Black Bean Enchiladas With Warm Salsa Verde image

With tangy tomatillos softened by creamy avocado in a Warm Salsa Verde, this Southwestern-inspired dish qualifies as contemporary comfort food. Fresh tomatillos are available in the produce section of most grocery stores. Look for firm, unblemished fruit inside a papery husk. Adapted from Rachael Ray 30-Minute Meals.

Time 25m

Yield 8 enchiladas, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

8 corn tortillas
10 1/2 ounces Mexican blend cheese
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, divided
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 small white onions
1 jalapeno, seeded and minced
2 (15 ounce) cans black beans, drained but not rinsed
2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 tablespoons tomato paste
coarse salt
12 tomatillos, husked and halved
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 (14 ounce) can vegetable stock
1 avocado
1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano leaves (optional)

Steps:

  • Wrap tortillas in aluminum foil, and heat in oven at 275F until fillings and sauce are ready.
  • Black Bean Filling:
  • Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in large skillet, and add 1 clove of chopped garlic. Grate 1 onion into pan with a hand grater. Add half of the jalapeno. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Add beans, and mash with back of a fork. Stir in 1 teaspoon cumin and tomato paste, and season with salt.
  • Warm Salsa Verde:
  • Place tomatillos in a food processor, and pulse to a coarsely ground paste.
  • Heat remaining 1 clove of garlic in remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat in a large saucepan. When garlic begins to sizzle, grate 1 onion with a hand grater directly into pan. Add remaining jalapeno. Heat through for 1 to 2 minutes, and add ground tomatillos. Simmer for 5 minutes. Add vegetable stock, 1 teaspoon cumin and salt to taste.
  • Scoop avocado flesh out of skins and into pot. Mash with back of a fork. Return sauce to a gentle boil. Reduce heat to low until enchiladas are assembled.
  • Preheat broiler. Scoop some sauce onto bottom of a casserole dish or shallow serving platter.
  • To make an enchilada, place 1 to 2 scoops of filling down center of a tortilla, and roll. Place filled tortillas seam side down into sauce on platter or casserole. Line up tortillas, one next to another, and top with remaining sauce and grated cheeses. Melt cheeses sprinkled with oregano under broiler, and serve immediately.

HALIBUT ENCHILADAS WITH SALSA VERDE



Halibut Enchiladas with Salsa Verde image

Categories     Salad     Sauce     Breakfast     Side     Bake     Halibut

Yield makes 5 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 pounds halibut fillets
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1/2 cup chopped onion
3/4 cup mayonnaise
3/4 cup sour cream
1 (4-ounce) can diced green chiles
2 cups store-bought shredded Mexican cheese mix (8 ounces)
4 cups store-bought salsa verde, or homemade Salsa Verde (page 198)
10 8-inch corn tortillas

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  • Lightly coat the halibut with 2 tablespoons of the vegetable oil and season it with salt and pepper. Put the halibut in a 9 x 13-inch casserole dish and bake for 25 minutes. Allow the halibut to cool, then flake it into a bowl. Keep the oven at 350°F.
  • Melt the butter in a sauté pan set over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until translucent, about 8 minutes. Transfer the onion to a medium bowl and add the mayonnaise, sour cream, chiles, and 1 cup of the cheese mix. Mix thoroughly.
  • Pour 2 cups of the verde sauce into the bottom of a 9 x 13-inch casserole dish. Set aside.
  • Heat the remaining 1 cup of vegetable oil in a sauté pan set over medium heat until just warm, then turn off the heat. Put one tortilla in the oil at a time and leave it in the oil for 5 seconds (you are looking to just make the tortilla pliable, not brown or crunchy). Transfer the tortilla to a cutting board. Put 1/4 cup of the fish mixture on one end of the tortilla. Roll up the tortilla and put it on top of the sauce in the casserole dish, seam side down. Repeat until all ten tortillas are filled, then pour the remaining 2 cups verde sauce over the top to coat the enchiladas entirely. Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup cheese mix over the top.
  • Bake for 25 minutes or until the sauce is bubbling slightly and the enchiladas are heated through.
  • note
  • Salsa verde is a versatile sauce that Sandy has in her refrigerator all the time. She likes to warm 1 cup of the sauce in the morning and pour it over eggs and toast for breakfast. It's a spicy way to start the day!

COOKING LIGHT ENCHILADAS VERDES



Cooking Light Enchiladas Verdes image

Lighter version of a favorite, easy to put together. Asadero cheese is readily available here in Arizona, but if you can't find it substitute asiago or a similar cheese. You can also use already prepared salsa verde for quicker prep time. I used leftover meat from store bought rotisserie chicken

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 50m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 lb tomatillo (about 15)
1 1/4 cups chicken broth, fat free and reduced sodium
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and chopped
2 1/2 cups bone in chicken breasts, roasted and shredded (about 12 ounces)
1/2 cup shredded asadero cheese or 1/2 cup asiago cheese

1/8 teaspoon black pepper

Steps:

  • Asadero, originally from Mexico, is a semisoft cow's milk cheese with a bright, pungent flavor.

Bring to a boil; reduce heat, and simmer 15 minutes or until tomatillos are tender. Cool slightly. Place salsa verde in a blender or food processor, and process until smooth or mash with a potato masher. Place a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add salsa verde; cook until reduced to 2 cups (about 1 minute).
  • Preheat oven to 400°.
  • To prepare enchilada filling, combine chicken and next 9 ingredients (chicken through black pepper) in a large bowl.

Spoon about 1/3 cup chicken mixture downcenter of each tortilla; roll up. Arrange enchiladas, seam sides down, crosswise in dish. Pour remaining salsa verde evenly over enchiladas. Cover and bake at 400° for 10 minutes or until thoroughly heated. Serve with sour cream, and garnish with sliced jalapeño, if desired.

Tips:

  • Use canned black beans for convenience: You can use dried black beans if you prefer, but canned beans are a great time-saver and work just as well in this recipe. Just be sure to rinse and drain them before using.
  • Roast your own tomatillos for a more intense flavor: Roasting tomatillos brings out their natural sweetness and smokiness. If you have the time, it's worth the extra effort to roast them yourself. Simply toss them with olive oil and salt, then roast them in a 400 degree Fahrenheit oven for 15-20 minutes, or until they are slightly charred. Once they are roasted, let them cool slightly before using.
  • Make your own salsa verde: Salsa verde is a versatile sauce that can be used on a variety of dishes. It's easy to make and only requires a few ingredients. Simply combine tomatillos, cilantro, onion, garlic, jalapeno, and lime juice in a blender or food processor and blend until smooth. You can adjust the heat of the salsa by adding more or less jalapeno. The recipe also provides instructions on how to make a delicious salsa roja, if you prefer a red salsa.
  • Use a variety of cheeses: This recipe calls for a combination of Monterey Jack and cheddar cheese, but you can use any type of cheese that you like. Some other good options include pepper Jack cheese, queso Oaxaca, or mozzarella cheese.
  • Don't overfill the enchiladas: If you overfill the enchiladas, they will be difficult to roll and will fall apart easily. Aim to fill each tortilla with about 1/4 cup of filling.
  • Bake the enchiladas until they are golden brown and bubbly: This will ensure that they are cooked through and the cheese is melted and gooey. The recipe recommends baking the enchiladas for 20-25 minutes, but you may need to bake them for a few minutes longer, depending on your oven.

Conclusion:

Black bean enchiladas with warm salsa verde are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for any occasion. They are packed with flavor and can be customized to your liking. Whether you serve them for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion, these enchiladas are sure to be a hit. So next time you're looking for a tasty and satisfying meal, give this recipe a try!
