Enchiladas Rojas Al Horno Recipes

ENCHILADAS ROJAS

Steps:

• Toast chiles in a dry medium skillet over medium-high until fragrant and blistered, 1 to 2 minutes a side. Wipe skillet clean. Remove and discard chile stems and seeds; transfer chiles to a bowl. Cover with 3 cups hot water and let soak 15 minutes. Remove chiles, reserving liquid.
• Blend chiles, cinnamon, clove, oregano, thyme, peppercorns, sesame seeds, peanuts, onion, and 1 1/2 cups reserved liquid until smooth. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in skillet over medium-high. Add sauce and cook, stirring constantly, until thickened, 5 minutes. Add 1 cup reserved liquid; bring to a boil. Season with salt; keep warm.
• Heat 1 tablespoon oil in another skillet over medium. Gently fry tortillas one at a time, using 1 tablespoon oil for every 3 tortillas, until pliable, about 30 seconds a side. Remove each with tongs, letting oil drip back into skillet, and dip into sauce, turning to fully coat. Transfer to a plate.
• Place a heaping 1/4 cup carnitas in center of a tortilla. Roll tightly and place, seam-side down, in a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Repeat with remaining tortillas, arranging them in dish in 2 rows. Pour remaining sauce over enchiladas. Top with queso fresco, onion, jalapeno, and cilantro; serve.

ENCHILADAS ROJAS AL HORNO

Steps:

• Inicia primero cocinando la salsa de chile guajillo en una olla mediana. Coloca dentro de la olla los chiles guajillos, el tomate, los ajos y el agua. Cuece en la estufa por 10 minutos a fuego mediano o hasta que los chiles estén suaves. Agrega esta preparación a la licuadora y licúa hasta que todos los ingredientes estén incorporados. Usando un colador, cuela la salsa y vierte la salsa colada en la cacerola. Sazona con comino, orégano y el cubito de caldo de pollo y deja que llegue al primer hervor.

• Por último agrega el queso desmenuzado de KRAFT y cubre con papel aluminio.
• Hornea las enchiladas rojas de 15 a 20 minutos y sirve caliente.

ENCHILADAS ROJAS MEXICANA (CHICKEN)

Steps:

• Boil the whole chicken with 1/2 onion, garlic cloves and salt in water to cover for one hour over medium heat. Let cool enough to handle. Remove chicken meat from bone and shred. (Can use left over chicken meat, or a rotisserie chicken if desired.).
• Chop the white onion and set aside. Chop the cilantro and set aside.
• Heat a little olive oil in a skillet, and quickly fry the tortillas, one at a time, until soft and pliable. You will need to add a little olive oil from time to time. Drain the tortillas on paper towels.
• Heat the salsa. One at a time, dip the soft tortilla in the salsa and place it in the baking pan (a 13x9 baking pan works well). Place a heaping spoonful each of shredded chicken and cheese in the middle of the tortilla. Add a little chopped onion and cilantro. Fold or roll the tortilla and move it to the side of the pan. Repeat with the remaining tortillas until the pan is full. Top with the remaining salsa, sprinkle with remaining cheese, cilantro and onion.
• Bake at 350ºF until the cheese has melted and the sauce is bubbly.
