Directions:
Boil chicken until cooked. When cool, shred with fork. Combine chicken, cilantro, onion and 1/2 cup of enchilada sauce in a medium sized bowl. Set aside

Heat a small omelette pan with 1/2 cup of vegetable oil. Pour the rest of the enchilada in a small bowl but big enough for the tortilla's to fit in.
When the oil is hot, put one tortilla in the oil for a few seconds then flip it over for a few. With tongs carefully lift the tortilla out of the oil and emerse it in the enchilada sauce on bolth sides. Lift the tortilla out of the sauce and lay it in a 9X13 baking dish. Fill the tortilla with small amount of the chicken mixture then sprinkle it with cheese. Roll the tortilla and place it folded side down in the dish. Continue to fill all the tortillas. Pour the remaining enchilada sauce over the filled tortillas then put the remaining cheese over the top. Lay the olives over the cheese.

I like to broil them for 5 minutes at the end to make them sort of crisp and nice and brown
