a few seconds, or just until they become limp.
   Drain well on paper towels.  Fill tortillas with chicken mixture.  Roll up
   and arrange side by side, seam down, in a 9x13x2-inch baking dish.
   
   Pour tomato sauce over enchiladas and bake at 350 degrees until heated
   through, about 20 minutes.  Can freeze cooked enchiladas and heat through
   in oven before serving.
