Turkey Enchiladas (but with Chicken this time)

I make this dish with one of the roasted salsa verde recipe suggested by Rick Bayless, and I may toss in whatever is in the fridge that goes well with enchiladas -- here, you see some cherry tomatoes that blistered nicely in the oven.

This is a nice dish to use up rotisserie chicken, or, leftover turkey breast.

Turkey Enchiladas
Gimme Some Oven

2 c salsa verde
2 avocados, pitted, dicedd
1/2 red onion, diced
8 flour tortillas
3 c turkey or chicken, cooked
3 c Mexican cheese, shredded
1 14 oz can Great Northern beans
1/2 c cilantro, chopped

Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray a large 9×13-inch baking dish with cooking spray. Then spread ⅓ cup salsa verde evenly along the bottom of the dish. Set aside.

Set aside 1 cup of the shredded cheese, 1 avocado, and ½ cup red onion for later use.

Lay a flour tortilla out a workspace. Spread 2 tablespoons salsa verde all over the surface of the tortilla. Then in a line down the center, layer about a handful of avocado, red onion, turkey, cheese and beans. (Portion each ingredient so that you use about ⅛ of the entire portion per enchilada, since there are 8 total.) Fold the tortilla over to seal it, then transfer the enchilada to the pan. Repeat with the remaining tortillas until all 8 enchiladas are in the pan. You may need to squish them together a bit to make room.

Spread the remaining salsa verde on top of the enchiladas. Then sprinkle the reserved 1 cup shredded cheese evenly on top. Bake for 20 minutes.

Remove, and sprinkle the enchiladas evenly with the reserved avocado, red onion, and the fresh cilantro leaves. Serve immediately.

Chicken Traybake with Roasted Poblano and Tomato Salsa

This dish is delicious! Easy! And, beautiful to look at! The original recipe calls for you to process all the cooked vegetables together into a chunky salsa, but I recommend serving it as is so you have an automatic side dish. The original also calls for cooking chicken bone-in, but, the more I cook traybakes, the more I advocate for slicing chicken into tenders and cooking boneless. Just a safer bake that way because everything comes to the same temperature at the same time. Chicken Traybake with Roasted Poblano and Tomato Salsa Milk Street 1 T chili powder 2 poblano, stemmed, seeded, chopped 1 yellow onion, root end intact, in 8 wedges 1 pint cherry tomatoes 1/4 c olive oil 1 T brown sugar 1 T oregano, dried 3 lb chicken, bone-in, skin-on, trimmed 10 cloves garlic, peeled 1 T vinegar 1/4 c cilantro, chopped Heat oven to 450.

Mayocoba Beans with Green Chiles

I love this dish so much that I can barely stand it. Delicious the night it was made, and fantastic as leftovers throughout the week. Mayocoba beans are easily replaced -- try pintos, if you can't find mayocobas. Mayocoba Beans with Green Chiles Baptism of Fire 3-4 green chiles, roasted and chopped 1 onion, chopped 1 clove garlic, minced 1 T lard or olive oil 1/2 tsp oregano 1 tsp cumin pepper 1 c mayocoba beans, dry 3 c water 1 tsp salt Cook the green chiles, onion, garlic, oregano, cumin, and black pepper in the fat until the onions begin to caramelize. Add the water and bring to a boil. Turn off the heat and let the beans sit, uncovered, for an hour. You may drain the water to remove some of the slightly indigestible sugars that cause gassiness. If you decide to drain them, add enough water back into the pot to cover the beans with about 2" of water above the beans for cooking. Bring the beans back to a boil and cook, until tender. This will take...

This "quiche" is so simple to make - you can prepare everything the night before, assemble it in the morning, and have it ready to go soon after waking up. An ideal dish to serve company, too.
