CHICKEN AZTEC CASSEROLE
This is a recipe that I developed over a few months. It is like a chicken enchilada lasagna. Very easy to make and it is even better the next day reheated!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Boil chicken breasts until no longer pink in the middle.
- Place cooked chicken breasts in food processor and give a few pulses to chop up. Don't get it too fine. If you don't have a food processor then shred the chicken by hand.
- In a large bowl combine all of the ingredients except tortilla strips and 1 cup of cheese. Also add in the chopped chicken. Mix well.
- Grease a 9x13 backing dish and place one layer of tortilla strips in bottom. Spoon 1/3 of mixture on strips and spread evenly. Continue alternating tortilla strips and chicken mixture with the top layer being the chicken mixture.
- Cover and bake for 60 minutes or until bubbly.
- Remove from oven and uncover. Sprinkle remaining cup of cheese on top. Put back in oven uncovered for 5 minutes or until cheese is melted.
- Remove from oven and allow to cool for 5-10 minutes.
- Cut and serve. Can top with sour cream, salsa, hot sauce or fresh guacamole.

Steps:
- To make Aztec Soup: In a large pot, heat the extra-virgin olive oil over medium heat. Add the garlic and saute for 2 minutes, until golden. Throw in the minced chipotles, red onion, cumin, smoked cayenne, smoked paprika, sea salt, freshly ground pepper and saute for 8 minutes. Deglaze the pot with chicken broth and add the tomatoes, Greek oregano, chicken meat and the sprig of epazote. Stir. Partially cover pot and simmer soup for about 40 minutes.
- Boil some salted water in a separate pot. Throw in the wild rice and simmer for 40 minutes. Strain.
- Heat a grill pan on medium-high heat. Brush some canola oil on the ears of corn. Grill the corn for a few seconds on all sides until marked. Slice off the corn niblets. Add the corn, wild rice, and cooked black beans to the soup. Season the soup with brown sugar, sea salt, freshly ground pepper and coriander (cilantro) to taste.
- Serve this soup with a dollop of creme fraiche, crispy tortillas and a squirt of fresh lime juice.
- To make 'Liquid Gold' Chicken Broth: Heat the olive oil in a large soup pot over medium heat. Add the crushed garlic cloves and saute for 2 minutes, until garlic is golden. Add the onions, carrots, and celery. Season the vegetables with sea salt and freshly ground pepper. Saute for about 8 minutes. Cut the organic chicken and chicken bones into pieces. Really hack into it so that the bones and marrow are exposed. Add the chicken pieces and pint of chicken bones to the pot. Fill the pot with water until it just covers all the chicken, and bring to a boil.
- Tie the parsley, celery leaves, bay leaf, thyme, and tarragon into a bouquet using butcher's twine or kitchen twine. Add the bouquet to the pot along with the black peppercorns.
- Once the broth has begun to boil, bring the heat down to medium-low. Partially cover, and let the broth simmer for 2 to 3 hours.
- Strain the chicken broth through cheesecloth. Hand-pick the good chicken meat and set it aside.
- Refrigerate the broth overnight. Slip a sharp knife around the edges of solidified chicken fat and discard.
BUDIN AZTECA (AZTEC CASSEROLE)
You can substitute Green Chile if you don't have poblanos. You can use those precooked chickens from the grocery store or grill chicken breast real quick. It freezes well too. To lower fat I use cooking spray to fry the tortillas and use fat free half and half instead of cream.
