Time 55m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 small red onion, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons rice vinegar, plus more, for the sauce
3 pounds bone-in skin-on chicken thighs, trimmed of excess fat (6 to 8 thighs)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
One 15-ounce can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 firm ripe mango, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon coconut milk
2 teaspoons chopped chipotle chiles in adobo

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
  • Put the onions in a bowl with the vinegar and soak 10 minutes.
  • Sprinkle the chicken with 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Place skin-side up in a large ovensafe skillet and roast until the skin is golden brown and crispy and the chicken is cooked through, about 35 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, toss the beans, mango and cilantro with the soaked onions and vinegar, 1 tablespoon of the coconut milk and salt and pepper to taste in a medium bowl.
  • Transfer the chicken to 4 dinner plates. Carefully pour out the excess fat from the skillet and place on the stovetop over medium-high heat (use caution; the handle will be extremely hot). Add the chipotle chiles, remaining 1/2 cup coconut milk and 1/2 cup water; bring to a boil, scraping the browned bits from the pan. Reduce the heat and simmer until the sauce is slightly thickened, about 3 minutes. Add a splash of vinegar and season with salt.
  • Spoon the sauce over the chicken and serve with the black bean-mango salad on the side.

Categories     Chicken

Time 1h5m

Yield 24 enchiladas, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 chicken breast, cooked
1 (15 ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed
1 1/2 cups shredded cheese
1 (36 count) package corn tortillas
1 1/2 cups sour cream
3 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons flour
2 cups chicken broth
1 onion, diced
1 green pepper, diced
2 garlic cloves, minced
cumin, to taste
dried chipotle powder, to taste
salt and pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Melt butter in a stock pot.
  • Add diced vegetables and saute until tender.
  • Sprinkle flour over the butter/veggie mix and whisk together, and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Add spices to taste, and cook for another minute or so.
  • Whisk in the chicken broth and bring to a boil.
  • When the sauce is thickened, remove from the heat and let cool for a few minutes, then whisk in the sour cream.
  • Taste the sauce and readjust your seasonings, if you need to. (I find that I often need to add more salt after I add the sour cream.).
  • Soften tortillas in your usual way. (I fry them in a bit of oil in my cast iron skillet.)
  • While the sauce is cooking, use a food processor and chop the chicken finely.
  • Mix chicken, beans, and 1 cup of cheese in a bowl.
  • Roll the filling in the softened tortillas and place them in a lightly greased pan. (You will probably have tortillas left over. My kids like them spread with a little butter and folded in quarters for snacks.).
  • Pour the sauce over top, sprinkle with the remaining cheese.
  • Bake for 45 minutes, or until bubbly and a little browned on the top.
