CHICKEN CHILE VERDE

During culinary school I worked at a Mexican restaurant in Saranac Lake, NY, called Casa Del Sol. My favorite dish was the Chile Verde. In this version I simmer large chunks of chicken slowly in an exotic green sauce of tomatillos and chilies.

Steps:

  • Season chicken pieces with salt and black pepper on all sides.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook chicken, 2 to 3 pieces at a time, until browned on all sides, about 15 minutes total. Set aside.
  • Place tomatillos, jalepeno peppers, garlic, cilantro, and chicken stock in a blender and puree until smooth. Set aside.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil over medium-low heat in a Dutch oven. Stir in onion, cook and stir until onion is soft and translucent, about 10 minutes. Stir in cumin, oregano, and bay leaf; cook 1 minute.
  • Place chicken over onion mixture in the Dutch oven. Pour in tomatillo mixture. Bring to a boil, decrease heat to low and simmer, covered, until the meat is tender and falling off the bone, about 1 hour 15 minutes.
  • Stir in potatoes and cook, uncovered, until they are easily pierced with a fork, about 35 minutes.
  • Season with salt and pepper to taste; serve garnished with sour cream.

Steps:

  • 1. Roast the tomatillos and peppers in 450 oven for 5-7+ minutes, until tomatillos are golden and peppers are charred. Put peppers in paper bag for easy peeling, except jalapenos don't need it. 2. In processor or Vitamix, blend all ingredients except broth and chicken until smooth. 3. Boil chicken in broth until cooked and tender. Cool, then shred and add enough broth to moisten. 4. Mix green sauce with shredded chicken; assemble burritos with cheese, rice and chicken.

2 lbs tomatillos husked, washed and dried, and cut in half
2 large poblano peppers, cut in half, seeds removed
1 jalapeño pepper
1 cup diced onion
2-3 garlic cloves
2 cups roughly chopped cilantro
1 tablespoon cumin
1 teaspoon paprika
Zest of 1 lime
Juice of 1 lime
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
2 cups chicken broth (use less because this is the amount used in the soup version)
2 lbs boneless skinless chicken breast
shredded Mexican cheese
white or brown rice
large flour tortillas

CHILI VERDE FOR BURRITOS

My DH taught me how to make Chili Verde (one of his favorites), but over time, we both thought the recipe was kinda blah. So I looked up recipes here on Zaar, and in various cookbooks, and the result is what I'm posting. It's sort of a combination of Chili Verde *and* Salsa Verde recipes. If you wanted to have a green chili stew, just cut up a couple of potatoes, and double the tomatoes. Anyway, DH loves this version much better than what we started with, and so do I.... hope you do to :) PS: I used pork tenderloin, because it's boneless, has less fat, and is really easy to work with, and in my area, frequently on sale for a 1.99 a pound. But you can use whatever cut you prefer.

Chili Verde for Burritos image

Steps:

  • Place pork loin in freezer for about 30 minutes - this will make it easier to cut. Trim all visible fat, and cut into cubes - about 1 inch or so.
  • Heat oil in dutch oven, and add pork. Cook til all sides are lightly brown. Remove pork with a slotted spoon, onto a plate or small bowl.
  • Add onion to pan and cook until lightly browned and add garlic.
  • While onion is browning, put the almonds in a blender or food processor and pulse until almonds are the consistency of meal (don't go to far or you'll have almond butter). Add tomatillos, 1 can of the green chilis, and the jalapeno. Puree for about 1 minute.
  • When onions and garlic are done, add tomatillo mixture to pan.
  • Season mixture with cumin and chili powder. I probably use about 4 to 5 tablespoons cumin and 1 tablespoon chili powder. It's really just up to you and what you prefer.
  • Return pork to pan, add chicken broth and bring to a slow boil. Cover and reduce heat to simmer.
  • Cook covered for about 1 hour. Uncover and continue cooking until liquid reduces to your preference.
  • Make burritos with the condiments you and your family prefer.

2 1/2 lbs pork tenderloin
1 (28 ounce) can tomatillos
2 (7 ounce) cans diced green chilies
3 ounces slivered almonds
1 medium onion, diced
1 garlic clove (diced or crushed)
1 cup chicken broth
cumin
chili powder
1 jalapeno (fresh or canned)
1 tablespoon oil (olive, canola or if you prefer, bacon drippings.)
12 flour tortillas (we use the huge ones)
cheese
sour cream
whole black beans
refried guacamole
Mexican rice

  • You can cook the chicken any way you want, but for this batch I brined and baked it. To brine the chicken, add 1/2 cup Kosher or sea salt to 2 quarts of water in a mixing bowl. Stir to dissolve the salt and add the chicken breasts, letting them brine in the fridge for 30 minutes or so. If the chicken isn't fully submerged then add a bit more water. Once brined, pat dry the chicken and add it to a baking sheet.
  • Pull off the husks of the tomatillos and give them a good rinse. I usually de-stem them too. Add the tomatillos to the baking sheet along with the rinsed poblanos (and the chicken) and roast everything in the oven at 400F. Cook the chicken until it registers 160F or until the insides are no longer pink -- this usually takes 20 minutes but sometimes it will take a couple extra minutes if there was an extensive brine. Remove the chicken once cooked and let the poblanos and tomatillos roast for an additional 10 minutes or so. I usually cover the cooked chicken breasts with foil until I need them.
  • De-stem and de-seed the roasted poblanos. Add the roasted poblanos and tomatillos to a blender along with 1/2 onion, 4 peeled garlic cloves, 15-20 cilantro sprigs, and 1-4 rinsed, de-stemmed jalapenos. If you want a milder batch start with 1 jalapeno, combine, and take a taste for heat level, adding more jalapeno to increase the heat. I used 2 1/2 jalapenos for this batch and it had some zip.
  • Simmer the green sauce in a dollop of oil (or lard) over mediumish heat. Add 1 tablespoon Mexican oregano, 1/2 teaspoon cumin (optional), 1/2 teaspoon salt (optional), and some freshly cracked black pepper. Taste for seasoning. Note: if you brine the chicken you probably won't need to add much additional salt.
