Ingredients
-
1 kg of green tomatoes
-
1 chicken breast divided into 4
-
100 ml chicken broth
-
Corn tortillas
-
Green chilies or serrano chilis to taste
-
Cilantro
-
1 cup sour cream
-
Manchego cheese
-
2 cloves of garlic
-
1⁄2 yellow onion
-
Salt to taste
-
Vegetable oil
Instructions
1. Place the tomatoes in a saucepan, cover them with water and add the chilies. Bring everything to a boil and cook for 10-15 minutes.
2. While the tomatoes cook, place the chicken in another saucepan to cook it, adding a clove of garlic and 1⁄4 of an onion. When it’s thoroughly cooked, remove it from the heat, shred it, and put it aside.
3. Once the tomatoes and chilies cool a bit, make the sauce: Blend them together with 1⁄4 of an onion, a garlic clove, the chicken broth, the sour cream, a few coriander sprigs, and salt to taste.
4. Add a teaspoon of vegetable oil to a saucepan. When it’s hot, pour in the sauce and cook it over low heat.
5. In a frying pan, place 2 tablespoons of oil. Once hot, place each tortilla and cook slightly on one side and then the other. Later, place some shredded chicken in the middle and roll it up.
6. Cover the “enchiladas” with the sauce and top with grated or sliced cheese. Bake for 5 minutes or until the cheese melts.
