• Cook on LOW 6 to 8 hours (or on HIGH 3 to 4 hours).
• Stir chicken mixture. Serve over rice topped with cheese and onions.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Put the chips in a food processor and pulse until they are finely ground; set aside.
• Slice the chicken breasts in half horizontally so you have 4 thin chicken cutlets.
• Set up a breading station with 3 shallow dishes: Stir together the flour, chili powder and 1/2 teaspoon salt in the first dish. Beat the eggs in the second dish and add the tortilla chips to the third dish. Coat a cutlet in the flour. Dip in the egg, letting any excess drip off and then press into the tortilla chips. Transfer to a plate and bread the remaining cutlets.
• Heat 1/4 cup of the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat until a piece of the breading sizzles when added to the oil. Add 2 breaded cutlets to the oil, making sure they don't touch each other. Fry until golden brown on both sides, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate. Add the remaining 1/4 cup oil to the skillet, heat and then fry the remaining cutlets.
• Evenly spread 1/2 cup salsa on the bottom of a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Arrange the chicken in a single layer on top. Pour 1/4 cup of salsa on top of each piece of chicken. Shingle the cheese evenly over the chicken.
• Bake until the cheese is bubbling and golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes.
• Sprinkle with the jalapeno and cilantro.

Steps:

• In a deep skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, add the garlic, onion, chili powder, cumin, cayenne pepper, salt, pepper and turmeric. Cook, stirring often, until the onion is soft and the spices are toasted, about 3 minutes.
• Pour in the tomato sauce, diced tomatoes and green chiles, chicken and both bags of rice. Stir together and cook until the rice is heated through and beginning to absorb some of the liquid, about 5 minutes. Turn the heat to low and sprinkle the pepper jack over the top. Cover with a lid and allow the cheese to melt completely, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Sprinkle over the cilantro and serve.

Steps:

• Heat grill to medium heat.
• In a small bowl mix together the spices and then sprinkle over both sides of the chicken.
• Spray the chicken with non stick cooking spray and place on preheated grill. Cover.
• Grill 7-10 minutes or until no longer pink in the center, turning once.
• Serve with avocado salsa or on a salad.
• I like to pound the chicken to an even thickness for faster and more even cooking.
