CHICKEN ENCHILADAS WITH SALSA VERDE

Steps:

• Prepare the chicken: Place chicken parts in a large saucepan with onion, garlic and salt, and cover with water. Heat pan over high heat until liquid comes to a boil, then reduce heat to medium and let simmer until chicken is cooked through, about 20 to 25 minutes. Remove chicken and let cool, reserving stock for another use. Using your fingers or two forks, shred meat from chicken and reserve, discarding skin and bones. (Alternatively, shred meat from leftover or store-bought roast chicken and set aside.)
• Meanwhile, heat oven to 375, and make the salsa verde: Combine tomatillos, onion, garlic, serranos and cilantro in a blender or food processor and purée until smooth, adding water as needed to thin it out a little. Season with salt to taste.
• Prepare the tortillas: In medium sauté pan set over medium-high heat, heat oil until it begins to shimmer. Using tongs or a wide spatula, place a tortilla in the hot fat; it should start to bubble immediately. Heat tortilla for about 10 seconds a side, until soft and lightly browned. Remove tortilla and set on a rack set over a baking pan, or just on a baking pan if you don't have a rack. Repeat with remaining tortillas, working quickly.
• Assemble the enchiladas: Use a ladle to put about 1/2 cup salsa verde in the bottom of a 9-by-13-inch baking pan and spread it out a little. Roll a few tablespoons of shredded chicken into each tortilla with a teaspoon or so of salsa verde and place it seam-side down in the pan, nestling each one against the last. Ladle salsa verde over top of rolled tortillas and sprinkle with about half the crumbled cheese.
• Transfer to oven and bake until sauce bubbles and cheese is melted, about 15 minutes. Dot with crema, sprinkle with remaining cheese and, if using, chopped onion, then serve immediately.

ENCHILADAS CON CARNE

Steps:

• Prepare the chili con carne: Put flour in a large sauté pan set over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring frequently, until it begins to turn golden brown and smell nutty, then pour it onto a plate to cool.
• Wipe out sauté pan and return it to high heat with 2 tablespoons oil. When oil is hot and shimmery, add ground beef to pan, and cook, breaking it up with a fork and stirring, until it is well browned, about 12 to 15 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, then use a slotted spoon to remove meat to a bowl, leaving drippings behind.
• Add onion, garlic and jalapeño to pan and cook, stirring to scrape up any browned bits of meat, for 10 to 12 minutes, or until vegetables are soft. Stir in tomatoes and cook until their liquid has evaporated, then add chile powder, cumin and oregano and stir to combine. After a minute or so, when mixture begins to turn fragrant, return browned meat to pan, along with toasted flour, and stir well to combine.
• Lower heat to medium-high and slowly stir in chicken stock, 1/2 cup at a time, until mixture has thickened and started to simmer. Lower heat again and allow chili to cook slowly for 45 minutes to 1 hour, until meat is tender. Add more stock or water if needed. Use immediately, or let cool, cover and refrigerate for up to a few days.
• When you are ready to cook the enchiladas, heat oven to 425 degrees. In a medium sauté pan set over medium-high heat, heat 1/2 cup neutral oil until it begins to shimmer. Using tongs or a wide spatula, place a tortilla in the hot fat; it should start to bubble immediately. Heat tortilla for about 10 seconds a side, until soft and lightly browned. Remove tortilla and set on a rack set over a baking pan, or just on a baking pan if you don't have a rack. Repeat with remaining tortillas, working quickly.
• Assemble the enchiladas: Using a ladle, put about 1/2 cup chili in the bottom of a 9-by-13-inch baking pan and spread it out a little. Roll a few tablespoons of cheese into each tortilla, along with a tablespoon or so of chili, then place it seam-side down in the pan, nestling each one against the last. Ladle remaining chili over top of rolled tortillas and sprinkle with remaining cheese.
• Transfer to oven and bake until sauce bubbles and cheese is melted, about 10 to 15 minutes. Sprinkle chopped onions over the top, if using, and serve immediately.

BONNIE'S CHICKEN ENCHILADAS A LA CREMA

Steps:

• 1. NOTE: Please read the recipe through before you begin. The chicken takes 45 minutes to an hour to prepare, and it takes about 25 to 30 minutes to bake.
• 2. Place chicken tenders in a single layer, 12 inch skillet. Sprinkle peppers, tomato, onion, garlic, salt and cumin, add stock or broth. Heat over medium high heat to boiling, reduce heat to low. Simmer covered until chicken is very tender, about 45 minutes to an hour. Check the broth to make sure seasoning is to your liking.
• 3. Remove chicken pieces from the skillet with tongs and shake off the pieces of vegetables. Spread chicken out on a cutting board to cool so it can be handled.
• 4. Heat the mixture in the skillet , simmer gently over medium high heat stirring frequently, about 6 minutes. You will need 1 1/4 cups of this liquid. Drain and reserve the liquid and then transfer it to a 13x9x2 inch baking dish.
• 5. Now tear the chicken with your hands into coarse shreds. (don't shred with a fork. I save the vegetables and freeze them to add to soups. )
• 6. Heat the oven to 375 degrees. Heat the cream in a medium skillet over medium heat until just below boiling. Remove from heat.
• 7. I use a pie plate to put my dipped tortillas in so I can fill them with chicken without a mess. Using tongs dip one tortilla in the hot cream until it is limp, a few seconds, remove draining off excess cream, place in pie pan and fill with about 3 tablespoons of chicken down the center of each dipped tortilla. Roll up and place seam side down on sauce in the baking dish. After I have dipped a couple of tortillas, I put the heat on under the cream and turn it to simmer to keep it hot. It makes the tortillas fold easier if the cream is warm.
• 8. Repeat with remaining tortillas and chicken. Now pour the remaining cream evenly over the enchiladas.
• 9. Sprinkle enchiladas evenly with the cheese. Bake in the 375 degree oven until the sauce is bubbly and cheese is melted and golden, 25 to 30 minutes. Don't overcook because it will tear up your tortillas. If you want it more brown than my photo, consider putting it under the broiler the last few minutes. Garnish with green onion and red pepper slivers. Enjoy!
• 10. Cook's tip: My husband does not like traditional enchilada sauce. I have found this last week that there are several people on this site who do not like it either. This recipe is for you!
