Green Chile Bites Recipes

Steps:

• PREHEAT oven to 400° F.
• Grease baking sheet.
• SEPARATE dough into four 3 x 6-inch rectangles on cutting board; press seams closed.
• Spread half block cream cheese onto each rectangle; top each rectangle with half can chiles.
• Fold rectangles in half lengthwise; cut each into eight pieces.
• COMBINE milk and egg in small bowl.
• Combine breadcrumbs and seasoning mix in shallow dish.
• Dip each bite into milk mixture; roll in breadcrumb mixture.
• Place on prepared baking sheet.
• BAKE for 18 to 20 minutes or until golden brown.
• Serve with salsa.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300°F.
• Prepare 12x8-inch baking dish by spraying it with cooking spray.
• In medium bowl, mix together the eggs, salt, pepper, and cayenne pepper sauce.
• In large bowl, combine chiles and both cheeses. Pour the egg mixture into the cheese mixture and stir together well.
• Pat the mixture down into the prepared baking dish and bake until the center is firm, about 45 minutes.
• Once cooled, cut into small squares and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler to high.
• Begin by making the green chile salsa: Place the chiles on a roasting tray with the garlic and onions. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt, pepper and cumin and then place under the broiler to cook, 5 to 7 minutes. Once the skins have blistered and the onions have slightly charred around the edges, remove from the oven. Let cool slightly, then remove and discard the skins of the large chiles, along with the seeds and stems. Place the chile flesh, onions and garlic in a food processor. Add the lime juice and pulse 5 to 6 times to roughly chop the vegetables up; do not over chop as you want the salsa to be chunky and still have lots of texture where you can see pieces of the chile. Taste and season once more, then set aside as you prepare the burgers.
• For the burgers: Preheat an outdoor grill and wipe down the grates with an oil-blotted paper towel. This not only cleans the grill but creates a nonstick surface.
• Form the ground brisket into four 8-ounce patties about 1/2-inch thick. Make them slightly bigger in diameter than your buns, as they shrink when they cook. Also, add a dimple in the center as the burger puffs up in the middle when cooked, and this will ensure a flat, even patty. Sprinkle both sides with salt and pepper, and then place on the hot part of the grill. Cook for 5 to 7 minutes on one side, then flip the patties and top with the cheese. Close the grill or place a metal bowl over the top to melt the cheese and cook for 2 to 3 more minutes. Cut open the hamburger buns and lightly toast on the grill.
• To assemble, place the lettuce, onion and tomato on the base of the burger bun. Top with a grilled patty and place a heaping spoonful of roasted green chile salsa on top. Smear the top burger bun with mayo, if desired, and place the top half of the burger bun on top. Serve.

Steps:

• In a small Dutch oven over medium-high heat, add the oil. When hot, add the onions and jalapeno and saute until just starting to caramelize, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook 1 minute more.
• Reduce the heat to medium, sprinkle the onion mixture with the flour and stir constantly until lightly browned, about 2 minutes. Add the reserved liquid from the chiles, 1 cup water, the vinegar and salt and stir until the liquid is smooth and all the flour is dissolved.
• Add the chiles and pepper and simmer for 5 to 6 minutes. Puree in a blender, or with a stick blender, and add the lime juice. Adjust to taste for salt and pepper. Refrigerate for up to 1 week.

Steps:

• For the green chile gravy: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Drizzle the bell peppers with 2 tablespoons oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place the peppers on a sheet tray and roast until charred and soft, about 15 minutes. Let cool until cool enough to handle, then peel, core, seed and roughly chop. Set aside.
• Add the butter and remaining 2 tablespoons oil to a large pot over medium heat. Add the onions, garlic and a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir and cook until soft and translucent, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the flour and cook, stirring, until it starts to turn into a roux and no longer looks raw. Add the beer, the canned chiles, roasted bell peppers and 4 to 5 pickled jalapeno slices. Bring to a boil, then simmer until thickened, about 20 minutes. Turn off the heat and puree in a blender (see Cook's Note). Taste and adjust for seasoning. Set aside.
• For the burgers: Preheat a griddle or cast-iron pan over medium-high heat. Divide the ground beef into 4 equal patties and sprinkle aggressively with salt and pepper. Place on the hot griddle and cook until the juices start to form on the tops of the patties, 3 to 5 minutes. Flip the patties and cover each with 2 slices pepper jack cheese. Cook until medium-rare, 3 to 4 minutes more.
• Place a tortilla on a flat surface and place a patty in the center, cheese-side down. Fold the tortilla around the burger, like an empanada. Flip and place on a sheet pan, seam-side down. Top with another slice of pepper jack cheese. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and patties. Place in the oven to melt the cheese on top, 5 to 6 minutes. Remove the burgers from the oven and top with a generous amount of the green chile sauce. Garnish with the sour cream, more pickled jalapenos and shredded iceberg lettuce.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
• Sprinkle the cheese and chiles in the bottom of a 9 X 13 inch baking dish.
• P our the eggs over the top.
• Bake for 30-40 minutes or until golden brown and firm.
• Cool to room temperature and then cut into squares.

Steps:

• In a fairly large soup pot, heat olive oil.
• Sautee garlic until golden, then add onion.
• Sautee until it begins to become translucent, then add pork.
• Salt and pepper to taste.
• Cook over fairly high heat, until pork browns, then add cumin, lower heat to medium, and cook meat through.
• Add all remaining ingredients.
• Bring to a boil, and let boil 10 minutes or so, then cover, and reduce heat to low.
• Cook at least 1 hour on low, and up to 3, depending on how thick you like your chili, stirring occasionally.
• Serve with grated colby-jack cheese and a big dollop of sour cream, chopped green onions or cilantro, and tortilla chips!
• Note:Any other kind of meat could easily be substituted--chicken, turkey, beef, whatever appeals to you!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Grease a 9 x 13-inch glass baking dish.
• Combine all ingredients in a large bowl to blend. Transfer mixture to prepared baking dish.
• Cover and bake 30 minutes. Uncover and bake until top is golden brown, about 45 minutes longer. Serve hot.
