Steps:
- Tip the flour into a small bowl. Mix 1 tsp of the oil with 60ml water, add to the flour and stir with the blade of a cutlery knife until the mixture starts to come together. Use your hands to bring the mixture into a ball, then halve and cover with a tea towel.
- Mix 2 tbsp of the yogurt with the chilli powder, garlic and lime zest, then tip in the onion, pepper and chicken and stir well to coat. Heat the remaining oil in a large non-stick pan over a medium heat, add the chicken mixture and cook, stirring every now and then, for about 10 mins.
- Meanwhile, lightly flour the work surface and heat a very large non-stick frying pan over a medium heat, but don't add any oil. Roll out one of the balls of dough to a rough circle about 25cm across until it is paper thin, then carefully peel off the work surface and slap into the frying pan. The dough will cook within a minute, then flip over and cook for a few seconds more. Lift onto a plate and cook the other ball of dough in the same way.
- Roughly mash the avocado with the lime juice and spread over the flatbreads, top with the chicken mixture and remaining yogurt and scatter over the coriander. Roll up the enchiladas and serve.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 9-by-13-inch baking dish.
- Add the chicken and 2 1/2 cups of the Monterey Jack cheese to a large bowl and toss together. Set aside.
- Heat the butter, enchilada sauce and hot sauce and in a small saucepan over medium heat until the butter melts. Remove from the heat. Transfer 1 cup of the sauce to the bowl with the chicken. Toss to fully coat.
- Ladle 1/2 cup of the sauce into the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Spread a heaping 1/2 cup of the chicken mixture evenly onto a tortilla, then roll it up. If you'd like, trim the round ends of the tortilla that are unfilled and reserve for another use. Cut the rolled tortilla into 6 pinwheels. Place each pinwheel cut-side down in the baking dish. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and chicken mixture. Pour the remaining sauce over the tortillas and sprinkle the remaining Monterey Jack cheese on top.
- Bake until the cheese is melted and bubbling, 15 to 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, toss the lettuce with the ranch dressing in a large bowl.
- Sprinkle the blue cheese crumbles on top of the enchiladas. Serve immediately with the salad.
- Combine the mayonnaise, buttermilk, chives, parsley, garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a medium bowl. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
