Categories     main-dish

Time 1h40m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 22

1 cup beef stock
2 dried ancho chiles, stemmed and seeded
2 poblano chiles
16 corn tortillas, cut into 1-inch strips
All natural cooking spray, for spraying tortilla strips
Salt
2 tablespoons vegetable or olive oil
1 pound Mexican chorizo, casings removed
1 pound ground beef
One 15-ounce can black beans, drained
1 tablespoon ground coriander
1 tablespoon ground cumin
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 onion, chopped
2 1/2 cups shredded Cheddar or a blend of Monterey Jack, pepper Jack, Cheddar, Chihuahua, asadero or any easy melting cheeses of choice (about 12 ounces)
1 cup sour cream
1 ripe avocado, chopped
1 lime, juiced
Pickled jalapeno slices, for garnish
Chopped romaine or iceberg lettuce, for garnish
Chopped tomatoes, for garnish
Chopped red onions, for garnish

Steps:

  • For the casserole: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Bring the beef stock to a simmer in a pot; add the ancho chiles and just enough water to cover and cook to reconstitute them. When softened, transfer to a food processor and puree.
  • Char the poblanos evenly over a flame or under the broiler. Cool in a covered bowl, and then peel, seed, chop and reserve.
  • Arrange the tortilla strips on baking sheets, spray with cooking spray and season with salt. Bake to deeply golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Heat the oil, 2 turns of the pan, in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chorizo and brown, crumbling the meat. Add the beef and continue to brown and crumble the meat. Add in the beans, coriander, cumin, garlic, onions, poblanos and ancho puree and cook together a few minutes to combine the flavors.
  • Layer half of the tortilla strips in a casserole dish and top with the chorizo and beef mixture. Cool and store for a make-ahead meal (store the remaining tortilla strips in a foil pouch until using), or bake to serve. To bake, top the room-temperature casserole with the remaining tortilla strips and the cheese and bake at 375 degrees F until bubbly and hot through, 40 to 45 minutes.
  • For the avocado cream: Whiz up the sour cream, avocado and lime juice in a food processor.
  • Top the casserole with the pickled jalapenos, lettuce, tomatoes and onions and dollop the avocado cream over top (or pass at table).

LAYERED TOSTADA CASSEROLE RECIPE



Layered Tostada Casserole Recipe image

Provided by Dr_Mom

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (15 ounce) can refried beans
1 tablespoon taco seasoning (your choice, I use Penzy's)
1 pound ground meat (beef or chicken, your choice)
1 medium onion, chopped
1 tablespoon chili powder (again your choice of brands) mixed into 1/2 cup water, chicken broth or beef broth (it's important to dissolve the chili powder in the liquid to make sure that it's evenly distributed)
1 (15 ounce) can tomatoes with green chilis, diced
2 cups cheese, shredded, I use a mixture of cheddar & Jack
Black olives, sliced
Tortilla chips for garnish

Steps:

  • CHILI: Brown meat & onions in pan, when browned, add tomatoes and chili water mixture and simmer for 30 minutes. Meantime: Preheat oven to 350 degrees fahrenheit. . Place the refried beans into the bottom of a 9" round casserole pan and mash with the taco seasoning. Cover with half of the cheese. Spread the chili over the cheese layer, cover with the rest of the cheese and sprinkle with the olives. Bake in oven for 30 minutes until heated through and the cheese is melted. Serve with tortilla chips.

Tips:

  • To ensure a crispy and flavorful casserole, use a combination of corn and flour tortillas.
  • Don't overcrowd the casserole dish. Arrange the tortillas in a single layer, slightly overlapping, to prevent sogginess.
  • For a zesty twist, add a layer of salsa verde or pico de gallo between the tortilla layers.
  • If you like a cheesy casserole, use a blend of shredded cheddar, Monterey Jack, and mozzarella cheese.
  • For a smoky flavor, roast the poblano peppers before adding them to the casserole.
