Enchilada Chops Recipes

PORK ENCHILADAS

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Combine cooked pork, enchilada sauce, onion powder, 1/2 cup sour cream, green chilies, and one cup of the shredded cheese in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, stir together tomato soup, remaining 1/2 cup sour cream, garlic powder, and cumin.
• Pour a thin layer of the tomato soup mixture into a 9x13 baking dish. Spread pork mixture down the center of each tortilla. Roll tortillas to enclose filling; place seam side down in the baking dish. Pour the remaining soup mixture over the filled tortillas. Top with the remaining 1 cup cheese.
• Bake in preheated oven until hot and bubbly, about 30 minutes.

CHEESY PORK ENCHILADAS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Mix the chili powder, salt, oregano and pepper together in a small bowl. Sprinkle the cubed pork chunks with the spice mixture and put into a large Dutch oven. Add 1 cup of the salsa verde, chicken broth, garlic and onions. Stir together with a wooden spoon. Put the pot on high heat and bring the mixture to a simmer. Transfer to the oven and cook, covered, until the pork is tender and easily shreds, about 1 hour 45 minutes. Once done, shred the pork in the Dutch oven with a pair of tongs or 2 forks.
• Turn the oven up to 350 degrees F.
• Combine the remaining 2 cups salsa verde and sour cream in a wide, medium bowl. Spread about 1/2 cup of the mixture on the bottom of a large rectangular casserole dish.
• Wrap the tortillas up in a damp paper towel and microwave 40 seconds. Lay the warm tortillas out on your cutting board. Dip into the sour cream-salsa mixture and fill evenly with the shredded pork mixture and sprinkle of the cheese. Roll the enchilada up and place seam-side down in the baking dish. Pour the remaining sauce over the top and top with the rest of the cheese. Bake 30 minutes. Garnish with cilantro sprigs, if using.

ENCHILADA CHOPS

Steps:

• Lay pork chops in baking dish and cover with the enchilada sauce.
• Bake uncovered at 350 for 20 minutes.
• After 20 min with chops in the oven, turn them in the sauce and bake 10 more minutes.
• Turn off the oven and remove baked and coated chops from the dish and place on a platter.
• Cover with finely chopped onions and shredded cheese and put them back into the warm oven just to melt cheese.
• Serve and enjoy.

SIMPLE PERFECT ENCHILADAS

Steps:

• In a saucepan over medium-low heat, combine the canola oil and flour. Whisk together and allow to bubble for 1 minute. Pour in the red sauce, chicken broth, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer while you prepare the other ingredients.
• While the sauce is simmering, brown the ground beef with the onions in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Drain the fat, add the salt and stir to combine. Turn off the heat and set aside.
• In a small skillet over medium heat, heat some canola oil. Lightly fry the tortillas just until soft. Do not crisp. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate. Repeat until all the tortillas have been fried.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Spread 1/2 cup of the sauce in the bottom of a 9- by 13-inch baking dish. Next, one at a time, dip each tortilla into the sauce. Set the sauce-soaked tortilla on a plate. Place on some of the meat mixture, chilies, green onions and black olives. Top with a generous portion of grated Cheddar. Roll up the tortilla to contain the filling inside.
• Place the tortilla seam side down in the baking dish. Repeat with the rest of the tortillas and pour the remaining sauce over the top. End with a generous sprinkling of cheese and any other bits of chiles, green onions or olives you have left over from the filling.
• Bake the enchiladas for 20 minutes, or until bubbly. Sprinkle chopped cilantro over the top and serve.

THE BEST PORK ENCHILADAS

Steps:

