Southwest Scotch Egg Rellenos Recipes

SOUTHWEST SCOTCH EGG RELLENOS

Steps:

• Boil 6 eggs for 12 minutes, remove from heat for 5 minutes, drain and cool before peeling.
• While eggs are boiling, drain and pat green chiles dry with paper towel-set aside. Combine cream cheese with ½ cup cheddar cheese, set aside. Set 3 medium bowls in order-1 bowl-flour,chile powder, salt, pepper, 1 bowl-1 egg beaten, 1 bowl-panko bread crumbs. In large bowl combine sausage, 1 egg beaten, and 1/4 cup panko bread crumbs. Use a rolling pin to roll out sausage in between a folded over parchment paper until 1/8" thin, gently peel back top parchment. Use sharp knife to cut into 6 pieces.
• Stuff green chiles with 1/6 of cream cheese mixture-about 2 tablespoons-set aside. Peel eggs and pat dry, or pat dry packaged eggs. Roll eggs in flour; insert 1 into each green chile. Wrap each green chile in sausage, pressing firmly. Roll stuffed green chile in flour, dip into egg, then roll in panko bread crumbs, pressing firmly. Roll each green chile in remaining grated cheddar, pressing cheese to stick. Lightly coat with cooking spray on all sides.
• Suggested Cooking method-air fryer oven 350 degrees for 25 minutes-turning gently after 15 minutes. Can be baked in oven at 400 degrees for 25 minutes, turning gently after 15 minutes.
• Gently cut in half lengthwise with serrated knife, sprinkle with mild red chile powder, and serve with guacamole, salsa, and sour cream for a delicious and nutritious egg fiesta!
• Can be reheated in air fryer at 350 degrees for 15 minutes or oven at 400 degrees for 15 minutes-microwave reheating not recommended.
• The Southwest region of the United States is best known for the spicy influence from south of the border. A regional favorite is Hatch green chiles from Hatch, NM, which most of us use in every meal-including in eggs any time of day you need a nutritional boost. The annual Hatch Chile Festival is the time for Tucson foodies to stock up on fresh Hatch green chiles-they add a mild kick to any egg dish from their bright and spicy flavor profile. Every year in Tucson there are giant industrial chile roasters filling the air with a spicy, pungent aroma unique to the char-roasted green chile. With all of this careful attention to detail, I use the highest quality ingredients to really showcase my favorite regional delight has resulted-a highly nutritious spicy, creamy, hearty, and crunchy Southwest Scotch Egg Rellenos-Enjoy This Unique Egg Creation!

SOUTHWESTERN EGG ROLLS

Steps:

• For the sauce: Combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, vinegar, granulated garlic, onion powder, avocado, 2 tablespoons water, a large pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper in a blender. Blend until completely smooth. Transfer to a medium bowl and stir in the dill and parsley. Season with additional salt and pepper if needed. The texture should be similar to ranch salad dressing. (If the sauce is very thick, thin it out with 1 to 2 tablespoons of additional water.) Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to serve.
• For the egg rolls: Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat for 5 minutes. Rub the chicken breasts with 1 tablespoon oil and sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Cook the chicken until deep grill marks appear, about 8 minutes. Flip and continue cooking until deep grill marks appear and the internal temperature on an instant-read thermometer in the thickest part of the breast registers 165 degrees F, about 8 minutes more. Remove to a cutting board, allow to cool slightly and cut into small pieces.
• Heat the remaining tablespoon oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the bell pepper, a pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper and cook, stirring, until crisp-tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the beans, corn, spinach, cumin, chipotle powder, cayenne, 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Cook, stirring, until the vegetables and beans are coated in the spices and warmed through, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl and fold in the chicken, pickled jalapenos, parsley and scallions. Taste and season with additional salt and pepper if needed. Allow the mixture to cool completely.
• Stack the tortillas on a large microwave-safe plate and cover with a damp paper towel. Microwave until just warmed though. (This will make the tortillas easier to roll.) Put a warm tortilla on a clean, flat surface (keep the remaining tortillas covered with the damp paper towels) and put 1/2 cup of the filling in the center. Spread the filling out into a 4 1/2-inch long log. Tightly fold the bottom of the tortilla (the part that is closest to you) over the filling, fold both ends over then roll the tortilla so that the filling is completely enclosed. Seal the seam of the tortilla with 3 toothpicks. Transfer to a baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining tortillas, filling and toothpicks.
• Meanwhile, attach a deep-fat fry thermometer to the side of a large Dutch oven or pot, fill halfway with oil and heat over medium-high heat to 350 degrees F.
• Fry the egg rolls in 2 batches until golden brown all over, about 5 minutes per batch. Remove the toothpicks from the egg rolls, cut on an extreme bias and transfer to a large platter. Serve with the avocado dipping sauce.
