TURKEY, GREEN CHILI AND SOUR CREAM ENCHILADAS

Steps:

• Tortillas can vary considerably in terms of their flexibility to be rolled. If they are very fresh you may be a able to roll them without softening. But for most tortillas you have to make them pliant. You either heat them on a griddle and place them under a damped towel to stay warm and moist or you can quickly fry them in hot oil until they are soft and then drain them on papers towels. Mix one cup of the chili sauce with the meat. Place 1/4 cup of the mixture and roll is up. Place in a large oblong baking dish. Scatter the onions over the enchiladas. Cover them with the grated cheese, then the remaining sauce. Bake at 350 degrees for 40 minutes. Take the enchiladas out and spread the sour cream even over them. Return to the oven for at least ten minutes. The sour cream should be hot and gently bubbling. Test the center. When it is hot serve immediately. *Green Chile Sauce Heat the oil and saute the onion a few minutes, then add the garlic and cook until softened. Stir in the flour, cook 2 minutes, then slowly add the stock. Add the chili, tomato and cumin. Cover and simmer at least 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add water or stock if sauce gets to thick.

GREEN TURKEY CHILI

Steps:

• 1.Brown the ground turkey with the onion and garlic cloves over medium heat until it is cooked thru. 2.Place the chilies under a broiler for 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally until all of the sides are blackened. 3.Remove from the oven and immediately place them in a heavy duty ziploc bag. Seal it and let them steam for 10 minutes. 4.Remove the chilies, then carefully remove the skins. It should be very easy to detach the skin after steaming them. 5.Remove the seeds and stems, then chop into small pieces. 6.Place the turkey mixture, chilies, chicken broth, water, beans, and spices in a stockpot and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer, and cook for 2 hours until the beans are soft. 7.Alternatively, you can put it all in a crockpot and cook on low for 6-8 hours. This is actually my favorite method because I think the chili gets thicker, plus it's just so much easier to forget about it for the day! 8.Enjoy!
