  • Though these are more traditionally made with chicken, my favorite version is made with a mixture of roasted vegetables-carrots, zucchini or Mexican calabacitas, butternut, red onion, cauliflower, broccoli or broccoli rabe, pretty much anything that’s roastable. If I have some black/dinosaur/Tuscan kale, I slice a few leaves and mix them in to the tray of roasting vegetables a few minutes before they come out of the oven. For this recipe, I call for a modest amount of cheese melted on top. You may want more.

    When I was making my enchiladas for my store I would use freshly made white corn tortillas that I had roasted over open flame for a beautiful char. I would make a few hundred of them at a time and then make my tomatillo enchilada sauce and soften the tortillas quickly in the simmering sauce while assembling them. I would sell out of them in less than a day. And my store was located in a tiny little town in Northwest Wisconsin. I got the tortillas from a Mexican bakery in St Paul Mn.
    My grandmother from Iguala Mexico taught me how to open flame roast the tortillas to get the perfect taste without added fat. She was a diabetic and had to watch what she ate. I'm 60 years old now and STILL have to have my tortillas white corn only and then open flame roasted!
    She instilled my love of authentic true Mexican food.
    When she came to visit while I was at my father's house in Chicago, she would make me my eggs ham and cheese breakfast tortillas and hot chocolate while I ran to the Mexican bakery for our pastries to go with it.
    She didn't speak English and I didn't speak Spanish, but we taught each other enough to make it a magical thing. I was 13. The small amount of time that we had together is to this day one of my most cherished memories.

    I made these tonight for dinner oh man. What can I say? They were FANTASTIC! I did the red tomato version with Tex mex seasoned chicken, with two kinds of cheeses: Oaxaca cheese and aged cotija. Amazing flavor explosion. Thank you so much Rick! Oh and just fyi folks, I followed the recipe and measurements exactly for the sauce and at first it was a little bit too thin for my liking but still delicious. But I ended up simmering the sauce for over 30 minutes and it made a huge difference. It was literally like a very delicious spicy Mexican version of a tomato soup! So that’s my tip if you guys have time. To give the super very rich body and extra delicious flavor. Simmer the sauce for at least 30 minutes. Worth it haha. Cheers

  • @erickadriansanchezjimenez9471

    My God, Rick, you have helped my mother's kitchen tremendously with that trick with the oil on the tortillas. In truth, it was like when my mother learned to "whiten" the lard for the tamales with a mixer instead of using her tired hands with ice cubes. Traditional, sometimes means painfull.

      WHAT?!? I didn’t know I could use a mixer! 😂 Omg, that’s brilliant - I was diagnosed with arthritis in my 30s, so I’m always looking for ways to make cooking easier. We usually make tamales during the holidays for my family, and getting that fluffy masa for the tamales has always been hard on my hands. This is a game changer, for sure! I’ll need to check out that episode here on CZcams.

    We always use flour tortillas instead of corn. When I was a kid I had asked my grandmother to teach me how to make enchiladas and so we started off early in the morning making more tortillas (she would never buy them from the store). It took us all day and her sauce with the dried chillies that she soaked.She would blend those chillies w garlic and seasonings then she would run it through a seive.The sauce was so good. That's why I wanted her to teach me how, I was only 11 yrs old. I was always in the kitchen w her growing up.

    Thank you, Rick. I made the tomatillo enchiladas couple weeks ago using Sanborn's recipe, and they were okay. But, I learned a few tips from you today. Separate the filled tortillas a bit, add a bit of the sauce to the chicken so the flavor is infused throughout, and even though I oiled my tortillas your way, I did not seal them in a zip lock, so they were not as flexible and a couple broke apart. Lesson learned!

My smoked Cornish Game hen which was left over from last night's dinner will now become the star of the show. I will try them your way this time. I was a chef in Mexico for a while and my enchiladas were very well received by the locals and especially by my Mexican wife's daughter.