• Rinse the red onion in cold water, breaking up the rings and removing any white membrane between the layers. Drain well. Toss the red onions, vinegar, 1 1/2 cups water, 2 teaspoons salt and the sugar in a medium bowl until the sugar and salt dissolve. Cover with plastic wrap and let sit at room temperature until ready to serve.
• Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large heavy pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Cook the pork, turning once, until golden brown on two sides, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
• Add the yellow onions to the same pot, season with salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the garlic, tomato paste, cumin and oregano and cook, stirring occasionally, until the paste is brick red and the mixture is fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the ancho and pasilla chiles, bay leaves, raisins, broth and 1 tablespoon salt. Return the pork and any accumulated juices to the pot. Bring to a boil, reduce to low, cover and simmer until the pork is falling apart and easily shreds, 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
• Remove the bay leaves and discard. Transfer the pork to a medium bowl. Reserve the cooking liquid.
• Let the hot cooking liquid cool for 5 minutes or so, then transfer it to a blender, filling no more than halfway. Remove the center cap from the lid and place it on the blender. Cover the lid with a folded kitchen towel to catch splatters, and pulse until smooth. Pour the sauce into a medium bowl and repeat with any remaining cooking liquid. Season with salt.
• Pour 1/2 cup of the chile sauce over the pork. Use a potato masher to smash the pork into the sauce; it should fall apart completely. Remove any remaining large pieces of fat and discard. Stir to combine and season with salt if necessary.
• Arrange a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 425 degrees F.
• Heat the remaining 1 cup oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat until it bubbles immediately when the edge of a tortilla touches the surface. Working one at a time, fry the tortillas until just starting to brown and crisp, about 10 seconds per side (they should still be somewhat pliable). Drain on paper towels.
• Dip both sides of each tortilla in the chile sauce just to coat and transfer to a rimmed baking sheet. Spread 1/2 cup of the chile sauce in a 6-inch strip down the center of a 13-by-9-inch baking dish.
• Spoon 1/4 cup shredded pork across the center of a tortilla. Fold one side over the filling, then roll up the tortilla. Place seam-side down in the prepared baking dish. Repeat with more sauce and remaining tortillas (the enchiladas should be nestled right up against each other in the pan). Top with any remaining sauce in your bowl or leftover on the baking sheet. Cover tightly with foil and bake until the sauce bubbles, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove the foil, top with the cheese and bake until the cheese is melted but not brown, 5 to 10 minutes. Let sit 10 minutes.
• Top the enchiladas with the pickled red onions. Serve with lime wedges for squeezing over.

MEXICAN ENCHILADAS RECIPE

Steps:

• Warm the oil over very low heat in a heat-proof shallow dish or skillet. You want it very warm but not burning hot.
• Keep another heat-proof dish or skillet over low heat to keep the tortillas warm.
• Dip each tortilla in the warm oil for 5 to 8 seconds until the tortilla is warmed through and pliable.
• Put the homemade or purchased enchilada sauce in a shallow dish or bowl so that you can easily dip the tortillas in it.
• Do the same with all the tortillas.
• Fold one side over, then the other side.
• Turn the enchilada over, seam side down, so the tortilla stays closed, and place it in the baking dish.
• Repeat with each tortilla until you have filled the dish. Depending on the amount of filling of used and the size of the tortillas, you will use between 10 and 14 tortillas.
• Serve and enjoy!

MILD CHEESY CHICKEN ENCHILADAS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
• In a medium bowl, mix the chicken, onion, 1 cup Cheddar cheese, and 3/4 cup sour cream. Disperse the mixture evenly among the 8 tortillas. Roll into enchiladas, and arrange in single layer in the prepared baking dish.
• In a saucepan over low heat, melt together the remaining Cheddar cheese and sour cream. Pour over the enchiladas, and top with tomatoes and olives.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 30 minutes, or until hot and bubbly. Garnish with tomatoes and olives.

PORK CHOPS WITH GREEN CHILLI SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat the cooking oil (we use Canola) in a non-stick pan.
• Place thawed pork chops in the heated oil and cook until thoroughly done and slightly browned on both sides.
• While the pork chops are cooking, mix the enchilada sauce, green chilies, garlic, and sour cream together. Add salt and pepper to taste.
• Once pork chops are cooked through, drain the remaining oil.
• In the same pan, pour the sauce over the pork chops and cover. Leave on low heat until the sauce is heated.

EASY ENCHILADA CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
• In a medium bowl combine the soup, chicken, sour cream and green onions. Mix together. In another small bowl combine the salsa and green chile peppers and mix.
• Cover the bottom of the baking dish with 4 tortillas. Add 1/2 of the chicken mixture, 1/2 of the salsa mixture, and 1 1/2 cups of shredded cheese. Repeat layers. Add another layer of 4 tortillas and top with the remaining 1 cup of cheese.
• Cover and bake in the preheated oven for 55 minutes. Uncover and bake for an additional 5 minutes, until the cheese is melted on top. Let stand for 5 minutes before cutting.
