Here's another good one, Kelley - Enchiladas Verde. This the way they are served in Mexico.
1 whole chicken breast, about 12 oz
6 cups water
5 cloves garlic
1 small onion, cut in half
3 small sprigs parsley
1 carrot, cut in small pieces
2-4 chiles serranos (small green chiles, jalapenos will do if you can't find them)
2 lbs. tomatillos, husks removed
1/2 cup coarsely chopped cilantro
1 TBS oil
12 corn tortillas
oil for frying
1/3 cup thick cream (can use creme fraiche)
1/2 cup crumbled queso fresco (if you can't find this, use feta)
Place the chicken, water, 3 cloves garlic, 1/4 onion, parsley, carrot, salt to taste in a large saucepan and simmer until the chicken is tender, about 20 minutes. Remove and shred the chicken, reserving the stock.
Add 2 cloves garlic and the chiles to a saucepan of boiling water. After 5 minutes, add the tomatillos and cook another 7 minutes. Drain.
In a blender, puree the tomatillos with the garlic, chiles and another onion quarter. Add the cilantro and process briefly so that the cilantro is not ground too fine.
Add one cup of the reserved chicken stock.
Heat the oil in a small skillet and saute the pureed tomatillo mixture for a few minutes, Add 1 tsp. salt and correct seasonings. Lower the heat and cook uncovered for about 10 minutes. If the sauce is too thick, add another 1/2 cup stock.
Heat 1/2 inch oil in another skillet and fry the tortillas until they just begin to soften, about 10 seconds on a side. Dip the soft tortilla in the sauce, then transfer to a plate. Place some chicken in the center, roll up and arrange on a platter. Repeat until the tortillas are all used. Spoon the rest of the warm sauce over the platter and garnish with sliced onion, cream and cheese. Some sliced avocado would also be a tasty garnish.
Note that in Mexico, enchiladas are never baked in the oven like a casserole, the way I learned to do it in the States. If you want, you can keep them warm for a while in the oven on the platter. This sounds like alot of trouble, but it is VERY GOOD. Hope you enjoy.
