Categories     main-dish

Time 1h45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 22

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
8 ounces pork blade steak, diced
Garlic salt
Freshly ground pepper
2 cloves garlic, minced
3 4-ounce cans green chile peppers, drained and diced
1 cup canned diced tomatoes
1 1/2 teaspoons red pepper flakes
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup New Mexico red chili powder
2 cloves garlic
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
Garlic salt
Freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
8 ounces beef top sirloin, diced
12 6-inch corn tortillas, toasted or lightly fried
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Nonstick cooking spray
4 large eggs
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
Shredded lettuce and diced tomatoes, for garnish

Steps:

  • Make the green sauce: Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Season the pork with garlic salt and pepper, add to the pan and brown on all sides. Add the minced garlic and cook 30 seconds, then add the chiles, tomatoes, red pepper flakes and 3 cups water. Simmer until the pork is tender, about 1 hour. Combine the flour and 1 cup water in a blender until smooth, then whisk into the sauce and simmer until the sauce thickens, about 5 more minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make the red sauce: Process the chili powder, garlic and 5 cups water in a blender until smooth. Season the flour with garlic salt and pepper in a shallow dish. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Toss the beef in the flour, then add to the skillet to brown on all sides. Pour in the chili powder mixture and simmer until the beef is tender, about 15 minutes.
  • Make the enchiladas: Preheat the broiler. Place 4 tortillas on a baking sheet. Sprinkle each with cheese, then top with green sauce on one side and red on the other. Repeat to make two more layers. Top the stacks with more cheese and broil until melted, 3 to 5 minutes. Meanwhile, mist a nonstick skillet with cooking spray and fry the eggs as desired, then season with salt and pepper. Top each enchilada stack with lettuce, tomatoes and a fried egg.

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups (packed) Pork Carnitas (Mexican Pulled Pork) or other shredded meat (see notes)
1 tbsp olive oil
1 cup tinned black beans or red kidney beans (, drained)
1 can (15oz / 400g) corn kernels (, drained)
2 cups shredded cheese ((any good melting cheese))
8 tortillas
3 cups (750ml / 25oz) Enchilada Sauce ((homemade or store bought))

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350F/180C.
  • Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a pan over high heat. Add the pork carnitas and cook until the bottom is nicely browned - about 1 1/2 minutes. Do not turn, just make the bottom crispy (to keep the pulled pork as moist as possible), then remove the pulled pork into a bowl. It does not matter if the top isn't heated through, it will heat in the oven.
  • Add the corn, black beans, 1/2 cup enchilada sauce and 1/2 cup cheese into the bowl and mix to combine.
  • Spread 1/2 cup of Enchilada Sauce on the bottom of the baking dish.
  • Place 1/2 packed cup of filling (from step 3) into a tortilla and roll up and place in the baking dish.
  • Pour over the remaining Enchilada Sauce, and bake for 10 minutes.
  • Remove from oven and scatter the cheese on, then bake for a further 10 to 15 minutes until the cheese is bubbling and golden.
  • Let stand for 5 minutes before serving.

Traditional New Mexico Red Chile Cheese

Provided by Bobby Flay

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h30m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

6 corn tortillas
Oil (optional)
1 1/2 to 2 cups red chile sauce, recipe follows
1 cup shredded cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese
1/2 small chopped onion
2 fried eggs
1 cup shredded lettuce
3/4 cup chopped tomato
20 dried chile pods
1/4 cup water
6 garlic cloves
Salt
Pinch Mexican oregano
1 pound diced pork (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Each serving will contain 3 corn tortillas. Take the tortilla and dip it in hot oil or dip it in the red chile sauce and put on plate. Top this with cheese and onion and more sauce and put another dipped tortilla on top and repeat this 2 times. Heat in the oven or under the broiler until cheese melts and top with a fried egg. Garnish the plate with the lettuce and tomato. You can serve this with fried potatoes or pinto beans.
  • To make a casserole, you can layer the above in a baking dish with the final layer on top being cheese, do not put eggs on the casserole. Bake for about 20 minutes, until all is warm and melted. Garnish with lettuce and tomato. Can also serve with sour cream, chopped olives and guacamole.
  • Remove the stems and seeds of the chile pods. Soak the pods in water or simmer on stove for about 10 minutes. Place chile and garlic in a blender with 1/4 cup water and puree until smooth. (Use 6 to 8 pods of chile and 2 cloves of garlic at a time, which will make the puree smoother and easier to work with.) Add more water as needed to get a medium consistency. In a sauce pan, add pureed chile with Mexican Oregano and salt to taste. Bring to a slow boil, and then simmer for 20 minutes. Pork can be browned and added to sauce while simmering.

STACKED ENCHILADAS



Stacked Enchiladas image

My husband made a bachelor's version of this when we were dating in college. I've since added some healthier stuff to the mix. It's a favorite with the kids because they can choose what they want in their "stack" and it's a great alternative to eating out since it's so fast. Just dump and heat. Enjoy!

Categories     Meat

Time 8m

Yield 8 stacked enchiladas, 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 lb lean ground beef
1 (13 ounce) can enchilada sauce
1 (15 ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed
1 (15 ounce) can sweet corn
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
16 corn tortillas

Steps:

  • In a small frying pan, brown then drain the ground beef.
  • In a small sauce pot, heat enchilada sauce.
  • In another sauce pot, combine the black beans and corn. Cover and heat.
  • I like to warm the tortillas in the microwave then put them in one of those handy plastic tortilla warmers. It's just better when they're warm and soft. (If you really want to go all out, try making your own tortillas with masa mix. You just add water and they taste sooooo much better!).
  • Now just make an assembly line. I usually have the two sauce pans on the front burners and the rest on paper plates to the side. Pile on in this order: tortilla, meat, bean/corn combo, sauce, cheese. Repeat so you have two layers. Yummy and quick!
  • Some other good toppings include sour cream, guacamole and olives.

Tips:

- Use corn tortillas instead of flour tortillas for a more authentic flavor and texture. - To make your own enchilada sauce, blend together tomatoes, onions, garlic, chili peppers, and spices. - If you don't have time to make your own sauce, use a store-bought enchilada sauce. Just be sure to choose one that is flavorful and not too mild. - Use a variety of fillings in your enchiladas. Some popular options include shredded chicken, beef, pork, beans, and vegetables. - Be generous with the cheese. Enchiladas are all about the melted cheese, so don't be afraid to use a lot of it. - Bake your enchiladas until they are golden brown and bubbly. This will ensure that they are cooked through and the cheese is melted and gooey. - Serve your enchiladas with your favorite toppings, such as sour cream, guacamole, salsa, and cilantro.
