Chorizo Enchiladas With Guajillo Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• For the enchilada sauce: Heat the canola oil in a medium saucepot over medium heat. Add the onion and saute until softened, 5 to 6 minutes. Add the garlic and cook another 2 minutes. Transfer the onions and garlic to a blender. Add the stock, chili powder, salt, pepper and tomato paste and blend on high until smooth, about 30 seconds.
• For the enchiladas: Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chorizo and cook, breaking it up into small pieces with a wooden spoon, until cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes. Drain off the rendered fat. Let cool.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Heat the canola oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Fry each tortilla until lightly crisp but still pliable, 10 to 15 seconds. Drain on a baking sheet lined with paper towels.
• In a large bowl, toss together the chorizo, home fries or potatoes and 1 cup of the cheese.
• Ladle about 3/4 cup of the enchilada sauce into the bottom of a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Place about 1/4 cup of the chorizo mixture in the center of each tortilla and roll up. Arrange the filled tortillas in the baking dish seam-side down in a single row from end to end. Pour the remaining enchilada sauce over the top. Top with the remaining 1 cup cheese. Bake until the cheese is melted and bubbly, 15 to 20 minutes.
• While the enchiladas cook, combine the sour cream, hot sauce and lime juice in a small bowl.
• Drizzle the enchiladas with the sour cream mixture and garnish with the cilantro.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir beef in the hot skillet, sprinkling in pepper and taco seasoning, until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Add onion, bell peppers, and carrots; saute for 5 minutes.
• Pour guajillo sauce into a large measuring cup and stir in sugar. Pour sauce over the beef mixture; stir in black beans.
• Place 3 tortillas on the bottom of a casserole dish. Add half the meat mixture on top. Sprinkle 1/2 of the shredded cheese on top. Repeat the layers, ending with cheese on top.
• Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is melted and golden brown, about 25 minutes.

Steps:

• SAUCE: wash and clean guajillo chiles from seeds and veins. Toast them in a dry skillet (cast iron is best) or griddle, over high heat just until soft and fragrant, about only 10 seconds on each side. (Caution: longer toast time make them bitter). Toast tomatoes until the skin is charred.
• Blend the toasted chiles and tomatoes in the blender or food processor with garlic, spices, some chicken stock and salt and freshly gound pepper to taste. Set aside.
• Heat the oil in a saucepan over high heat and saute the onion until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Add the guajillo chiles sauce and chicken stock and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 20 more minutes until thickened and taste for salt season.
• ASSEMBLE ENCHILADAS: Preheat Oven to 350ºF. Saute chorizo and onion in a skillet over high heat, breaking up the meat until the meat is thoroughly cooked about 10 minutes.
• Stir in the potatoes and remove from the heat. Heat about 1 cup of oil in skillet. Use a pair of tongs and dip a tortilla in the oil for a few seconds until softened.
• Transfer to a plate atop a few layers of paper toweling to drain. Place 3 to 4 tablespoons of the filling on each tortilla and roll them up tightly.
• Spread about 1 cup of the guajillo sauce in the bottom of a large baking dish and place the enchiladas seam-side down in the dish.
• Cover with about 2 cups of the sauce and sprinkle with the shredded cheese.
• Bake in oven for 15 to 20 minutes until cheese is melted and enchiladas are heated through.
• Serve with Mexican rice, Charro beans or refried and some sour cream, shredded cheese and avocado slices on top. Mmmmmmm -- delicious!.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400F.
• Remove sausages from casings. Finely chop jalapeno pepper. Dice green pepper.
• Fry sausages and peppers until peppers are limp and meat is thoroughly cooked. You may add 1/2 cup of water and cook on medium until water has evaporated.
• Take a tortilla, cover 2/3 of it lightly with the shredded mozzarella cheese and 1/8 of the sausage and pepper mixture, then roll up the tortilla and place it in a greased casserole pan. Continue until all tortillas are filled and rolled.
• In a small saucepan, combine all the sauce ingredients and simmer for 15 minutes.
• Cover with Red Enchilada sauce, making sure each enchilada is thoroughly coated. Cover the whole casserole with grated cheddar cheese. Cover and bake in a 400 F oven for 30 minutes or until the cheese melts and the sauce is bubbling.

Steps:

• Set out the cheese and steam heat the tortillas. Coat the bottom of a 13x9-inch baking dish with a little sauce. Roll 1/4 cup of the cheese into each tortilla and fit into the pan. Ladle 2 cups of the sauce over top, sprinkle with remaining cheese and bake at 425 degrees F until bubbly and browned. Sprinkle with chopped onion and cilantro to taste and serve.
• Cheeses to use - such as Chihuahua (queso menonita), asaderos, or quesadilla, a good substitute can be Sonoma Jack, Others - Monterey Jack or mild cheddar.
