FISH TACOS WITH CREAMY CHIPOTLE SAUCE AND PICO DE GALLO

Steps:

• For the tortillas: Brush a hot griddle with oil and heat the tortillas on each side to brown them up a bit. Wrap them in foil to keep hot until it's time to eat.
• For the fish: In a bowl, combine the chile powder, garlic salt, lime juice and 2 tablespoons of the olive oil. Toss the mixture with the fish in a shallow container and marinate for 15 minutes.
• For the chipotle sauce: In the meantime, combine the mayonnaise, cilantro, honey, chipotles, lime juice and salt in a food processor and blend until creamy and smooth. Transfer the sauce to a container (I like to store it in a squeeze bottle) and refrigerate until ready to serve.
• Put the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the fish and cook for 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove to a plate and flake with a fork.
• To build each taco, spoon some fish onto 2 stacked tortillas (see Cook's Note). Top with some chipotle sauce, cabbage, cilantro and Pico de Gallo.
• In a medium bowl, combine the tomatoes, onions, jalapenos, cilantro and lime juice. Season with salt and pepper.

• If serving tortillas chips. Heat oil for frying in a shallow frying pan. (you don't need a lot of oil. Just fill a small pan 1/2 inch). Slice corn tortilla into thin strips. When oil is hot, add strips and fry until light golden. Remove on a plate lined with paper towel. Season with salt. Set aside.

CHIPOTLE CREAM

CHIPOTLE CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a skillet over medium-high heat and sauté the shallot and garlic for 2 to 3 minutes; add the broth and wine and sauté another 3 minutes.
• Reduce heat to medium-low and whisk in the sour cream, then the pureed chipotle.

CREAMY CHIPOTLE CHICKEN BREAST

Steps:

• Season the chicken breasts with garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
• Heat oil in a large skillet to medium high.
• Once the oil is hot, add the chicken breasts and cook for 3 minutes per side, turning once. They have to look lightly golden. Remove the chicken and place on a plate.
• While the chicken is cooking, add the heavy cream, milk, LA MORENA®Chipotles in Adobo, and powdered chicken bouillon into your blender. Process for a couple of minutes until it has a fine texture.
• Using a paper towel, clean up any excess oil from the skillet where you cooked the chicken. Turn the heat to medium and pour the creamy chipotle mixture in to slowly cook. Make sure to watch the heat, as the sauce has to be gently simmering, NOT boiling. Too much heat will affect the cream and it will curdle. Cook for 4 minutes and then add the chicken breasts.
• Cook for 4 more minutes, turning the chicken breasts if needed to have an even cooking.

STEAKS WITH CHIPOTLE CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• Trim some of the excess fat from the perimeter of the steaks, if desired. Season the steaks generously on both sides with salt and pepper. Let sit at room temperature for 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, finely chop the onion and mince the garlic and chipotle peppers.
• Turn on an exhaust fan or open a kitchen window.
• Heat a large, heavy skillet over high heat. Add the oil and swirl to coat the bottom of the skillet. Add the steaks and cook undisturbed for 4 to 5 minutes or until they have formed enough of a crust on the bottom to release easily. Use tongs to turn them over and cook for 4 to 5 minutes (medium-rare) or longer for the desired degree of doneness; moisture will just begin to accumulate on the surface of the steaks when they are medium-rare. Transfer the steaks to a plate and cover loosely with aluminum foil to keep them warm.
• Reduce the heat to medium; add the onion, garlic and a generous pinch of salt to the skillet. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes, stirring, until the onion and garlic have softened, then stir in the cumin and oregano. Add the beer and cook for a minute or so, using a wooden spoon to dislodge any browned bits. Add the broth, cream and chipotle peppers. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes to meld the flavors.
• Carefully transfer to a blender; be sure to remove the center knob of the blender lid so steam can escape. Place a towel over the lid opening. Puree until smooth. Strain the sauce through a fine-mesh strainer and return to the skillet. Squeeze in about 1 teaspoon of juice from the lime half and add any accumulated juices from the steaks. Taste, and add seasoning or lime juice as needed.
• Cut the steaks crosswise into thick slices and divide them among individual plates. Pour the sauce over and/or around the meat.
