Steps:

• Season chuck steaks on both sides with chili powder, onion powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
• Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook chuck steaks in the hot oil in batches until browned, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer to a slow cooker.
• Heat remaining 1 1/2 teaspoon vegetable oil in the same skillet. Add 2 green onions and garlic; cook and stir until browned but not burnt, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat; chop garlic coarsely and return to the skillet.
• Whisk tequila, lime juice, lemon juice, orange juice, and ginger together in a bowl. Mash in kiwi using a fork. Stir in green onion-garlic mixture and chipotle sauce. Pour over chuck steaks in the slow cooker.

• Transfer chuck steaks to a cutting board; shred with 2 forks. Mix in 2 raw green onions.
• Pour cooking liquid from the slow cooker into the skillet. Simmer over medium heat until reduced and thickened into a sauce, about 10 minutes. Stir in shredded steak; simmer until most of the sauce is absorbed, about 5 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Coat the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish with 1/4 of the pasilla chile sauce.
• Spoon shredded steak mixture into tortillas. Wrap up and place seam-side down, close together, in the baking dish. Pour remaining pasilla chile sauce over tortillas. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese and chives on top.

Steps:

• Seasoning The Meat Lay steaks in a non-corrosive dish and sprinkle both sides with the lime juice. Cover and refrigerate 1 - 4 hours. Side Dishes Scrape the cooked beans into one small saucepan and the tomatillo sauce into another; cover them and set aside. Scoop the rajas into a small, oven-proof dish, cover with foil and set aside. Last Minute Preliminaries About one hour before serving, put together the guacamole. Lay the romaine leaves on a plate and mound a portion of guacamole on each one; decorate with radish roses or slices. cover lightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate. If the tortillas are moist, lay then in a single layer to dry until leathery. Heat the oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium-high heat. When hot enough to make the edge of a tortilla really sizzle, quick-fry the tortillas one at a time, about 3 seconds per side, to soften them. Drain well on paper towels, stack them up, wrap in foil, place in the over and turn it on to 200 degrees. Set the skillet aside to use for frying the meat. Set out the cheese and onion. Place the rajas and 4 large heatproof dinner plates in the oven. Set the beans and the tomatillo sauce over low heat to reheat. Frying The Meat Dry the steaks on paper towels, then sprinkle with salt and pepper. Heat the skillet from Step 3 over medium-high heat; if there isn't enough oil left over to lightly coat the bottom, then add a little more. When the pan is quite hot, lay in the steaks. Fry rare or medium-rare, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes per side; don't overcook. Remove to a wire rack set over a plate and keep warm in the oven. (As the meat "rests, it will reabsorb juices that would otherwise leak when cut.) Assemble The Dish Lay out the plates and assemble 2 enchiladas on each one: Remove a tortilla from the foil, lay it on the side of one plate, ladle a little sauce in the center, fold in half, then ladle sauce over the top; repeat with a second tortilla, letting it overlap, the first one a little, then sprinkle them with cheese and onion. Lay a steak on each plate, top with a portion of the rajas, then slide a "romaine boat" of guacamole in beside it. Serve immediately with bowls of steaming beans set to the side of each plate.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium. Cook onion and garlic, stirring occasionally, until starting to soften, about 5 minutes. Add chiles and cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is lightly browned and vegetables are soft, about 5 minutes. Add tomatillos and cook, stirring occasionally, just until starting to soften, about 3 minutes. Add cilantro and 1 1/2 cups water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer until tomatillos soften, 20-25 minutes. Let cool slightly; transfer to a blender. Purée until smooth; season with salt. Return salsa verde to saucepan and keep warm until ready to use.
• Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium. Cook onion and garlic, stirring occasionally, until starting to soften, about 5 minutes. Add both chiles, tomatoes, and 1 1/2 cups water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer until tomatoes and chiles soften, 20-25 minutes. Let cool slightly; transfer to a blender. Purée until smooth; season with salt. Return salsa roja to saucepan and keep warm until ready to use.
• Place chicken, bay leaves, and allspice in a small pot and pour in water to cover by 1"; season lightly with salt. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer gently until chicken is nearly cooked through (an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of chicken should register 145°F-150°F), 20-25 minutes from the time water starts simmering. Let chicken cool at least 1 hour (it should be just warm). If you have the time, cover and chill up to 12 hours.
• Remove chicken from broth. Pull meat from bones and shred; discard skin and bones. Place meat in a large saucepan and pour in just enough broth to cover. Set aside any remaining broth for another use. Gently reheat chicken over medium-low; season with salt.
• Meanwhile, mix crème fraîche and queso fresco in a small bowl to combine.
• Heat oil in a small skillet over medium-high until hot but not smoking. Submerge each tortilla in oil long enough to soften but not so long that they fall apart, 5-10 seconds each. Transfer to a rimmed baking sheet lined with paper towels to drain.
• Working one at a time, fill each tortilla with about 1/3 cup shredded chicken and roll up tightly. Place 3 tortillas each, seam side down, into bowls. Ladle 1/2 cup of each sauce on opposite ends of enchiladas. Top with a big spoonful of crème fraîche mixture and scatter onion over.
• Chicken can be poached and shredded 3 days ahead. Place in a small bowl and pour in broth to submerge; cover and chill.
