Steps:
- Heat oven to 375°F.
- In 2-quart saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add onion and garlic; cook about 3 minutes or until softened. Sprinkle in flour. Cook and stir 1 minute. With whisk, gradually beat in milk, cooking 5 to 7 minutes or until mixture is slightly thickened. Stir in enchilada sauce. Add cheese; cook until cheese is melted, stirring occasionally.
- Meanwhile, in 10-inch skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Sprinkle salt and pepper on both sides of each chicken breast; place in skillet. Cook about 4 minutes on each side or until chicken is browned. Transfer chicken to ungreased 8-inch square or 12x6-inch (2-quart) glass baking dish.
- When cheese is melted in sauce, pour over chicken.
- Bake about 20 minutes or until juice of chicken is clear when center of thickest part is cut (at least 165°F). If desired, serve with Old El Paso® rice and beans.
