TURKEY ENCHILADAS WITH FIRE-ROASTED TOMATILLOS

Steps:

• For the tomatillos: Preheat the broiler and set the tomatillos, garlic, jalapenos and onions out on a foil-lined tray. Drizzle the ingredients with a little olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place the vegetables under the broiler 3 to 4 inches from the top and cook until the tomatillos and onions are well charred, 5 to 6 minutes. Turn the vegetables and broil until charred all over, 4 to 5 minutes longer. Remove from the oven and transfer to a blender with the chicken stock, cilantro and lime juice. Puree until completely smooth. Place in a large saute pan over medium-low heat and warm through. Season with salt and pepper.
• For the turkey enchiladas: Set a large saute pan over medium-high heat and coat with the oil. Add the turkey and garlic and brown well, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the cumin, coriander, paprika, oregano and onions and cook until well browned, 10 minutes longer. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a platter and let cool.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F and grease a 9-by-13-inch gratin dish with oil.
• Spoon some of the tomatillo sauce into the bottom of the pan to lightly coat it. Dip each tortilla into the heated tomatillo sauce (this will both flavor the tortilla and also make it more pliable). Spoon 1/4 cup of the ground turkey filling onto each tortilla. Divide 1/2 cup of the shredded Jack cheese between each tortilla. Fold the tortillas over the filling and place them seam-side down in the gratin dish. Place 6 enchiladas in the pan and top with more tomatillo sauce so they are just barely covered. Top with remaining 1/2 cup of Jack cheese and sprinkle with crumbled queso fresco. Place on a tray (to catch any drips) and bake until the cheese has melted and the sauce is bubbling, 15 to 17 minutes. Finish under the broiler to brown further if desired. Remove from the oven, let cool slightly and garnish with the chopped cilantro. Serve with the sour cream on the side.

TURKEY ENCHILADAS

Steps:

• While preparing Thanksgiving dinner, make the enchilada sauce:
• In a large bowl, combine the tomatoes, onions, ancho and arbol chiles, garlic, celery, carrots, coriander, cumin, and dill and stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper then transfer to the roasting pan you will roast the turkey in.
• Roast the turkey according to your recipe. As the turkey roasts, its juices and fat will drip down and cook the enchilada sauce ingredients. (Keep in mind that if you baste the turkey with the turkey juices, they'll be flavored with your enchilada sauce ingredients. To avoid flavoring your turkey this way, baste with melted butter, turkey or chicken stock, or low-sodium chicken broth-or a combination of these.)
• When you remove the turkey from the oven to rest, check to see that the vegetables are tender and if necessary return them to the oven to finish cooking.
• Working in batches, transfer the enchilada mixture to a food processor or blender and process until smooth-if necessary, use a few splashes of water to loosen or thin the mixture and create a smooth paste. Season with salt and pepper. DO AHEAD: The enchilada sauce can be prepared ahead and refrigerated, in an airtight container, up to 3 days, or frozen, up to 3 months.
• Assemble the enchiladas:
• Preheat the oven to 350°F and butter 2 (9- by 13-inch) baking dishes. Spread about 1 cup of the enchilada sauce in the bottom of each dish.
• Pick the meat off the leftover turkey carcass and transfer to a large bowl-you'll need about 4 cups of meat. Add half the remaining enchilada sauce, along with half the queso fresco and half the queso Chihuahua, and stir to combine.
• On a work surface, spread about 1 cup of the turkey filling on the bottom half of 1 tortilla and roll it up burrito-style, folding in the sides to seal them closed. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling. Arrange the enchiladas tightly in the 2 prepared baking dishes then cover with the remaining sauce, followed by the remaining queso fresco and queso Chihuahua. DO AHEAD: The turkey enchiladas can be assembled up to this point, covered, and refrigerated, up to 24 hours, or frozen up to 3 months.

• water, cumin, pepper, and salt.
• Stir in the cooked onion and chicken.
• Wrap the tortillas in foil.
• Heat in a 350 degree oven for 10 to 15 minutes or until softened (if using a microwave, wrap the tortillas in a microwave-safe paper towel and micro-cook on high for 30 to 60 seconds until softened).
• Meanwhile, spray a 9 x 13 baking dish with non-stick coating.
• For each enchilada, spoon approximately 1/4 cup of the chicken mixture onto one tortilla; roll up.
• Place the tortilla, seam side down, in the baking dish.
• Repeat with the remaining filling and tortillas.
• For the sauce, in a medium mixing bowl combine soup, sour cream, milk, and jalapeno peppers; pour mixture over the enchiladas.
• Bake covered, in a 350 degree oven for about 40 minutes or until heated through.
• Sprinkle with the cheese.
• Bake the enchiladas, uncovered, for 4 to 5 minutes more until the cheese is melted.
• Garnish with cilantro, parsley, tomatoes, and sweet peppers if desired.
• NOTE: Usually I don't have chicken prepared in advance, so I use 4 chicken breast halves and sprinkle them with salt, pepper, and cumin.
• I either saute these or grill them until no longer pink.
• I shred the meat and proceed as usual with the recipe.
• The time to make does not include this step.

TURKEY ENCHILADAS

Steps:

• Preheat the over to 400℉.
• Preheat a large non-stick frying pan or skillet. Add the turkey and pan-fry it with finely chopped onion and red pepper for 5 minutes
• Stir regularly to break up the mince with a wooden spoon. When the minced turkey is browned add the tomato fruit sauce and the kidney beans
• Add the enchilada seasoning and stir. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook the turkey mixture for 10 minutes, stirring regularly
• Take the skillet from the heat. Lightly grease a shallow ovenproof dish with oil. Put a tortilla in the oven dish and add a couple of generous spoonfuls of the turkey mixture
• Roll up the tortilla and push to one side of the oven dish. Repeat with the remaining 5 tortillas
• Then spoon any of the remaining turkey mixture down the sides of the oven dish
• Sprinkle the tortillas with the cheese and bake for 15 mins or until the cheese is completely melted
• Take out of the oven and serve immediately
