Provided by Tyler Florence

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h15m

Yield 16 enchiladas, 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 1/2 pounds skinless boneless chicken breast
Salt and pepper
2 teaspoons cumin powder
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 teaspoon Mexican Spice Blend
1 red onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup frozen corn, thawed
5 canned whole green chiles, seeded and coarsely chopped
4 canned chipotle chiles, seeded and minced
1 (28-ounce) can stewed tomatoes
1/2 teaspoon all-purpose flour
16 corn tortillas
1 1/2 cups enchilada sauce, canned
1 cup shredded Cheddar and Jack cheeses
Garnish: chopped cilantro leaves, chopped scallions, sour cream, chopped tomatoes

Steps:

  • Coat large saute pan with oil. Season chicken with salt and pepper. Brown chicken over medium heat, allow 7 minutes each side or until no longer pink. Sprinkle chicken with cumin, garlic powder and Mexican spices before turning. Remove chicken to a platter, allow to cool.
  • Saute onion and garlic in chicken drippings until tender. Add corn and chiles. Stir well to combine. Add canned tomatoes, saute 1 minute.

GREEN CHICKEN ENCHILADAS



Green Chicken Enchiladas image

This is one of my favorite ways to reinvent rotisserie or leftover chicken. This weeknight favorite is excellent if you're a meal prepper, and the homemade tomatillo salsa is awesome even on its own served with tortilla chips.

Provided by Kardea Brown

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h50m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 yellow onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 pound fresh tomatillos, husks and stems removed, coarsely chopped
3 jalapeños, halved, seeded, and coarsely chopped
Juice of 1 lime
1/2 cup packed fresh cilantro leaves and stems, plus more for garnish
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Pinch sugar
Nonstick cooking spray, for the baking dish
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 yellow onion, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 teaspoons ground cumin
3 cups skinned and shredded rotisserie chicken
2 cups crumbled queso fresco, plus more for garnish
One 8-ounce carton sour cream
3 to 4 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese
10 soft taco-size flour tortillas
Chopped red onion for garnish, optional

Steps:

  • Make the tomatillo salsa: Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the tomatillos, jalapeños, and 1/2 cup water. Bring to a boil; reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer until the tomatillos are softened, about 10 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a food processor or blender. Add the lime juice and cilantro. Process until the mixture is smooth. Season to taste with salt, pepper and sugar.
  • For the enchiladas: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Coat a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. Spoon a little of the tomatillo salsa in the bottom of the dish.
  • Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion, garlic and cumin and cook until the onion is tender, about 5 minutes. Combine the onion mixture, chicken, queso fresco, sour cream and 2 cups Monterey Jack in a large bowl.
  • Wrap the tortillas in a damp paper towel and microwave on high for 1 minute to soften. Divide the chicken filling evenly among the tortillas and roll up, burrito-style. Arrange in the prepared baking dish. Pour the remaining salsa on top and sprinkle with the remaining 1 to 2 cups Monterey Jack cheese.
  • Bake until the cheese is browned and bubbly and the enchiladas are warmed through, 30 to 35 minutes. Garnish with queso fresco, cilantro and red onion, if desired.

SHORTCUT CHICKEN ENCHILADAS



Shortcut Chicken Enchiladas image

This dish whips store-bought rotisserie chicken, salsa and beans into a quick enchilada bake that is ready in less than an hour. It's a great use for that leftover half of a chicken, but if you have a whole chicken, you can easily double the recipe to make 8 to 12 servings.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 50m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

One 15-ounce can refried beans (about 1 cup)
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
12 ounces (3 cups) shredded Monterey Jack cheese
1/2 rotisserie chicken, meat shredded (about 2 1/4 cups), bones and skin discarded
Freshly ground black pepper
One 16-ounce jar medium-spicy tomato salsa
Twelve 6-inch corn tortillas
Sour cream and pickled jalapenos, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Stir together the beans, oregano and 1 cup cheese in a bowl. Add the chicken, season with pepper and stir until evenly combined.
  • Stir the salsa together with 1 cup water in a bowl, then transfer 1 cup to cover the bottom of a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Stack the tortillas, wrap them in damp paper towels and microwave until warm and pliable, about 15 seconds.
  • Arrange the tortillas on a workspace, then divide the chicken filling among the tortillas (about 1/4-cup filling per tortilla). Roll the tortillas up like a cigar, then transfer them to the baking dish seam-side down, positioning the rolls so that the dish is filled evenly. Press the rolls gently with your hands so they begin to soak the sauce up. Pour the remaining salsa mixture over the rolled tortillas, then sprinkle with the remaining 2 cups cheese.
  • Bake the enchiladas until the cheese melts and the enchiladas are hot in the center, about 30 minutes. Serve hot with sour cream and pickled jalapenos.

CHICKEN ENCHILADAS

Mildly spicy and satisfying, these easy enchiladas stuffed with refried beans, onion and red pepper will be popular with the whole family

Provided by Sarah Cook

Categories     Dinner, Lunch, Main course

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 16

3 tbsp olive oil
2 red onions, sliced
2 red peppers, sliced
3 red chillies, 2 deseeded and chopped, 1 sliced
small bunch coriander, stalks finely chopped, leaves roughly chopped - plus extra to serve (optional)
2 garlic cloves, crushed
1 tbsp ground coriander
1 tbsp cumin seeds
6 skinless chicken breasts, cut into small chunks
415g can refried beans (we used Discovery)
198g can sweetcorn, drained
700ml bottle passata
1 tsp golden caster sugar
10 tortillas
2 x 142ml pots soured cream
200g cheddar, grated

Steps:

  • Heat 2 tbsp of the oil in your largest pan, then fry the onions, peppers, chopped chilli and coriander stalks with half the garlic for 10 mins until soft. Stir in 2 tsp ground coriander and 2 tsp cumin seeds, then fry for 1 min more. Meanwhile, in another frying pan, fry the chicken in the remaining oil, in batches, until browned - add it to the pan of veg as it is done.
  • Stir the beans, sweetcorn, coriander leaves and 150ml of the passata into the veg and chicken. In a bowl, mix the rest of the passata with the other crushed garlic clove, the remaining spices and the sugar, then set aside.
  • To assemble, lay the tortillas onto a board and divide the chicken mixture between them, folding over the ends and rolling up to seal. Divide the passata sauce into the dishes you are using, then top with the enchiladas. Dot over the soured cream, sprinkle with grated cheese and scatter with the sliced chilli.
  • Cool and freeze (see freezing tips, below) or, if eating straight away, heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6, then bake for 30 mins, scattering with more coriander leaves to serve, if you like.

CHICKEN ENCHILADAS



Chicken Enchiladas image

First Place winner in a newspaper recipe contest, not mine, but my aunt had clipped it out. These enchiladas are sooo good, they taste as good as my favorite Mexican restrauant serves. The last time I made I ended up with 16, I used a whole chicken though. I did add about 1/2 cup half-and-half to thin the sauce, since I had some I need to use up, regular milk would work too.
