Seriously. I think these may be the best ones ever.
Two weeks ago I tried Pioneer Woman's Butternut Squash and Kale Quesadillas. They were very good. Then a friend gave me a package of Costco's "fresh flour tortillas" in which you have to bake each one first (I did 30 seconds each side in a cast iron pan) before using it. They have no preservatives and can't be frozen unbaked. I made two for dinner and found them SO much better than packaged ones. Yet, what to do with 16 remaining tortillas? Dawn in MO's Creamy Chicken Enchiladas on Steroids 1 5-lb fryer, cut into pieces and poached in water & chicken broth for 30 minutes, then shredded. 1/2 large butternut squash, peeled down to the orange, cut in 1/2" dice and sauteed until soft 3 jarred roasted red peppers, rinsed, diced in 1/2" pieces, sauteed 2 onions, diced, sauteed until soft 1/2 head of kale, cut into bite-size pieces, sauteed 8 oz cream cheese 20 oz cheese: blend of cheddar, pepper jack and monterey jack. 16 fresh flour 8" tortillas The following was lightly added to the chicken mixture cumin, coriander, Norwoods seasoning. 1/2 -1 C chicken broth Sauce: 1 soup-size can of green enchilada sauce 1 soup-size can of whole green chilies, rinsed & diced to 1/2" 1/2 tsp cumin 1/2 tsp coriander 1/4 tsp garlic powder I made 4 pans of 4 enchilada each, using 1/2 C of chicken mixture and 1/4 C of cheese inside each tortilla. We ate one batch over two meals and the other 3 pans are in the freezer. Thanks Dawn. Her original recipe is already in the T&T, where it rightly belongs. Jesus saves. Buddha recycles. |
