CANCUN CHICKEN



Cancun Chicken image

Great summer recipe with grilled vegetables and even some grilled pineapple even if the main dish is on the stove top! This calls for ground cloves but I think I would like ginger a little better. Use your idea to flavor the meat! I used canned pineapple in place of the fresh. I got this recipe from a cookbook called "Favorite Brand Name Cookbook".

YUCATáN CHICKEN WITH ACHIOTE



Yucatán Chicken with Achiote image

Categories     Chicken     Side     Marinate     Kosher

Yield makes 8 tacos

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1/2 cup fresh orange juice
2 teaspoons dried Mexican oregano, toasted and ground
16 cloves garlic, dry-roasted (page 158)
1 or 2 habanero chiles, dry-roasted (page 154), stemmed, and seeded (use more chiles and/or leave seeds if want more heat)
2 teaspoons achiote paste (page 149)
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
1 tablespoon lemon-infused olive oil (page 162)
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
Lime or orange wedges
8 (5 1/2-inch) soft white corn tortillas (page 13), for serving
Garnish: Pickled red onions or orange or pineapple segments

Steps:

  • Cut the chicken into 1/2-inch-wide strips. In a large bowl, mix together the orange juice, oregano, garlic, chile, achiote paste, salt, pepper, allspice, and olive oil to make the marinade. Add the chicken strips to the mixture and let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
  • To cook the chicken, remove the strips from the marinade and drain off any excess liquid. In a large, heavy skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Sauté the chicken strips, turning once or twice, until thoroughly cooked (cut one to test), about 9 minutes total.
  • Remove from the heat, squeeze fresh lime juice over the strips, and serve immediately or keep warm in the pan until ready to serve.
  • To serve, lay the tortillas side by side, open face and overlapping on a platter. Divide the filling equally between the tortillas and top with salsa and pickled onions. Grab, fold, and eat right away. Or build your own taco: lay a tortilla, open face, in one hand. Spoon on some filling, top with salsa and pickled onions, fold, and eat right away.

CHICKEN CHIMICHANGAS



Chicken Chimichangas image

Tortillas filled with a chicken, rice, beans and olive mixture - rolled, fried and topped with a piquant avocado mix, sour cream and cheese, all served on a bed of lettuce. Being raised 12 miles from the border of Mexico, I was brought up on Mexican food and learned how to make many of the dishes.

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     Latin American     Mexican

Time 45m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 ½ cups chicken broth
1 cup uncooked long-grain rice
½ cup red enchilada sauce
1 ½ onion, diced, divided
6 (12 inch) flour tortillas
4 cups diced cooked chicken breast, divided
1 pound Monterey Jack cheese, shredded, divided
1 (6 ounce) can sliced black olives
4 cups refried beans, divided
¼ cup vegetable oil
3 avocados, peeled and pitted
½ cup finely chopped cilantro
2 tablespoons lemon juice
3 green onions, diced
¼ cup finely chopped jalapeno chile peppers
1 tomato, diced
2 cups shredded lettuce
1 cup sour cream
2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan combine the broth, rice, sauce, and 1 diced onion. Mix and bring to a boil; reduce heat to low and let simmer for about 20 minutes, or until rice is tender.
  • Meanwhile, heat tortillas in a large skillet (so that they are soft enough to fold).
  • When rice mixture is ready, spoon equal amounts of the following onto each tortilla: Chicken, shredded Jack cheese, diced onion, olives, rice mixture and beans. Roll tortillas, tucking in sides to prevent filling from spilling over.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet and fry the filled tortillas, turning, until browned on all sides. Drain on paper towels.
  • To Serve: In a medium bowl combine the avocados, cilantro, lemon juice, green onions, chile peppers and tomatoes. Mash together. Place shredded lettuce on a platter, topped with chimichangas, avocado mix, sour cream and shredded Cheddar cheese.
