Chicken Chilaquiles Verdes Recipes

Steps:

• Place tomatillos in a saucepan with water to cover; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low; simmer until color begins to lighten and fruit is soft to the touch, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Transfer tomatillos to a food processor or blender. Add jalapenos, 1/3 cup cilantro, garlic, salt, and pepper; blend until smooth. Cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate at least 2 hours for best flavor.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir chicken and onion until onions begin to brown, about 10 minutes. Add olives; cook for 5 minutes. Add cilantro; cook and stir until wilted, about 1 minute more. Remove from heat.
• Line the bottom of a 8-inch square casserole dish with 2 to 3 layers of tortilla chips, breaking chips slightly. Add half of the sauce; toss with chips. Top with chicken mixture and the remaining sauce. Sprinkle cotija cheese on top.
• Bake in the preheated oven until tortilla chips are softened, 15 to 25 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Place the tomatillos, onion, jalapeno and garlic on a baking sheet. Drizzle 2 tablespoons oil over the vegetables and toss to coat. Sprinkle with salt and roast until the vegetables soften and start to brown, about 30 minutes. Transfer the vegetables to a blender, add the broth and puree. Season with salt.
• Heat 1/2 inch of oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. When hot, add the tortilla pieces in batches and fry until golden brown and crispy, about 1 1/2 minutes per batch. Drain on paper towels and season with salt.
• Carefully pour out the oil from the pan and return the pan to medium heat. Add about 1 1/2 cups of the tomatillo puree (you will have some leftover) and cook until slightly thickened, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the chicken and toss to coat. Add the tortillas and gently stir until they are coated. Divide the mixture among 4 shallow bowls and top with queso fresco and cilantro and a dollop of sour cream if using.

Steps:

• Combine chicken breast, half of the salsa verde, chicken broth, onion, chili powder, cumin, cayenne, salt, and pepper in a slow cooker. Cook until chicken is cooked through, on Low for 6 hours or High for 3 hours.
• Remove chicken from sauce and shred in a bowl with 2 forks. Return to the sauce in the slow cooker and mix to combine.
• Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add olive oil and heat until shimmery. Cut tortillas into triangles; add tortilla triangles to the hot oil and cook, flipping every minute, until golden, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Add shredded chicken, slow cooker sauce, and remaining salsa verde to tortillas. Mix and heat until everything is warmed through.
• Meanwhile, stir together sour cream and as much milk so sour cream can be drizzled.
• Remove tortilla mixture from the heat. Garnish with cotija cheese, cilantro, and drizzle with thinned sour cream mix.

Steps:

• Stir together sour cream and just enough milk to get a thick pourable consistency.
• Bring salsa and broth to a boil in a 5- to 6-quart heavy pot over moderately high heat. Add chicken, salt, and pepper and cook, stirring, until chicken is heated through, 1 to 2 minutes, then stir in 6 cups tortilla chips and cook until chips are softened (but not mushy), about 1 minute.
• Transfer chilaquiles to a large platter. Sprinkle with feta, cilantro, and 1 cup broken chips and serve immediately, with thinned sour cream on the side.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
• To make the fried tortilla strips, slice corn tortillas into thin strips.
• Fry in a large skillet of hot oil until light golden brown and crisp, watching carefully so they do not burn.
• Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
• To assemble the casserole, spread the corn strips on the bottom of a 9x13" baking dish.
• Place the chicken on top and cover with the sauce, then top with cheese.
• Cover with foil and bake for 20 minutes or until heated through.
• Spread the sour cream over the top of the casserole and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Place corn tortilla pieces on the prepared baking sheet and spray with cooking spray.
• Bake in the preheated oven until crispy, 5 to 10 minutes.
• Combine tortillas and tomatillo sauce in a skillet over medium heat and simmer until tortillas have softened, about 5 minutes. Spoon mixture into individual ramekins. Top with queso fresco, crema, and sliced onions. Garnish with cilantro.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Slice each tortilla into 8 triangles and spread out onto the prepared baking sheet. Brush tops with 1 tablespoon avocado oil and sprinkle with sea salt.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 10 minutes.
• Pour salsa verde into a skillet and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat and add baked tortilla chips. Toss to coat and let sit for 3 to 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat black beans in the microwave or in a saucepan until hot.
• Heat 1 tablespoon avocado oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Crack eggs into the skillet and cook until outer edges become opaque, about 1 minute. Cover, reduce heat to low, and cook until whites are completely set, about 4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Distribute salsa verde and tortillas amongst 4 bowls. Top with a fried egg, black beans, avocado, tomatoes, red onion, and cilantro.
