Recipes for "salsa verde"

1. In a large soup pot, set over medium heat, cook together the butter, onion, carrots, celery, and garlic for 5 minutes, until fragrant. Add the taco seasoning and season with salt and pepper. Pour over the broth and add the potatoes. Bring to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.

2. Mix in the red salsa, salsa verde, and hot sauce. Stir in the shredded chicken (if using) and cilantro.

3. Ladle the soup into bowls and top with tortilla chips. Finish as desired with a dollop of yogurt, cheese, green onions, avocado, and cilantro. Enjoy!

Put chicken thighs in a medium-sized saucepan and just cover with water. Add the halved garlic, 1/4 of an onion, and 2 teaspoons of salt to the water.

Bring to a simmer, reduce the heat to very low to maintain the heat at just below a simmer, and cook, covered, for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the chicken is just barely cooked through.

Remove chicken thighs to a separate bowl and let cool enough to touch.

While the chicken is cooking, put the tomatillos and serrano chili peppers in a separate sauce pan and cover them with water. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer. Simmer until the tomatillos are cooked, and have changed color, but are not mushy, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat.

Use a slotted spoon to transfer tomatillos and serrano chilis to a blender. Add 1/4 cup of the tomatillo cooking liquid to the blender, as well as 2 cloves of garlic, a half cup of chopped onion, 1 tablespoon of lime juice, and about 1/2 cup of chopped cilantro. Add one teaspoon of salt.

Purée until blended, 15 to 30 seconds. Taste for heat. If not spicy enough add another chili pepper (it doesn't have to be cooked). Add more salt to taste if necessary.

You should have about 3 cups of salsa.

Remove the cooked chicken meat from the bones (if using bone-in thighs).

Shred the meat with a fork or knife. Put the chicken in a bowl and add 1/2 cup of the tomatillo sauce to the chicken. Taste the chicken; if it needs salt, add a little.

Heat a tablespoon of oil in a frying pan on medium-high heat. Add a tortilla to the pan and let it sizzle for 10 seconds or so. Use a metal spatula to flip it to the other side. Let it sizzle for a few seconds. Place another tortilla on top of this one (to soak up the excess oil) and flip again.

You can keep going, stacking corn tortillas on top of the tortillas that appear to have excess oil. This way the new tortillas absorb some of the excess fat from the other tortillas.

When the tortillas are heated through, remove them to a plate lined with paper towel. Add a more oil to the pan as needed, and continue to heat through and soften all of the tortillas.

Scoop a spoonful of chicken into the center of the tortilla and roll up the tortilla. Place the rolled tortilla seam side down in a casserole dish and repeat with all of the tortillas.

Cover the rolled tortillas with foil and keep warm in a 250°F for 10 minutes.

Place the remaining tomatillo salsa in a small saucepan and heat on medium high heat until simmering. Remove warmed rolled tortillas from the oven and smother with the salsa.

Let some of the sauce go between the rolled up tortillas so that it gets to the bottom of the pan.

Top with crumbled cotija cheese, chopped red onion, and chopped fresh cilantro.

Thin the sour cream with a tablespoon of water and drizzle all over the top of the enchiladas. (Don't skip the sour cream! It's essential to balance the sharp acidity of the salsa verde.)

Serve immediately.

Gather all ingredients.

Place tomatillos, onion, chile pepper, and garlic into a large saucepan; season with cilantro, oregano, salt, and cumin. Pour in water and bring to a boil over high heat; reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until the tomatillos are soft, 10 to 15 minutes.

Transfer tomatillo mixture into a blender in batches; puree until smooth.

Serve with chips.

Sprinkle the chicken with salt and pepper. Coat the chicken with the egg white. Combine the panko and the crushed chips. Dip/press the chicken into the panko mixture until well coated. Fry the chicken in 1-2 tbs. oil over medium-high heat, about 2-3 minutes on each side.

