Time 1h5m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 tablespoons butter
⅔ cup chopped Spanish onion
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 ½ cups chicken broth
1 cup chopped green chile peppers
1 clove garlic, minced
¾ teaspoon salt
1 dash ground cumin
12 (8 inch) corn tortillas
canola oil for frying
1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
1 cup shredded mild Cheddar cheese
2 cups shredded, cooked chicken breast meat
1 cup heavy cream
¼ cup chopped green onion
½ cup sliced green olives
1 pint cherry tomatoes

Steps:

  • Prepare salsa verde: Melt butter in saucepan over medium heat. Saute the onion until soft. Stir in the flour. Add the broth, then add the chiles, garlic, salt, and cumin. Simmer about 15 minutes to blend flavors, then set aside. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C.)
  • In a heavy skillet, lightly fry tortillas in shallow oil, being careful not to make them too crisp to roll. Combine the cheeses and keep 1/2 cup aside for topping. Dip each tortilla in salsa verde (both sides.) Place 2 heaping tablespoons chicken and about 2 tablespoons cheese down the center of each; roll and place seam side down in a shallow dish.
  • After all the rolled tortillas are in the dish, spoon additional salsa verde over them and then cover evenly with heavy cream. Sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup cheese mixture, and with the green onions.
  • Bake uncovered in preheated oven for 20 minutes. Serve immediately, garnished with the olives, cherry tomatoes, and with additional salsa on the side.

Corn tortillas are filled with shredded chicken and baked in a creamy green tomatillo sauce. The 'suizas' sauce is Spanish for 'Swiss,' a nod to its creaminess.

Time 55m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pound fresh tomatillos, husks removed
1 large slice of onion
4 green serrano chiles, or to taste
1 clove garlic
½ cup water
1 cup heavy cream
½ cup shredded Chihuahua cheese
1 teaspoon chicken bouillon granules, or to taste
1 tablespoon vegetable oil, or as needed
12 corn tortillas
1 cooked chicken breast, shredded
1 cup shredded Chihuahua cheese

Steps:

  • Line a griddle or large frying pan with aluminum foil. Heat over medium-high heat. Add tomatillos, onion, chiles, and garlic. Grill until charred, 7 to 10 minutes, turning occasionally to cook evenly. Allow vegetables to cool slightly.
  • Transfer grilled vegetables to a blender with water, cream and 1/2 cup Chihuahua cheese; blend until smooth. Season with chicken bouillon granules; add additional water to thin sauce, if necessary,
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Heat a small drizzle of oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Fry tortillas in hot oil for a few seconds, one by one, until soft but not crispy. Add more oil as needed. Place cooked tortillas on a baking sheet lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil.
  • Pour 1/3 the sauce into a 9x13-inch glass baking dish. Fill tortillas with equal amounts of shredded chicken, roll up, and arrange in a single layer over the sauce. Pour remaining sauce on top and cover with remaining 1 cup mild Cheddar cheese.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until melted, about 25 minutes.

ENCHILADAS SUIZAS CON POLLO



Enchiladas Suizas Con Pollo image

These are SO GOOD! Pretty enough for a Ladies Luncheon, yet kid friendly, too! I like to serve them with a tossed salad, spanish or mexican rice, and refried beans and chips! (Canned/pre-cooked chicken, or a rotisserie chicken, can be substituted for quicker prep-time.) Note: These enchiladas are very mild and creamy, not spicy! Not everything in Mexico is eaten spicy hot! The filling before baking, also will taste bland. But that's because they haven't melted together. After baking, they are VERY creamy and delicious, and have a very unique flavor. Any altering of this recipe will totally change the flavor and I really wouldn't recommend it.
