ENCHILADAS SUIZAS



Enchiladas Suizas image

A creamy, cheesy, comfort-food take on enchiladas. The name of this dish means "Swiss enchiladas," not because it's a Swiss recipe but because of the generous use of dairy as compared to the more traditional Enchiladas Rojas.

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Chicken     Chicken Thighs

Time 1h30m

Number Of Ingredients 12

11/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken thighs
12 ounces tomatillos, husked and thoroughly rinsed
1 poblano chile, halved lengthwise, seeds, ribs, and stem removed
1 medium white onion, half cut into 3 wedges, remaining half finely chopped for serving
2 garlic cloves, smashed and peeled
1 jalapeno, stem removed, plus more thinly sliced for serving
1/2 cup packed cilantro sprigs, plus more leaves, for serving
1 cup sour cream
2 teaspoons fresh lime juice
1 teaspoon kosher salt
8 6-inch flour tortillas, warmed
11/2 cups shredded Oaxaca or salted mozzarella cheese (8 ounces)

Steps:

  • Place chicken in a medium saucepan and add enough water to cover by at least 2 inches. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook until just cooked through, about 8 minutes. Remove from water; transfer to a plate. When cool enough to handle, shred into bite size pieces. You should have about 3 cups.
  • Meanwhile, preheat oven to broil with a rack in the position closest to the heating element. Arrange tomatillos, poblano, onion wedges, garlic, and jalapeno in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Broil, flipping once halfway through, until blackened in places and beginning to soften, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a blender; add cilantro, sour cream, 3/4 cup water, lime juice, and salt and puree until smooth.
  • Turn oven to 350 degrees. Spread 1 cup enchilada sauce evenly over the bottom of an 8-by-12-inch baking dish. In a medium bowl, toss chicken with 1 cup enchilada sauce. Place about 1/3 cup of chicken in the center of each tortilla. Roll up tortillas to enclose filling. Arrange enchiladas in a single layer in prepared baking dish, seam-side down. Pour remaining enchilada sauce over the top, then sprinkle evenly with cheese.
  • Bake until cheese is melted and sauce is bubbling, about 30 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes. Serve with cilantro leaves, chopped onion, and sliced jalapeno.

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h5m

Yield 6 enchiladas

Number Of Ingredients 13

9 tomatillos, husked and rinsed
1/4 white onion
1 serrano chile
1 yellow chile (guerito pepper)
2 cloves garlic
1/4 bunch fresh cilantro
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup Mexican crema
1/2 cup heavy cream
Vegetable oil, for frying
6 corn tortillas
1 1/2 cups shredded chicken
1/2 cup shredded Oaxaca or mozzarella cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Put the tomatillos, onion and both chiles in a medium heavy saucepan, cover with water and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Boil until the tomatillos turn an olive-green color, about 10 minutes. Drain and transfer the tomatillos, onions and chiles to a blender. Add the garlic and cilantro and blend until smooth. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  • Mix the Mexican crema and heavy cream together in a small bowl and season with salt. Set aside.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a small skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the tortillas until golden but still pliable, about 10 seconds per side, using more oil if needed. Transfer to paper towels to drain.
  • Place the tortillas on a work surface. Divide the shredded chicken evenly among the tortillas and roll up each like a cigar. Spread 1/3 cup of the sauce in a 13-by-9-by-2-inch glass baking dish. Arrange the enchiladas in 1 layer, seam-side down, snugly inside the dish. Pour the rest of the sauce over the enchiladas. Drizzle the cream mixture on top and sprinkle the cheese all over.
  • Bake until the cheese is melted and starting to brown in spots, about 30 minutes. Serve immediately.

ENCHILADAS SUIZAS



Enchiladas Suizas image

This dish has a nice bite to it with lots of cheese. It is equally delicious with cooked pork or beef.

Provided by Lisa Civitillo Blok

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     Latin American     Mexican

Time 1h5m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 tablespoons butter
⅔ cup chopped Spanish onion
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 ½ cups chicken broth
1 cup chopped green chile peppers
1 clove garlic, minced
¾ teaspoon salt
1 dash ground cumin
12 (8 inch) corn tortillas
canola oil for frying
1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
1 cup shredded mild Cheddar cheese
2 cups shredded, cooked chicken breast meat
1 cup heavy cream
¼ cup chopped green onion
½ cup sliced green olives
1 pint cherry tomatoes

Steps:

  • Prepare salsa verde: Melt butter in saucepan over medium heat. Saute the onion until soft. Stir in the flour. Add the broth, then add the chiles, garlic, salt, and cumin. Simmer about 15 minutes to blend flavors, then set aside. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C.)
  • In a heavy skillet, lightly fry tortillas in shallow oil, being careful not to make them too crisp to roll. Combine the cheeses and keep 1/2 cup aside for topping. Dip each tortilla in salsa verde (both sides.) Place 2 heaping tablespoons chicken and about 2 tablespoons cheese down the center of each; roll and place seam side down in a shallow dish.
  • After all the rolled tortillas are in the dish, spoon additional salsa verde over them and then cover evenly with heavy cream. Sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup cheese mixture, and with the green onions.
  • Bake uncovered in preheated oven for 20 minutes. Serve immediately, garnished with the olives, cherry tomatoes, and with additional salsa on the side.

