Cheesy Salsa Chicken With Adobo Sauce Recipes

ADOBO CHICKEN

Steps:

• For the chicken: Preheat 2 cast-iron grill pans over medium heat.
• Whisk together the ancho chile powder, New Mexican chile powder, oregano, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, orange juice, lime juice and season with salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Add the canola oil and whisk. Put the chicken in the marinade, turning the chicken to coat both sides.
• Grill the chicken until golden brown and slightly charred on one side, about 4 minutes. Flip and cook the other side until the chicken is cooked through, about 4 more minutes; the juices should run clear and the meat thermometer should read 165 degrees F.
• Meanwhile, for the salad: Put the avocado, onions, cilantro, salt, pepper, lime juice and olive oil in a medium bowl. Fold the ingredients with a rubber spatula, gently breaking up the avocado in the process.
• To serve: Grill the tortillas on both sides until lightly marked and warmed through, about 10 seconds per side. Then fold in half and place on the side of a serving dish.
• Place the chicken in the center of the serving dish and top with a scoop of the salad. Drizzle with olive oil and lime juice and garnish with a sprig of cilantro.

CHEESY CHICKEN ENCHILADA SOUP

Steps:

• Heat oil in a soup pot over medium to medium-high heat. Add onion and saute until tender and beginning to get some color, about 8 minutes. Add garlic and saute until fragrant, about 1 minute.
• Stir in masa harina and cook for 1 minute. Add chicken stock and stir until well blended. Add chicken, black beans, diced tomatoes with juice, enchilada sauce, chile peppers, chipotle in adobo sauce, 1 teaspoon cumin, and 1 teaspoon garlic powder. Stir until well blended and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat and simmer until heated through, about 15 minutes.
• Add Mexican cheddar, one handful at a time. As it melts into the soup, add a little more until all has been added and is incorporated. Adjust salt and other seasonings as needed.

EASY-CHEESY SALSA CHICKEN

Steps:

• Flatten Chicken Breasts so they are of equal thickness for even cooking.
• In stir-fry skillet or any deep frying pan (with lid), heat your Olive Oil.
• Add the Chicken Breasts and brown on both sides until no longer pink inside.
• Pour over salsa to your liking. I use about a half a 16 oz. jar. I also add a little water to tone down the heat, (hubby can't handle spice).
• Cover and simmer chicken in salsa for about half-hour to 45 minutes.
• Top with cheese to serve.
