MEAT FOR MEXICAN STACK



Meat for Mexican Stack image

This is fabulous for "Mexican Stack" which is great for a large get-together such as a football party or a church group as it serves a lot of people inexpensively. A Mexican Stack consists of most ingredients being served separately and each person is able to pick and choose what they want to put on their plate. The food line begins with a base such as rice or tortilla chips, then topped with meat and beans (this recipe), cheese, avocado, lettuce, tomatoes, olives, sour cream, etc. Have a party and let each person bring something different for the Stack! It's fun and everyone gets something that they like. I got this from a friend at church.

8 corn tortillas
1 1/2 cups sharp cheddar cheese, grated
1 1/2 cups monterey jack cheese, grated
sour cream
green onion, sliced
black olives, sliced
jalapeno, sliced

Steps:

  • Preheat broiler to high broil. Set the rack 6 inches from the heating element. Place the poblano pepper on a baking sheet and broil for 4 minutes on each side, or until the skin is blistered and rising up.Watch closely so you don't scorch your pepper. Remove from the oven and place the poblano pepper on a sheet of Reynold's Wrap aluminum foil and wrap loosely to allow the pepper to steam for 10 minutes.
  • Turn the broiler off and preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Add olive oil to a large skillet and heat over medium heat. Add the green onions and cook for 1 minute, then add the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add the ground beef and cook until no longer pink. Drain all grease from the pan, using a paper towel to soak up any extra grease.
  • While the onions and meat are cooking, remove the poblano from the Reynold's Wrap aluminum foil and let cool a bit. Peel the skin from the poblano and dice.
  • Add the chicken stock, taco seasoning, cayenne pepper, diced poblano peppers, black beans, corn, cilantro, cream cheese and chives to the skillet. Cook while stirring until it is creamy. Taste and add salt and pepper as you feel is needed. Remove from heat.
  • Choose a casserole dish that is at least 2 1/2 inches to 3 inches deep and can hold 2 stacks of 5 inch corn tortillas. Otherwise, you can make two separate casserole dishes. Spray with oil and place 2 corn tortillas (making 2 stacks!) in the casserole dish. Spread 1/4th of the meat mixture on top of the two tortillas. Top with 1/4 of the cheese. Repeat this step 3 times, ending with cheese.
  • Loosely tent your casserole dish with Reynolds Wrap Aluminum Foil. Use no stick Reynolds Aluminum Foil if you are afraid your cheese will attach to the aluminum foil. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes. Remove the Reynolds Wrap Aluminum Foil and bake for an additional 15 to 20 minutes. Let the dish sit for 5 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
