Time 55m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 lbs chicken breasts, cooked and chilled
2 cups cheddar cheese, shredded
1 pint sour cream
12 (6 inch) corn tortillas
1 small onion, minced
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon cooking oil
2 cups chicken broth (divided)
2 tablespoons chicken broth (divided)
1 (10 ounce) can Rotel tomatoes & chilies
2 tablespoons cornstarch

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Prepare a 9 x 13 baking dish by spraying with non-stick coking spray.
  • Chop the cooked chicken into small bite-size pieces.
  • Combine chicken, cheese and sour cream until well blended.
  • Scoop about 1/4 cup chicken mixture into the center of each tortilla. Roll the tortillas into a cigar-shape, enclosing the chicken filling. Lay close together in the baking dish, seam side down.
  • Saute the minced onion and garlic in the oil over medium heat. When the garlic is fragrant and the onion has softened add 2 cups chicken broth and bring to a boil.
  • Add the can of rotel, with all of the juice. While the mixture returns to the boil combine the cornstarch with the remaining chicken broth, mix well then stir into rotel mixture. Simmer for a couple of minutes to cook out the raw cornstarch and thicken the mixture.
  • Spoon the hot sauce over the rolled tortillas making sure to cover all of the tortillas (don't leave any dry spots or they may burn).
  • Place the pan in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes or until the sauce is bubbly and the tortillas are hot throughout.
  • Feel free to adjust the seasoning in the chicken mixture and/or the sauce to your taste. I like to use the rotel tomatoes with cilantro and lime. Sometimes I saute sliced, fresh jalapenos or serranos with the onion when making the sauce, etc. Depends on my mood when I make it. The cheese and sour cream usually make the filling salty enough for me, but I often add cayenne or chili powder and black pepper if I want a bit of bite. Sometimes I use pepper-jack cheese for all or part of the cheese in the filling.

Yield 8-10 enchiladas

1 15 oz jar Mexican Crema Fresca Casera
1 can Tomatillos, Drained
3 tb chopped canned mild chili peppers
or 1 small jalapeno pepper (if you want spicy)
3 cloves garlic
1 bunch of cilantro (about 1/3 cup)

1 package corn tortillas
Canola oil
2 chicken breasts on the bone
1 quart chicken stock
tarragon (2-3 pieces)
2 bay leafs
1 Tb cumin
salt pepper
1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese

Steps:

  • In a cuisinart mix together the tomatillos, chili peppers, a pinch of salt a pinch of sugar, 2 garlic cloves, 1 small onion and the cilantro. Mix until thoroughly blended. Add about 3 TB of the Mexican Cream. Store in the fridge. In a saucepan add the chicken breasts, chicken stock, one small onion cut into quarters, 1 garlic clove the bay leafs tarragon and cumin plus salt and pepper. Cook the breasts in the liquid over a low heat (covered) for 1 hour until the chicken is completely cooked. Remove the breasts, let them cool then hand tear the chicken off the bone into a small bowl. You can do the first two things ahead of time. When you are ready to cook the enchiladas: take a small pan and add 1/4 cup canola oil and heat the oil. Take another medium pan and add the chicken and about 1/4 cup of the salsa together and warm it in the pan. Set a plate next to the stove with paper towels on it and set another plate with about 1/4 cup of the Mexican cream poured on it then have a baking dish next to that. In the oil cook one tortilla about 2 minutes (until the tortilla is soft) remove it from the pan and put it on the paper towels to remove the excess oil. Dip the tortilla into the Mexican cream covering both sides. put about 1/4 cup of the chicken mixture onto the tortilla and roll the tortilla around the mixture. Place the rolled tortilla into the baking dish seam side down. Continue with each tortilla until you fill the baking dish. Pour the remaining salsa and drizzle about 1/4 cup of Mexican Cream over the top of the Enchiladas and top everything with the Jack Cheese. Bake in a 350 oven for 30-40 minutes (check to make sure you don't burn the cheese.) Serve immediately.

ENCHILADAS SUIZA



ENCHILADAS SUIZA image

Categories     Chicken

Yield 8-10 people

Number Of Ingredients 18

10 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1 tablespoon and 2 teaspoons butter
1-2/3 cups chopped onion
2 green bell pepper, chopped
2 red bell pepper, chopped
1-2 pints button mushrooms, chopped
3-1/3 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
2 (4 ounce) cans diced green chile peppers
1-2/3 cups green salsa
1-2/3 cups chopped fresh cilantro
2 tablespoons and 3/4 teaspoon ground cumin
4 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, chopped
salt and ground black pepper to taste
20 (7 inch) flour or corn* tortillas
1 pound shredded Monterey Jack cheese
1-2/3 cups whipping cream
3/4 cup and 1 tablespoon and 1 teaspoon chicken broth
(If you use corn tortillas, you will need to soften them by dipping each one in hot oil and draining before adding filling and rolling up - we prefer corn, but either works.)

Steps:

  • Bring a pot of lightly salted water to a rapid boil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken to the boiling water; cover. Cook 15 to 20 minutes; drain and set aside. (You can put a couple of carrots and a quartered onion in the water for flavoring.) Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease 2 (10x15) baking dishes. Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Cook the onion, green bell pepper, and red bell pepper in the melted butter until just soft, about 5 minutes; Add mushrooms and cook until softened and liquid evaporates -about 5-7 minutes. transfer to a large bowl. Add the chicken, Cheddar cheese, green chile peppers, salsa, cilantro, cumin, and chipotle peppers to the bowl. Season with salt and pepper; mix. Place about 1/3 cup of the chicken mixture along the edge of a tortilla; roll tightly into a tube. Place the enchilada, seam-side down, into one of the prepared baking dish. Repeat until all the chicken mixture is used and the enchiladas are evenly divided between the 2 pans. Sprinkle Monterrey Jack cheese over the enchiladas. Whisk together the whipping cream and chicken broth in a small bowl; pour over both sets of the enchiladas. Cover the dishes with aluminum foil. Bake in preheated oven 30 - 40 minutes. Remove foil and continue baking until cheese is completely melted, about 10-15 minutes.
