Provided by Seth Kolloen

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     Latin American     Mexican

Time 1h30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

6 Hatch chile peppers, sliced in half lengthwise and seeded
3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
2 tablespoons butter
1 pound skinless, boneless chicken thighs
2 ½ cups chicken broth, divided
1 onion, chopped
4 cloves garlic, minced
¼ teaspoon dried oregano
¼ teaspoon ground cumin
salt and ground black pepper to taste
½ (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes, drained
12 (6 inch) corn tortillas
1 (8 ounce) package shredded Mexican cheese blend

Steps:

  • Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
  • Arrange Hatch chiles, skin-side up, on the prepared baking sheet. Brush with 1 tablespoon olive oil.
  • Cook under the preheated broiler until the skin of the peppers has blackened and blistered, 5 to 8 minutes. Cool; remove and discard skins. Roughly chop chiles.
  • Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook chicken thighs until browned, about 2 minutes per side. Pour 1 cup chicken broth over thighs and bring to a boil. Cover skillet and reduce heat to medium. Cook the chicken thighs until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 5 minutes.

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Spread a thin layer of chile chicken sauce on the bottom of an 8-inch pie dish. Arrange a layer of corn tortillas over sauce, spread another layer of chile chicken sauce over the tortillas, and sprinkle Mexican cheese blend over sauce. Repeat layering process until all tortillas, sauce, and cheese are used, ending with a layer of cheese. Pour 1/2 cup reserved chicken broth over the top.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is melted and sauce is bubbling, about 30 minutes.

CHILI STUFFED ENCHILADAS



Chili Stuffed Enchiladas image

Very simple, hearty and delicious take on enchiladas. The last time we made enchiladas, we ran out of the chicken mixture we were using for the filling...but we had some leftover chili, so my resourceful DH used that to stuff the last tortilla. The results were fabulous! Tonight, it was chili filling all the way!!

Provided by Not Linda

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 40m

Yield 8-10 Enchiladas, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

8 -10 small flour tortillas
12 ounces enchilada sauce (I recommend Trader's Joe's)
3 cups chili (amount approximate, thicker is better, use your leftovers!!)
1/2 cup queso sauce (I recommend Tostitos brand Monterey Jack)
1 cup four-cheese Mexican blend cheese
sour cream (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Warm tortillas for about 30 seconds in microwave, enough to make them soft and pliable.
  • Pour enough enchilada sauce to just cover bottom of greased 9 x 12 glass baking dish.
  • Fill each tortilla with about 1/3 cup chili (no need to warm up if you are using leftovers). Roll each tortilla and place seam side down in the sauce-lined pan.
  • Pour remaining enchilada sauce over the stuffed tortillas, being sure to completely cover all of them. Use a spoon to spread over any exposed areas.
  • Warm queso slightly then drizzle lightly over tortillas.
  • Finish by topping with shredded cheese.
  • Bake at 350F for 30 minutes, until sauce is bubbly.
  • Serve with a dollop of sour cream, if desired.

small bunch coriander, chopped
4 corn tortillas
100g low-fat soured cream
30g grated cheddar

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a pan. Fry the peppers and onion until soft, about 10 mins. Add the beans, fajita spice mix, chopped tomatoes and some seasoning. Bubble for 5 mins to reduce the tomatoes a little, then stir in most of the coriander. Heat the grill and warm the tortillas in the microwave for 30 seconds.
  • Spread a quarter of the pepper and onion mixture over the base of an ovenproof dish (a round one, if possible) or frying pan. Top with some of the soured cream and a warm tortilla, then repeat the layers three more times, finishing off with a final layer of soured cream. Sprinkle over the cheese and grill for 5 mins, or until golden and bubbling. Scatter with the remaining coriander before serving.

Tips:

  • To make the chili filling, you can use ground beef, turkey, or chicken. If you're using ground beef, be sure to drain off the excess grease before adding it to the pot.
  • For a spicier chili, add more chili powder or cayenne pepper to taste. You can also add a diced jalapeño pepper for an extra kick.
  • If you don't have enchilada sauce, you can make your own by blending together tomatoes, chili peppers, and spices. You can also use salsa as a substitute.
  • For a creamier filling, add a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt to each tortilla before rolling it up.
  • To prevent the pie from getting soggy, be sure to drain the chili and enchilada sauce before adding them to the casserole dish.
  • If you're short on time, you can use store-bought tortillas for this recipe. However, if you have the time, making your own tortillas is definitely worth the effort.
  • Serve the chili enchilada pie with your favorite toppings, such as sour cream, guacamole, salsa, and shredded cheese.