When the outside is nice and golden brown, transfer to the oven and bake for 15-25 minutes at 400 degrees (depending on the size and temperature of your chicken breasts).

Add the cheese; return to the oven for a few minutes until melted.

Spoon salsa verde on the plate; place chicken on the salsa verde, and sprinkle cilantro sauce and pico de gallo over the top! Que bueno!

Put the pork, salsa verde, chopped onion, chicken stock, cumin seeds, coriander seeds, and oregano in a large, thick-bottomed pot, and heat on high heat. Bring to a boil, and reduce heat to a low simmer. Cover and simmer until meat pulls away easily with a fork, about 3 hours.

Preheat oven broiler. Remove meat from the pot and put into a roasting pan. With 2 forks, tear the meat into large shreds, spreading them out in an even layer in the roasting pan. Put pan on the top rack of the oven. Broil for 5 to 10 minutes until edges and some parts are brown and crispy.

While the meat is browning in the oven, skim the fat from the liquid in the large pot. (Discard but do not put the fat down the drain or you will clog your pipes.)

Heat the pot on high and vigorously boil the remaining liquid, stirring, until reduced to 2 1/2 cups, several minutes.

Return the meat to the pot with the liquid. Stir in chopped cilantro. Season with salt.

Serve with heated and softened corn tortillas (20 seconds each in the microwave spread out over a paper towel will heat and softened packaged tortillas sufficiently), diced avocado, crumbed Cotija or grated Monterey jack cheese, sour cream (or crema fresca), and seasoned cabbage slaw.

Seasoned Cabbage Slaw

Place thinly sliced cabbage in a medium sized bowl. Sprinkle with seasoned rice vinegar, salt and pepper. You can substitute white vinegar or apple cider vinegar for the rice vinegar, if you do, sprinkle on some sugar to help balance the acidity of the vinegar. Toss. Adjust seasonings. Let sit for 10 minutes for the cabbage to absorb some of the dressing.

Cover completely. There should be no exposed chicken or it will dry out.

Bake the chicken for 25 to 30 minutes. If you have a meat thermometer, use it. The chicken should be removed from the oven when the internal temperature of the breast meat reaches 150°F.

Worried about taking the chicken out at 150°F? No problem — it goes right back into the oven to finish baking in the next step.

Increase the oven heat to 400°F. Sprinkle the cheese over the chicken, and return to the oven for another 5 to 10 minutes, enough time for the cheese to melt and the sauce to get bubbly.

Cut in half and place cut side down, along with 5 unpeeled garlic cloves, on a foil-lined baking sheet. Place under a broiler for about 5-7 minutes to lightly blacken the skin. Remove from oven, let cool enough to handle.

If you want the additional flavor of chilies other than jalapenos, you can add a couple Anaheim or poblano chiles. Either use canned green chiles or roast fresh chilies over a gas flame or under the broiler until blackened all around. Let cool in a bag, remove the skin, seeds, and stem.

Season the pork cubes generously with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a large, heavy-bottomed skillet over medium high heat and brown pork chunks well on all sides.

Work in batches so that the pork is not crowded in the pan and has a better chance to brown well. Using a slotted spoon or tongs, lift pork out of pan and place in bowl, set aside.

Pour off excess fat, anything beyond a tablespoon, and place the onions and garlic in the same skillet and cook, stirring occasionally until limp, about 5 minutes.

If your skillet is large enough to cook the entire batch of chile verde, with the sauce and meat, then add the pork back to the pan. If not, get a large soup pot and add the onion mixture and the pork to it. Add the oregano to the pan.

Add the tomatillo chile verde sauce to the pork and onions. Add the chicken stock (enough to cover the meat). Add a pinch of ground cloves. Add a little salt and pepper. (Not too much as the chile verde will continue to cook down and concentrate a bit.)

Bring to a boil and reduce to a slight simmer. Cook for 2-3 hours uncovered or until the pork is fork tender.
