TURKEY ENCHILADAS WITH FIRE-ROASTED TOMATILLOS



Turkey Enchiladas with Fire-Roasted Tomatillos image

Provided by Guy Fieri

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 23

1 1/2 pounds tomatillos, husked and cut in quarters
3 cloves garlic
2 jalapenos, stemmed and seeded
1 small sweet onion, rough chopped
Olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup low-sodium chicken stock
1/2 bunch fresh cilantro
Juice of 2 limes
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 pound lean ground turkey
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 small yellow onion, finely diced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Eight 8-inch flour tortillas
1 cup shredded Jack cheese
1/2 cup crumbled queso fresco
Chopped fresh cilantro, for garnish
2 cups sour cream, for serving

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.

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 1h45m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 cups turkey meat (I mixed white and dark, cooked, shredded)
3 ancho chilies, pods (dried)
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
2 teaspoons kosher salt
4 ounces diced tomatoes with garlic onions and chilies (any brand, I used my homemade)
2 fresh garlic cloves
3/4 cup chopped cilantro
3/4 cup chopped green onion
1 cup crumbled mexican white cheese
1 (20 count) package medium flour tortillas
1 (8 ounce) package Mexican blend cheese, shredded
1 (8 ounce) container sour cream
1 (28 ounce) can green enchilada sauce (La Victoria, Old El Paso, etc.)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Place chili pods in small pan with enough water to cover them. Add 1 tsp Kosher salt. Bring to a boil, cover and reduce heat. Simmer for 30 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool until no longer uncomfortable to touch. Remove the stem and drop into the blender bowl. I don't bother to remove the seeds but it's up to you.
  • Add 8 ounces of diced tomatoes, garlic cloves, cider vinegar and the other tsp of Kosher salt. Blend on high until fully liquified. Set aside.
  • Place turkey meat in a large bowl. Add 1/2 cup of the chopped green onions and 1/2 cup of the chopped cilantro. Stir until well blended.
  • Now add the chili sauce to the meat and stir well. Add the Mexican crumbled cheese and stir until you are satisfied that all ingredients are well distributed througout.
  • Lightly cover the bottom and sides of two 9X13 baking pans with cooking spray. Take tortillas out of the package and wrap them in a moist, clean dish towel. Place in microwave for 30 to 45 seconds and bring them to your work area (careful, they may be hot! Using the microwave softens the tortillas and helps avoid tears).
  • Now is the time to stuff and cook. Remember that the number of enchiladas you have at the end is directly proportional to how fat you stuff them. As a rule, I use three slightly rounded tablespoons of the filling per tortilla. But, "slightly" means different things to different people so play with it. Arrange the stuffed tortillas in each pan so that there is no space between them. I ended up with a total of 14 enchiladas.
  • With a teaspoon, dot the top of the enchiladas with sour cream until you have used it all up. Now take a butter knife and spread the sour cream until it forms a thin layer.
  • Open the can of green enchilada sauce and pour over the enchiladas until the sauce comes up to at least half way up. The enchiladas DO NOT need to be fully covered by the sauce but do try to pour some of the sauce over the top of each one if possible.
  • Spread the 8 ounces of Mexican blend cheese evenly over all of the enchiladas. Spread the rest of the chopped green onions and cilantro evenly as well. For the final touch, decorate with the sliced black olives.
  • Put in the middle rack of your oven and bake for 45 minutes to one hour. Since oven temperatures vary, check your enchiladas often and they should be ready when the top reaches a nice, golden brown.
  • Enjoy! Or, as we say in my home country -- "Buen provecho".
