Roasted Green Chiles Food

MILE HIGH GREEN CHILI

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Arrange the halved tomatillos, Anaheim chiles, jalapenos, onion, and green bell pepper on a baking sheet. Drizzle the vegetables with 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
• Roast the vegetables in the preheated oven until they begin to show brown spots, about 30 minutes. Allow to cool, then chop vegetables into bite-size pieces.
• Heat 1 more tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over high heat, and pan-fry the pork until browned, sprinkling the meat with salt and black pepper as it cooks, about 12 minutes. Transfer the pork cubes to a slow cooker, and stir in the roasted vegetables. Mix in the tomatoes, garlic, beef bouillon cube, beer, oregano, parsley, cumin, and chili powder. Set the cooker on Low, cover, and cook until the pork is very tender, 4 to 6 hours.
• About 1/2 hour before serving, place the cream cheese into a bowl, and stir in about 1 tablespoon of the chili liquid until thoroughly combined. Continue stirring in chili broth, a tablespoon at a time, until the cream cheese is almost a liquid. Stir the cream cheese mixture back into the chili.

GREEN CHILE CHEESEBURGERS

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler to high.
• Begin by making the green chile salsa: Place the chiles on a roasting tray with the garlic and onions. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt, pepper and cumin and then place under the broiler to cook, 5 to 7 minutes. Once the skins have blistered and the onions have slightly charred around the edges, remove from the oven. Let cool slightly, then remove and discard the skins of the large chiles, along with the seeds and stems. Place the chile flesh, onions and garlic in a food processor. Add the lime juice and pulse 5 to 6 times to roughly chop the vegetables up; do not over chop as you want the salsa to be chunky and still have lots of texture where you can see pieces of the chile. Taste and season once more, then set aside as you prepare the burgers.
• For the burgers: Preheat an outdoor grill and wipe down the grates with an oil-blotted paper towel. This not only cleans the grill but creates a nonstick surface.
• Form the ground brisket into four 8-ounce patties about 1/2-inch thick. Make them slightly bigger in diameter than your buns, as they shrink when they cook. Also, add a dimple in the center as the burger puffs up in the middle when cooked, and this will ensure a flat, even patty. Sprinkle both sides with salt and pepper, and then place on the hot part of the grill. Cook for 5 to 7 minutes on one side, then flip the patties and top with the cheese. Close the grill or place a metal bowl over the top to melt the cheese and cook for 2 to 3 more minutes. Cut open the hamburger buns and lightly toast on the grill.
• To assemble, place the lettuce, onion and tomato on the base of the burger bun. Top with a grilled patty and place a heaping spoonful of roasted green chile salsa on top. Smear the top burger bun with mayo, if desired, and place the top half of the burger bun on top. Serve.

GREEN CHILE NEW MEXICAN STYLE

Steps:

• Heat oil and add onion. Cook about 5 minutes and add garlic.
• Cook another minute and stir in flour. Cook for 1-2 minutes stirring so flour doesn't burn and also so that it cooks and you don't get a floury taste.
• Add chilies. Pour in stock and seasonings. Taste for salt and adjust if necessary.
• Bring to boil over medium heat and cook for about 15 to 30 minutes on a low simmer covered.
• If you want it thicker add more broth or water. This can cook for longer if you want your chile a softer texture.

BAKED GREEN CHILE CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375° F. and spray an oven safe baking dish (approximately 11 x 7 inch) with cooking spray. Pour 1/4 cup of enchilada sauce into the bottom of the prepared dish.
• In a small bowl combine the chili powder, cumin, garlic powder salt and pepper. Coat the chicken breast evenly with the spice mixture and place them in the baking dish. Top the chicken with the strips of green chiles and pour the remaining enchilada sauce on top. Sprinkle on the shredded cheese and cover the baking dish with foil.
• Bake for 20 minutes then remove the foil and bake another 5-10 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature is 165°. Garnish with chopped cilantro before serving.
• While the chicken is baking prepare the rice. In a bowl stir together the cooked rice, enchilada sauce, green chiles, cilantro, salt and pepper. Taste for seasoning and serve with the green chile chicken.

ROASTED GREEN CHILE STEW

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a Dutch oven or heavy saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the cubed pork, garlic, onion, cumin and oregano. Cook and stir until pork is browned.
• Cook and stir for a few more minutes, then pour in the vegetable broth. Reduce the heat to low, and simmer for about 30 minutes.
• Add the potato to the stew, and simmer for about 45 minutes. You can roast your chilies during this time, peel, seed chop and add to the stew along with the serrano peppers. If the stew becomes too dry, add a little water. When the potatoes are soft and the pork is tender, add the tomatoes. Cook for about 10 minutes, then remove from the heat and serve.

