Serves 1
Directions
- 1Cook chicken breasts in water with half a white onion, 2 garlic cloves, 2 bay leaves, and chicken bouillon powder.
- 2Cover the pot, and once the water boils, turn down the heat to low and cook for about 30 minutes.
- 3Once the chicken is cooked, shred it.
- 4Season the shredded chicken with salt and black pepper.
- 5Add Monterey Jack cheese to the shredded chicken.
- 6For the salsa, roast 3 chiles poblanos (with seeds removed) in a pan.
- 7Add 7 tomatillos to the pan and cook for about 5 minutes max to avoid bitterness.
- 8Add 3 chiles serranos to the pan for a spicier salsa, or use jalapeños instead.
- 9Once the chiles poblanos are nicely toasted, add them to a bag to sweat, making them easier to peel.
- 10To the blender, add the peeled chiles poblanos, roasted tomatillos, and chiles serranos.
- 11Add a small piece of white onion and 2 garlic cloves to the blender.
- 12Add a whole can of media crema (table cream) to the blender.
- 13Pour half a cup of the water used to boil the chicken into the blender.
- 14Season the salsa mixture with a spoonful of chicken bouillon powder and black pepper.
- 15Blend the salsa until smooth.
- 16Fry corn tortillas in oil for about 10 seconds on each side to prevent them from breaking when rolling.
- 17To a pan, add a small layer of the prepared salsa.
- 18Dip each fried tortilla into the sauce, fill with chicken and cheese, and roll them.
- 19Place the rolled enchiladas into the pan on top of the salsa.
- 20Pour the remaining salsa over the enchiladas.
- 21Add Monterey Jack cheese on top of the enchiladas.
- 22Cover the pan and let it simmer on low heat until the cheese melts.
- 23Serve the enchiladas suizas with rice.
