Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     Latin American     Mexican

Time 1h20m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 15

5 large chicken breasts
salt and ground black pepper to taste
water
5 fresh tomatillos, husks removed
1 serrano pepper, or more to taste
2 cloves garlic
3 poblano peppers
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 onion, chopped
1 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1 lime, juiced
½ cup vegetable oil
12 corn tortillas
2 (8 ounce) packages shredded queso quesadilla (white Mexican cheese)
4 tablespoons Mexican crema

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Fill a large pot 3/4 full with water and bring to a boil. Add chicken and season with salt and black pepper. Cook until chicken is no longer pink inside, about 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, bring 1 cup water to a boil in a medium-sized pot. Add tomatillos, serrano pepper, and garlic. Boil for 12 minutes.
  • Heat a cast iron skillet over medium heat. Place poblano peppers in a resealable plastic bag and add 1 tablespoon oil. Toss to coat. Transfer peppers to the hot skillet and roast until dark brown on all sides, about 5 minutes. Return roasted peppers to the resealable bag and seal. Set aside to steam for 10 minutes. Take out peppers from the bag; remove and discard skins and stems.
  • Use a slotted spoon to transfer tomatillos, serrano peppers, garlic, and 1/2 cup of the cooking liquid to a blender. Add onion, cilantro, lime juice, roasted poblano peppers, salt, and pepper to the blender. Liquefy into a smooth sauce.
  • Remove chicken from the water in the pot and shred using a fork.
  • Heat 1/2 cup oil in a skillet over medium heat. Fry tortillas in the hot oil until softened, about 5 seconds on each side. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil.
  • Pour 1/2 the sauce from the blender into the bottom of a long glass baking pan. Roll a portion of chicken mixture and some shredded queso cheese on a tortilla, roll up, and place in the pan. Repeat with remaining tortillas, chicken mixture, and queso cheese. Cover enchiladas with remaining sauce. Use a spoon to add crema in a zigzag design on top. Top everything with remaining queso cheese.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until cheese starts to brown, about 20 minutes.

CHICKEN SALSA VERDE



Chicken Salsa Verde image

Provided by Bobby Flay

Categories     main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

Four 6-ounce chicken thighs, boneless and skinless, at room temperature
2 tablespoons plus 4 teaspoons canola oil
4 teaspoons kosher salt, for seasoning
2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
5 cloves garlic, crushed with sprinkle of salt
2 anchovies in oil, drained, finely chopped
1 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley
1/4 cup fresh chives
1/4 cup fresh tarragon leaves
1 tablespoon lemon zest
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • For the chicken: Preheat a cast-iron grill pan over medium-high heat. Drizzle the chicken with 2 tablespoons of the canola oil. Season with 2 teaspoons of the salt and 1 teaspoon of the pepper; drizzle with the remaining 4 teaspoons canola oil.
  • Place the chicken seasoned-side down on the grill. Season the side facing upwards with the remaining 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. Cook the chicken until golden-brown and the exterior has formed a crust, turning midway through to form the cross-hatch pattern, 3 to 4 minutes. (Note: the chicken is not being flipped, the same side is still on the grill.) Flip the chicken and repeat until the other side is golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. The center of the chicken should be firm to the touch when poked and the meat thermometer should read 165 degrees F.
  • For the salsa verde: Combine the garlic and the anchovies on the cutting board. Put the parsley, chives and tarragon on the cutting board and coarsely chop to combine with the garlic mixture. Put the salsa mixture in a medium bowl and add the lemon zest. Add the red pepper and salt. Mix the herb mixture together while drizzling in the olive oil until thoroughly combined. Put the salsa in a serving bowl and set aside until the chicken is ready.

Tips:

  • Prep your ingredients in advance: This will help you save time and ensure that your tostadas are assembled quickly and easily.
  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: This will make a big difference in the flavor of your tostadas.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different toppings: There are endless possibilities when it comes to tostada toppings, so get creative and have fun!
  • Serve your tostadas immediately: This will ensure that they are crispy and delicious.
