Pound meat into 1/8" thickness. Halve three chili peppers

one half of a chili on each chicken piece. Fold
in sides of chicken and roll up as a jelly roll. Secure with wooden
toothpicks. Combine 1/4 flour, cornmeal, garlic powder, red pepper and 1/4
t salt and set aside. Beat together egg and 3 T milk. Roll each chicken
roll in flour mixture, dip in egg mixture and then again in flour mixture.
In a skillet, heat 1/4 c oil. Cook chicken in hot oil for 10-15 minutes,
browning on all sides. Transfer chicken to a 12" X 17-1/2" baking dish.
Bake in 400øF oven until tender, approximately 15 minutes. Prepare the
sauce while chicken is in oven. In a 2 quart saucepan, heat 3 T oil. Add
onion, garlic and cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in the
undrained tomatos, chicken broth, chili powder, vinegar, crushed red
pepper, cumin, oregano and 1/4 t salt. Simmer for 20 minutes uncovered.
Transfer chicken to a platter and remove toothpicks. Combine tomato
mixture with 1/2 cup milk and 2 T flour. Thicken for 1-2 minutes. To
serve, pour sauce over rolls, top with cheese and olives.
