Enchiladas Suiza


















Enchiladas Suiza

  • 3 cups green tomatillos
  • 1/4 cup onion, chopped
  • 1/2 fresh jalapeno peppers
  • 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 1/4 cup cream
  • 1 pinch cumin
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1/2 split chicken breast
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 teaspoon oregano
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 3 corn tortillas
  • 1 cup shredded Swiss cheese
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/4 cup rice, cooked
  • 1/4 cup beans, cooked
  • 1/4 avocado, sliced
  • Cilantro for garnish
Instructions :
First of all put the green tomatillos, onion, jalapeno and garlic into a pot of salted, boiling water for two minutes. (Tomatillos, also known as tomate verde, are a very distant cousin of the common tomato. About the size of golf balls, they grow encased in a papery husk, which must be removed before cooking. They are available in ethnic stores and in upscale supermarkets.)

And then remove all of the ingredients from the water and place them into a food processor. Blend with cilantro, fresh cream and pinch of cumin. In a separate pan, sauté the chopped onion with the vegetable oil, then slowly add the pureed mixture. Simmer until the tomatillo sauce comes to form a smooth consistency. Next is to add a pinch of sugar, if necessary, to balance the flavor.

Start the enchilada preparation by slow cooking the chicken breast in the broth with the oregano, bay leaf, salt and pepper. Remove the cooked chicken from the broth and shred it by hand, then divide it between the three tortillas.Use the tomatillo sauce to completely cover the chicken, then roll the tortillas up and place them on a plate.

Drape the tortillas with the remaining sauce and sprinkle them with the Swiss cheese. Finally, place them in the oven until the cheese has melted.
The cheese enchilada is ready to serve with rice and beans and garnish with avocado and cilantro......great taste...! Enjoy it !

Cheese Enchilada Recipe












Cheese Enchilada Recipe


Try this amazing recipe. Remember that the enchilada sauce you use is very important to the success of your dish.
Cheese Enchilada Recipe Ingredients:

* 1 lb of mild cheddar cheese, grated
* corn tortillas
* vegetable oil
* 1/4-1/3 cup finely chopped yellow onion
* Enchilada sauce, heated
* sour cream, optional
* guacamole, optional

Cheese Enchilada Recipe Instructions:

Heat the vegetable oil in a frying pan on medium heat.You will need some tongs and a plate or tray to assemble your enchiladas.Using tongs, dip two corn tortillas at a time into the hot oil. When the tortillas start to bubble, lift and dip them into the oil 3 times fairly quickly.

The goal here is to make the tortillas soft and tender. If the tortillas are left in the oil too long they will get hard and be difficult to roll. If that happens just toss them out and start over.
The other option is to go ahead and keep cooking them in the oil until they become hard. These can be used as tostada shells if you like.
Back to dipping the tortillas 3 quick times in the oil. Once you do this, dip the tortillas into hot enchilada sauce to coat. Now put the tortillas on a plate to cool one minute or two.

Add a handfull of the grated cheddar cheese and sprinkle some onion down the center of one tortilla and roll it. Do this by grabbing one end of the tortilla and bringing it 3/4 of the way over to the other end. Tuck and roll the tortilla.

Pick up the cheese enchilada with your fore fingers on the botton where the seam is. Let your pinky fingers cover the ends of the enchilada to keep the cheese from falling out while you move it to an oven proof dish.With a little practice you will be a pro in no time at this.Using a ladle, pour hot enchilada sauce over the top of the cheese enchiladas and let plenty of sauce run down the sides. Remember, the sauce is what makes it! Sprinkle more cheddar cheese and onion on top in the desired amount. Now let taste this great cheese enchilada ....mmmm..!

"Hot is Better"

Fisr of all preheat the oven to 400 degrees and place your enchiladas in the oven. Heat the cheese enchiladas until they look somewhat flat and the sauce is bubbling. This will probably take 15 minutes or more. Remember, you want to make sure the cheese inside the enchilada is melted.....mmm nice !
