GREEN CHILI CHICKEN ENCHILADAS:
My mother made these for us on a regular basis as children, I actually don’t know the right way to make a small batch of this LOL. Makes 8 servings.
INGREDIENTS:
1/2 a rotisserie hen, meat pulled off the bone
1 cup “that inexperienced sauce” from HEB or a canned inexperienced enchilada sauce
1/4 white onion, roughly diced
1/2 c tomatillo salsa or any inexperienced salsa
1/4 c cilantro
1/2 c entire milk Greek yogurt
1 c shredded monterey/colby jack cheese
1 clove of garlic
salt and pepper to style
1 inexperienced onion, sliced – to garnish
extra cilantro – to garnish
DIRECTIONS:
+ Preheat oven to 375F.
+ Combine hen, inexperienced sauce, inexperienced salsa, cilantro, garlic, yogurt, 1/4 cup of cheese, onion, salt and pepper right into a meals processor. In case you don’t have a meals processor, simply chop every part very small till you could have a paste-texture meat combination.
+ In a 9×13 casserole dish, dump in 1/2 c of your inexperienced sauce or enchilada sauce into the underside and unfold evenly, this can assist tortillas from sticking to the pan.
+ Heat your tortillas within the microwave for 30 seconds simply in order that they’re malleable. Scoop about 2 T of the meat combination into every corn tortilla and roll up finish to finish, putting it seam facet DOWN within the pan till you employ all of the meat filling. Simply squish all of them up towards one another good and tight till the pan is crammed all the way in which up, however enchiladas are in a fair single layer.
+ Combine the inexperienced salsa with remaining inexperienced sauce and pour over all of the enchiladas (don’t neglect the perimeters!) evenly.
+ High with remaining cheese everywhere in the prime. Bake within the oven for 30min or till the cheese is melted and golden on prime.
And nothing goes higher with enchiladas than an ice chilly skinny margarita…
+ 1.5 ounce blanco tequila
+ 1 ounce of Cointreau ( use Triple Sec if that is unavailable )
+ limes
+ slightly lemon
+ a speck of agave (a SPECK)
+ choice: 2 squeezes of a grapefruit and even pomegranates
+ half rim of salt or Tajin
+ use a lime to rim the glass & then add salt to solely half the rim. In a shaker add 3/4 recent lime juice, one squeeze of lemon, then add Cointreau (or Triple Sec), & tequila.
Rule of Thumb: when making a cocktail, begin with the most cost effective elements first & end with the most costly final. Add ice to the shaker final (you don’t need the ice to soften into your elements). Add ice to rimmed glass & shake and pressure your cocktail over the ice. Garnish with a grapefruit slice or lime wedge. Recently I desire a Baccarat glass however the basic blue rimmed glasses are at all times stylish.
There you could have it. Like we stated, prep the enchiladas forward of time and pop it within the oven for a stunning Cinco de Mayo meal, or hold it within the freezer to make use of one other day.
