Time 2h5m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons taco seasoning
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1/2 medium onion, chopped
Half of a 4-ounce can chopped green chiles, with liquid
4 ounces cream cheese, softened
Half of a .5-ounce packet ranch seasoning, such as Hidden Valley Original Ranch Salad Dressing and Seasoning Mix
Eight 8-inch flour tortillas
3 cups shredded Monterey Jack
1 1/2 cups picante sauce

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with cooking spray; set aside.
  • Place the chicken breasts on a jelly roll pan. Drizzle each breast on both sides with 1 tablespoon olive oil. In a small bowl, mix together the taco seasoning, cumin, oregano and black pepper; sprinkle evenly over both sides of the chicken breasts. Roast for 15 to 20 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the pan from the oven and allow to cool for 15 minutes. Shred the chicken and set aside.
  • Meanwhile, in a medium skillet over medium heat, melt the butter until shimmering, about 2 minutes. Add the onions and saute until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the green chiles and saute for 1 minute. Stir in the cream cheese, ranch seasoning and the shredded chicken. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the cream cheese melts, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Lay the tortillas flat on a clean dry surface and spoon 2 to 3 tablespoons of the chicken mixture down the center of each. Roll up the tortillas and place them, seam-side down, in the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle with the Monterey Jack. Pour the picante sauce over the rolled tortillas and cheese. Bake until browned and bubbly, 45 minutes.

CREAMY CHICKEN ENCHILADAS



Creamy Chicken Enchiladas image

Enchiladas have always been thought of as Mexican "soul food" because of their bright, reassuring flavors. These enchiladas suizas, or Swiss-style enchiladas, are simple to make and boast a creamy, savory texture.

Provided by Rick Bayless

Categories     main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 pounds plum tomatoes, may substitute round tomatoes or two 28-ounce cans good-quality whole tomatoes, drained
2 jalapeño peppers, or 3 serranos (to taste)
1 1/2 tablespoons lard or vegetable oil, plus extra for the tortillas
1 large white onion
2 cups chicken stock, plus extra as needed
kosher salt
1/2 cup sour cream, or thick crema or crème fraîche
2 cups coarsely shredded cooked chicken, preferably grilled, roasted, or rotisserie
2/3 cup Chihuahua cheese, or other Mexican melting cheese such as shredded quesadilla or asadero
12 corn tortillas
Cilantro sprigs, for garnish

Steps:

  • Roast the tomatoes and chiles on a baking sheet 4 inches below the broiler until they're darkly roasted with blackened and blistered spots, 5-6 minutes per side. (If using canned tomatoes, drain the tomatoes and set aside. Toast the chiles in a small dry skillet over medium heat, turning regularly, until they're soft and splotchy-black, about 5 minutes.)
  • Dice the onion, reserving a few rings for garnish. Heat the oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat; cook the diced onions, stirring regularly, until golden, about 7 minutes. Meanwhile, remove the tomatoes and chiles from the oven and cool.
  • Working over your baking sheet, pull off and discard the blackened tomato skins and, for round tomatoes, cut out the hard "cores" where the stems were attached. Transfer tomatoes and chiles to a food processor or blender, along with all the juices on the baking sheet. Blend to a smooth purée.
  • Add the puréed tomatoes and chiles to the onions and cook, stirring, until they darken in color and thicken to the consistency of tomato paste, 7-8 minutes. Stir in the broth, partially cover, and simmer 15 minutes. Whisk in the sour cream and season with 1 teaspoon of salt.
  • Lay the tortillas out on a baking sheet (2 sheets if you have them, for more even heating), and lightly brush both sides of the tortillas with lard or oil. Bake at 350 degrees F just long enough to warm through and soften, about 3 minutes. Stack the tortillas and cover with a towel to keep them warm and pliable.
  • Spread about ¼ cup of the sauce over the bottom of four to six 9-inch individual oven-proof serving dishes, or smear about 1 cup of the sauce over the bottom of a 13x9-inch baking dish. Working quickly while the tortillas are still pliable, roll a portion of the chicken into each tortilla, then line them up in the dishes, seam-side down. Cover with the remaining sauce, then sprinkle with the cheese. Bake until the enchiladas are hot and the cheese has browned slightly, about 15 minutes.
  • Garnish the enchiladas with reserved onion rings and cilantro sprigs before serving.

This recipe came out of a family circle magazine. It was a recipe that crisco put in the magazine, but they are wonderful enchiladas. I highly suggest you make the enchilada sauce rather than using the can stuff because it has excellent flavor.

Tips:

  • Prep the chicken beforehand: To save time, consider cooking the chicken in advance. Shred or dice it, then store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or freeze it for up to 3 months.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: Don't limit yourself to just one or two types of vegetables. Experiment with different combinations to create a more flavorful and colorful filling.
  • Don't overfill the tortillas: Be careful not to overstuff the tortillas, or they will be difficult to roll and may break apart.
  • Use a light hand with the sauce: Too much sauce can make the enchiladas soggy. Use just enough to coat the tortillas and keep them moist.
  • Bake until golden brown: Bake the enchiladas until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the tortillas are golden brown. This usually takes about 20 minutes.
  • Serve with your favorite toppings: Enchiladas are delicious on their own, but you can also serve them with your favorite toppings, such as guacamole, sour cream, salsa, or pico de gallo.

Conclusion:

Crisco Chicken Enchiladas are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for any occasion. With a few simple tips, you can create a dish that your family and friends will love. So next time you're looking for a quick and tasty meal, give Crisco Chicken Enchiladas a try!
