CHICKEN WITH CHILAQUILES AND SALSA VERDE



Chicken with Chilaquiles and Salsa Verde image

Categories     Cheese     Chicken     Pepper     Sauté     Quick & Easy     Cinco de Mayo     Dinner     Feta     Tortillas     Gourmet

Yield Makes 4 to 6 main-course servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup sour cream
3 to 4 tablespoons milk
1 3/4 cups Mexican salsa verde such as Desert Pepper Trading Company or Frontera (sometimes called tomatillo sauce; from a 16-oz jar)
1 3/4 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth (14 fl oz)
2 1/2 to 3 cups coarsely shredded cooked chicken (from a 2-lb rotisserie chicken, skin removed)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
6 cups coarsely crushed tortilla chips (not low-fat, baked, or flavored; from a 16-oz bag) plus broken chips remaining in bag (about 1 cup)
1/2 cup crumbled feta (2 oz)
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro

Steps:

  • Stir together sour cream and just enough milk to get a thick pourable consistency.
  • Bring salsa and broth to a boil in a 5- to 6-quart heavy pot over moderately high heat. Add chicken, salt, and pepper and cook, stirring, until chicken is heated through, 1 to 2 minutes, then stir in 6 cups tortilla chips and cook until chips are softened (but not mushy), about 1 minute.
  • Transfer chilaquiles to a large platter. Sprinkle with feta, cilantro, and 1 cup broken chips and serve immediately, with thinned sour cream on the side.

Tips:

  • Use boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs. This will make the cooking process quicker and easier.
  • Make sure the chicken is evenly coated in the lime juice and spices. This will help to ensure that the chicken is flavorful throughout.
  • Cook the chicken over medium-high heat. This will help to create a nice sear on the outside of the chicken while keeping the inside moist.
  • Reduce the heat to medium-low and continue to cook the chicken until it is cooked through. This should take about 10-12 minutes per side.
  • Make the salsa verde while the chicken is cooking. This will allow the flavors to meld together.
  • Serve the chicken with the salsa verde, sour cream, and tortillas. You can also add other toppings, such as avocado, cilantro, or cheese.
  • Enjoy!

Conclusion:

This lime chicken with salsa verde and sour cream is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The chicken is flavorful and juicy, and the salsa verde is the perfect complement. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