ROASTED GREEN CHILE-CHICKEN ENCHILADAS

Steps:

• Make the salsa: Put the tomatillos, jalapenos, and onion in a saucepan with the vinegar and water to cover. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and poach until the tomatillos are soft, about 10 minutes. Drain. Put the vegetables in a blender, add the cumin, and puree. Add the cilantro, lime juice, and salt, and pulse to combine. Set aside.
• Meanwhile, place the poblano peppers directly over the flame on a gas stove and cook, turning with tongs, until the skin is charred and blackened. (Or, if you have an electric stove, put the chiles on a baking sheet and broil, turning with tongs, until the skin is blackened.) Skin the peppers; then seed, core, and dice them.
• Heat a 2-count of olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until softened and caramelized, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the garlic and cook 1 minute. Stir in the cumin and cook 1 minute. Then sprinkle on the flour and cook, stirring, 1 more minute. Gradually pour in the stock, stirring constantly. Bring to a simmer, stirring to make sure the flour doesn't stick to the bottom of the pan; the liquid will thicken. Fold in the chicken, diced peppers, and cilantro, and season well with salt and pepper.
• To assemble the dish: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Get your self a large baking dish. Dip a tortilla into the tomatilla salsa and put it on a cutting board. Put a big scoop of the chicken mixture in the center, sprinkle with a little of the cheese, and roll the tortilla like a cigar to enclose the filling. Use a spatula to place it seam side down in the baking dish. Continue to fill all of the tortillas and put them in the baking dish. Pour the remaining tomatilla salsa over the top and sprinkle with the remaining cheese. Bake uncovered for about 30 minutes until bubbly and cracked on top. Serve hot with the guacamole and sour cream.
• Halve and pit the avocados. Scoop out the flesh with a tablespoon into a mixing bowl. Mash the avocados with a fork, leaving them somewhat chunky. Add the remaining ingredients, and fold everything together to gently mix. Lay a piece of plastic wrap right on the surface of the guacamole so it doesn't brown and refrigerate 1 hour before serving.

ROASTED GREEN CHILES

Steps:

• Wash the peppers & pat dry.
• Leave peppers whole & place on a baking sheet, leaving at least ½" of space between peppers.
• Turn the oven to broil & move the oven rack to the closest setting to the broiler.
• Broil the peppers until the pepper skins have blistered & turned black in places, about 3 minutes.
• Turn peppers over & broil another 2 mins, until the skin is spotted with black.
• Remove the baking sheet from oven & immediately place peppers in a paper bag. Fold top of bag over to seal. Let sit for 10 minutes
• Remove peppers from bag. The skin will be easy to remove from the peppers. Skin & seed peppers.
• Coarsely chop green chilis.
• Use right away or freeze in cubes & store in a small plastic bag for the freezer.

ROASTED GREEN CHILES

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Begin by preparing your heat source. You will need something extremely hot to char the chiles with. An open flame-such as a grill-is best, but you can also roast them in a hot pan or under a broiler.
• Turn up the heat and begin roasting chiles by turning them frequently over heat source. Roast them until the skins are blackened and blistering.
• The skins do not need to be solid black, just blackened in areas and the rest of the skin should appear loosened and browned.
• It should take about 10 minutes over an open flame or in a broiler, and 15 to 20 minutes if you roast them in a pan.
• Once skin is thoroughly charred, remove chiles from heat source and place in a bowl.
• Cover bowl loosely to allow hot roasted chiles to create steam. You can cover bowl with aluminum foil, a lid, or a dishtowel.
• Let chiles steam for about 10 minutes. This helps to loosen skins even more, but this step can be skipped if time is of the essence.
• When chiles have cooled enough to where you can touch them, begin peeling off the skin. It should peel off easily, but if it is being stubborn, you can run the chile under warm water while peeling. This will remove some of the chiles flavorful oils and should only be done if the skin is hard to remove.
• If you are using green chiles for rellenos (stuffed chiles), use a knife to cut a 2-inch slit from stem and down side and use a spoon to carefully scoop out seeds. Roasted chiles tear very easily, so go slowly and take your time.
• If using the chiles for anything else, you can cut off stem portion and slit remaining chile down the entire side to open it up.
• Use a spoon to scrape off seeds. Discard seeds and stems and use roasted green chile in your recipe.
