Green Enchiladas
A grateful gringo's totally inauthentic interpretation of a great Mexican classic.
Makes 8-10 enchiladas, serves 4-5 people
olive oil
4 chicken thighs (boneless skinless is easiest)
2 large white onions
white wine (optional)
cumin
coriander
paprika
pepper
salt
4 jalapeños (or other green chiles)
1.5 pounds tomatillos
1 lime
4-5 garlic cloves
1 bunch cilantro
8 oz Monterey Jack cheese
8-10 7-inch tortillas (I do flour, you could do corn)
Fry the chicken thighs in olive oil until browned, and remove. Roughly chop one of the onions and fry it in the same pot until golden. Put in maybe a teaspoon (or more) each of the ground cumin, coriander and paprika, grind in some pepper, and fry the spices for a minute. Put the chicken back in, and cover with about half white wine, half water (or all water if you don't want to use wine). Mix in a pinch of salt. Cover, reduce heat to a simmer, and cook until the chicken is just starting to fall apart, maybe a half hour. Take the chicken out and chop it up into small chunks. Boil the braising liquid down to a thick glaze. Mix the chicken into the glaze.
For the salsa verde, pre-heat the oven to at least 400 F. Cut the chiles in half, scrape out and discard the seeds (or leave them in if you like it spicy). Husk the tomatillos and cut them in half. Peel the other onion and cut it into a few large chunks. Cut the lime in half — only use one half of it if you don't like your food too acidic. Put the veggies and lime into a wide pan and toss them in olive oil. Put the pan into the oven. While the salsa is roasting, peel the garlic cloves. After the salsa has a bit of color, put in the whole garlic cloves and stir everything around. Continue cooking until the veggies seem half cooked, maybe 20 minutes total. Take the pan out. Squeeze the juice out of the lime and discard. Dump the salsa into a food processor with a handful of cilantro and puree until reasonably smooth. Return the salsa to the wide pan.
Grate up the cheese. Put maybe half a cup of the salsa into the chicken, along with half of the cheese. Mix up the filling and check for seasoning.
Grease up a 7x11 inch baking dish. Dunk a tortilla into the salsa, then bring it to the baking dish. Scoop in a modest line of filling, and roll up the tortilla, seam-side down. Repeat until you've filled your baking dish and/or exhausted your filling. Spoon the rest of the salsa on top of the enchiladas, and sprinkle on the rest of the cheese. Bake uncovered until the cheese is browned to your liking, maybe 20 minutes. Top the individual enchiladas with more cilantro, if you're into that.

???? I'm Stephanie and behind the camera, you have my sister Cloud. I started cooking at 4 years of age. What?! Yes (LOL) I pulled up a chair and my first choice was to fry an egg. I was hungry and that’s all I have to say about that experience. I would like to say I’m completely self-taught in the kitchen, but I have the lovely women in my family to thank. They taught me to honor my ancestors and to make my Mexican Cuisine comfortable for my home. I thank our creator for my curiosity and my never-ending search for the next gastronomic satiation. Cooking is a huge part of my daily life as I prepare breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks for my two American Korean/Mexican boys. I know who does that these days? Me, I homeschool my two boys and I’m grateful for every moment spent. ❤️ If you love our spectacular homemade recipes, Please take the time to Subscribe and support our channel.

Chicken Enchiladas with Tomatillo Salsa (Enchiladas Verde)
Jeff Martinez of Fonda San Miguel in Austin, Texas, shares a great recipe for enchiladas. Tortillas glazed in a small amount of hot oil, get dipped in sauce, filled with meat, cheese, or vegetables, rolled and swathed in more sauce. A staple of the Mexican diet, enchiladas vary from house-to-house and even cook-to-cook. They're not difficult to make, but preparing the components takes awhile. For the best result, make fillings and sauces ahead of time and reheat when ready to serve.
