Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Heat olive oil in a saute pan over medium heat. Add onion; cook and stir until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and heat until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.
- Combine chicken, onion mixture, cheese blend, cream cheese, salsa verde, olives, cilantro, and jalapenos in a large bowl for the filling. Mix well.
- Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in flour, then chicken broth. Cook until sauce starts to thicken, 6 to 8 minutes. Stir in sour cream and salsa verde; cook until heated through. Spread a spoonful of sauce over the bottoms of two 9x11-inch casserole dishes.
- Wrap a tortilla in a damp paper towel and microwave for about 30 seconds. Fill with the chicken mixture, roll up, and place seam-side down into a baking dish. Repeat with remaining tortillas until each dish holds 8 enchiladas.
- Spoon remaining sauce over the enchiladas. Sprinkle cheese on top.
- Bake in the preheated oven until heated through, about 20 minutes.

Steps:
- In a large skillet, saute rice with butter or margarine. Add chicken broth and simmer over low heat for 15 to 20 minutes, or until rice is cooked and tender. Let cool.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Cube 3/4 pound of the cheese; shred the remaining 1/4 pound cheese and set aside. Combine chicken, 3/4 pound cubed cheese, corn, cooled rice and 1/4 cup sauce in a large bowl. Mix together. Warm tortillas in the microwave for 2 minutes and spread another 1/4 cup sauce in the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish.
- Place a little of the chicken mixture on each tortilla and roll up. Place filled tortillas (as many as will fit) in the baking dish. Sprinkle with 1/4 pound shredded cheese and top with any remaining sauce, pouring evenly over all. (Freeze remaining tortillas for future green sauce enchiladas!)
- Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 30 minutes.

- Place the cilantro, white onion, garlic and sea salt into your blender with 2 1/2 of water. Pour this into a medium sized pot, add the rice and give it a stir. Put the pot over high heat and bring it to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot and let it simmer for 40 minutes, or until the rice is soft and no liquid remains. Remove the pot from the heat and stir the rice.
- While the rice is cooking, prepare the rest of the meal. Set a baking rack in the top third of your oven and preheat your oven to broil. Place the tomatillos, unpeeled garlic and jalapeño peppers on a lined baking sheet and toss with the oil. Broil for 20 minutes without turning, or until the tomatillos are slightly charred. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Remove the skin from the garlic and the stems from the jalapeños. If you like it quite mild, remove the seeds from the jalapeños, too. Place 1 cup of water, the tomatillos, garlic, and jalapeños, along with any liquid on the pan, into your blender and blend on high until smooth. Season to taste with sea salt. Reduce the oven temperature to bake at 350 degrees.
- While the tomatillos are roasting, prepare the chicken. Place the chicken breasts in a medium-sized pot and cover with water. Bring the pot to a boil then reduce the heat, cover, and let it simmer for 15 minutes, or until no pink remains inside the chicken breasts. Drain the pot and shred the chicken using two forks.
- Lay 8 tortillas on your counter. Place 1/2 cup of rice into the center of each tortilla then top with the chicken. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of goat cheese on top of each enchilada.
