3. while vegetables roast, in a large saucepan place chicken breasts and salt. add water to cover by 1”. bring to a boil, then reduce heat immediately to simmer very slowly, covered, until chicken is cooked through, about 15 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. remove to a cutting board to cool slightly, then shred with 2 forks.

6. pour remaining sauce over enchiladas, then sprinkle with cheese. bake until the sauce bubbles and cheese is melted, about 15 minutes.
