Green Spring Chili And French Fry Pie Recipes

GREEN CHILI CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease an 8x12 inch baking dish.
• Line the bottom of dish with green chiles. Sprinkle with 1/2 cup shredded cheese. Repeat layers twice more. In a medium bowl, whisk together milk and eggs. Season with salt and pepper. Pour egg mixture over chiles and cheese.
• Bake in preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes, or until filling is set. Let stand 5 to 10 minutes before serving.

SLOW-COOKER GREEN CHILE CHICKEN ENCHILADA PIE

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the first 7 ingredients. Cut three 30x6-inch strips of heavy-duty foil; crisscross so they resemble spokes of a wheel. Place strips on bottom and up sides of a round 4- or 5-qt. slow cooker. Coat strips with cooking spray. Spread 1/4 cup chicken mixture over bottom of slow cooker. Top with 3 tortillas, overlapping and tearing them to fit, a third of the chicken mixture and a third of the cheese. Repeat twice., Cook, covered, on low until a thermometer reads 165°, about 4 hours. To avoid scorching, rotate slow cooker insert one-half turn midway through cooking, lifting carefully with oven mitts. Turn off slow cooker; let stand, uncovered, 15 minutes before serving. Using foil strips as handles, remove pie to a platter. Cut into wedges. If desired, serve with additional cilantro, salsa, sour cream and lime wedges.

APPLE GREEN-CHILE PIE WITH CHEDDAR CRUST

Steps:

• Make the crust: In a food processor or mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, combine flour and salt. Add butter one piece at a time, while pulsing or mixing at low speed, until mixture is fine and crumbly. Transfer to a large bowl and toss well with the cheese. Add ice water one tablespoon at a time, mixing lightly with fingers just until dough holds together. To test, pinch a small amount of dough. If it is crumbly, add more ice water. Form dough into a ball, wrap loosely in plastic, then roll into a disk. Refrigerate at least one hour, or up to 3 days, before rolling. (Dough can be frozen for up to a month.)
• On a lightly floured surface, roll dough into a circle at least 11 inches in diameter. Transfer to a 9-inch pie pan, preferably glass. Turn edges under to make a thick rim; flute rim by pinching into a zigzag pattern. Refrigerate until ready to bake, at least an hour.
• Make the filling: In a large bowl, toss apples, green chilies and lemon juice together. In another bowl, mix dry ingredients and add to apples and chilies, tossing until thoroughly coated.
• Make the topping: In a small bowl, mix flour, walnuts and brown sugar. Add melted butter and toss together until crumbly.
• Bake the pie: Heat oven to 400 degrees. Using a slotted spoon, scoop filling into chilled crust, then drizzle with 2 tablespoons of juice from bottom of bowl. Sprinkle topping evenly over filling. Bake 10 minutes, then reduce heat to 375 degrees. Bake 30 to 40 minutes, or until filling bubbles at edge and crust is brown. Serve warm, with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on the side.

GREEN CHILI POT PIE

Steps:

• Dough: In a bowl mix muffin mix, salt, butter, shortening, 1 egg, vinegar, and water. Knead dough, and cut into 2 pieces. With a rolling pin, roll out each crust large enough to cover a pie pan. Place 1 crust in a pie pan and remove excess crust. Refrigerate until ready to use. Set aside remaining crust in the refrigerator.
• Filling: In a bowl mix lime juice, tequila, Greek seasoning, and chicken breasts. Let marinate in refrigerator for 2 hours.
• Preheat a grill or grill pan. Grill chicken until cooked through and juices run clear. Let cool and shred.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• In a medium saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add onions and cook until onions are soft, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and let cook for 1 minute. Remove heat; add 2 cans of cream of chicken soup, tomatoes, garlic salt, and green chiles. Stir in 1/2 cup of milk and 1 1/2 cups of cheese. Cook over medium heat for 10 minutes. Add shredded chicken and remove from the heat.
• Pour filling into pie crust, add remaining 1 cup of cheeses, and cover with the reserved top crust. Cut small slits in top crust and flute edges. Mix 1/4 cup of water with remaining 1 egg and beat well. Brush the egg mixture over the top crust.
• Bake for 30 minutes or until golden brown. Let cool 5 minutes.

GREEN CHILI FRIES

Steps:

• Peel and cut potatoes into french fry sticks.
• Either fry potatoes in oil or bake in a 400 oven for 15 to 20 minutes.
• Heat green chili in a saucepan.
• When potatoes are done place on a broil proof pan, I use a metal pie pan, pour green chili on top then sprinkle with cheese.
• Place back into a broiler for 5 minutes to melt cheese.
• Optional toppings: sour cream, onions, jalapenos, or guacamole.

SPICY CHILI FRENCH FRIES

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a large baking sheet.
• Fill a large bowl with cold water, add the potatoes, and allow to soak for 10 minutes.
• Whisk together the oil, vegetable juice cocktail, chili powder, ground cumin, onion granules, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, sugar, and salt in a large bowl. Drain the potatoes, and pat dry with paper towels. Toss the potatoes with the oil and spice mixture; stir until evenly coated. Arrange fries in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake fries in preheated oven for 20 minutes. Turn and continue to bake until browned and crispy, about 20 additional minutes.

GREEN SPRING CHILI AND FRENCH FRY PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F Arrange the fires in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet and bake, tossing halfway through, until browned, 25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. When the oil smokes, add the turkey and cook, breaking up the meat. Season with salt and pepper, the poultry seasoning and cumin; brown and crumble the meat for 3 to 4 minutes.
• Add the onion and garlic and cook for 5 more minutes.
• Add the beans and stir to heat through. Add beer and cook for about 1 minute. Stir in the salsa and simmer the chili over low heat.
• When the fries finish baking, stir the cilantro into the chili.
• Transfer the chili to a medium casserole and top with the scallions.
• Mix a teaspoon of salt with the chili powder and cayenne. Remove the fries from the oven and top with the seasoned salt. Pile the fires on top of the casserole, evenly covering the green chili and serve.
• When I made this we used extra salsa and some sour cream to garnish the dish.
