Pollo Con Queso Tortas Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C).
• Seal chicken breast in a resealable zip-top plastic bag. Pound flat to 1/4-inch thickness. Add cornstarch and shake to coat.
• Whisk egg in a shallow bowl. Dredge the chicken breast through the egg; leave it in the bowl. Add bread crumbs, cilantro, chipotle, oregano, cumin, and pepper to the bag; shake well. Lift chicken from the bowl, letting any excess egg drip off. Add to the bread crumb mixture. Shake and press the seasoned bread crumbs over the chicken breast.
• Place bolillo buns in the preheated oven until warmed through and toasted, about 12 minutes.
• Meanwhile, mix mayonnaise and hot sauce together in a small mixing bowl.
• Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook chicken until browned, about 6 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Cut the chicken in half lengthwise.
• Assemble the sandwiches. Spread the spicy mayonnaise over both sides of the rolls. Add equal amounts of avocado, tomato, lettuce, carrots, and jalapenos to 2 halves. Add chicken and the tops of the rolls. Serve with the remaining spicy mayonnaise for dipping.

Steps:

• In a medium sized mixing bowl combine the boiled shredded chicken and the shredded mozzarella cheese, set aside.
• On a warmed skillet warm up your tortillas so they are no longer cold or hard, warm them up just enough so that the are soft enough to roll smoothly without them breaking apart on you when you roll them. (NOTE: NEVER warm your tortillas in the microwave this makes the tortillas sticky and they break apart when you try to roll them, you may think its easy but it makes you work twice as much!).
• Take one warm tortilla and place your chicken/cheese mixture in a straight line down the middle.
• Take one flap and carefully fold over and try and tuck it under the chicken/cheese.
• Take the second flap and roll over closing the chicken/cheese in, here use the wooden toothpicks to seal the 'Flauta'.
• Repeat these steps until you have all of your flautas rolled and sealed. Make sure not to over stuff them or the toothpick wont be able to keep them closed without tearing the tortilla.
• Heat your vegetable oil up in a deep frying pan about one each of oil will do if you are using a pan on a stove top. (If you are using a deep fryer use the amount that YOU THINK is enough to cover the 'Flautas' when you deep them in the basket.).
• Place up to 2 flautas at a time in your pan and roll them slowly and carefully until they are gold LIGHT brown on the outside, Take them out and drain them in a bowl lined with paper napkins. As you cook more 'Flautas' the oil goes down, add more oil to pan as needed. (If you are using a deep fryer place from 3 to 5 'Flautas' in the basket and deep them, until you see them turn the light brown color then remove them from the basket and place aside to drain.).
• Let them all cool down for about 5 minutes and enjoy with Guacamole if you have any available.
• (OPTIONAL) Brown them a bit more if you want them extra crunchy, if you follow as i stated above they will be a nice soft crunch.

Steps:

• Preheat broiler.
• Roast peppers directly over a low gas flame or under the broiler, turning frequently with tongs, until blackened on all sides. Place in a bowl; cover tightly with plastic wrap. Let cool. Peel off charred skins; discard seeds and stems. Thinly slice crosswise and set aside.
• Heat oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Season chicken with salt and pepper and cook, turning once, until browned, about 2 minutes per side. Remove chicken from skillet and transfer to a rimmed baking sheet. Add sliced poblanos, onion, garlic, and cumin to skillet; season with a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring, until onion is soft and translucent. Top chicken with poblano mixture and sprinkle with cheeses. Place under broiler; broil until cheese is melted and bubbly, about 2 minutes.
• To assemble, place chicken on bottom halves of rolls; top with crema and slaw. Sandwich with top halves of rolls; serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Spray a baking dish with cooking spray.
• Pour rice mix, the amount of water called for, and canned tomatoes into the dish, stirring together.
• Cook the chicken in a skillet until the outsides are seared and starting to brown.
• Place chicken over the rice mixture and cover with foil paper.
• Place in an oven for 30 minutes.
• Remove the foil.
• Pour the cheese over the top of the chicken, not forgetting the exposed rice.
• Place back in the oven for 15 minutes or until chicken is white all the way through.