MEXICAN ENCHILADAS SUIZAS



Mexican Enchiladas Suizas image

Corn tortillas are filled with shredded chicken and baked in a creamy green tomatillo sauce. The 'suizas' sauce is Spanish for 'Swiss,' a nod to its creaminess.

Provided by gem

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     Latin American     Mexican

Time 55m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pound fresh tomatillos, husks removed
1 large slice of onion
4 green serrano chiles, or to taste
1 clove garlic
½ cup water
1 cup heavy cream
½ cup shredded Chihuahua cheese
1 teaspoon chicken bouillon granules, or to taste
1 tablespoon vegetable oil, or as needed
12 corn tortillas
1 cooked chicken breast, shredded
1 cup shredded Chihuahua cheese

Steps:

  • Line a griddle or large frying pan with aluminum foil. Heat over medium-high heat. Add tomatillos, onion, chiles, and garlic. Grill until charred, 7 to 10 minutes, turning occasionally to cook evenly. Allow vegetables to cool slightly.
  • Transfer grilled vegetables to a blender with water, cream and 1/2 cup Chihuahua cheese; blend until smooth. Season with chicken bouillon granules; add additional water to thin sauce, if necessary,
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Heat a small drizzle of oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Fry tortillas in hot oil for a few seconds, one by one, until soft but not crispy. Add more oil as needed. Place cooked tortillas on a baking sheet lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil.
  • Pour 1/3 the sauce into a 9x13-inch glass baking dish. Fill tortillas with equal amounts of shredded chicken, roll up, and arrange in a single layer over the sauce. Pour remaining sauce on top and cover with remaining 1 cup mild Cheddar cheese.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until melted, about 25 minutes.

SWISS ENCHILADAS ( ENCHILADAS SUIZAS)



Swiss Enchiladas ( Enchiladas Suizas) image

This one is from my 1972 Sunset Mexican cookbook. Everyone has their preconceptions. One which is quite common in many places of the world is that the Swiss are all dairy farmers, a la Heidi. So it's only natural for the Mexicans, who have far fewer dairies, to name this dish in honor of that far away and mystic land. Be that as it may, this is one incredible dish, a real diet buster!

ENCHILADAS SUIZAS

An alternative enchiladas for variety and those who can't eat tomato-based sauces. This is very mild so if you want it spicier, try throwing in a jalapeño or two.

Provided by SharleneW

Categories     Chicken

Time 40m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 medium onions, chopped
8 mild green chilies, chopped or 2 (4 ounce) cans canned green chilies
1 garlic clove, minced
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons flour
1 1/2 cups chicken broth (go ahead and use the whole 14 ounce can rather than have that extra bit go to waste)
salt
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 lb monterey jack cheese, grated
1/4 lb cheddar cheese, grated
2 scallions, sliced
oil (for frying)
corn tortilla
1 1/2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
1 cup heavy cream

Steps:

  • Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat.
  • Add the onion and saute until soft, about 2 minutes.
  • Stir in the flour and chicken broth.
  • Add the chiles, garlic, salt to taste and cumin and simmer about 15 minutes to blend the flavors of the sauce.
  • Heat the oven to 350°F.
  • Grease a rectangular baking dish.
  • Put about 1/4 inch oil in a large frying pan and set over medium heat.
  • When hot, fry the tortillas briefly.
  • (Do not let them get crisp!).
  • Drain on paper towels.
  • Dip in the sauce.
  • Put some of the chicken in a strip on each tortilla.
  • Top with 2 to 3 tablespoons cheese.
  • Roll up enchiladas and put in prepared baking dish seam down.
  • Pour remaining sauce over top, then the cream. (I know this seems like a lot of cream and it does look like it might turn out runny, but after cooking it settles in and you end up with terrific, moist enchiladas and not an excess of sauce).
  • Sprinkle with remaining cheese and scallions.
  • Bake about 20 minutes (30 minutes if you are starting with cold chicken).
