Time 1h25m

Yield 6 main course servings

Number Of Ingredients 30

Vegetable oil for frying
6 white corn tortillas
Kosher salt for sprinkling
3 cups cooked shredded chicken
1/3 cup freshly squeezed lime juice
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup chopped fresh coriander (cilantro)r
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Refried Beans, warm, recipe follows
3 ounces Monterey Jack cheese, shredded (about 1/2 cup)
1/2 head iceberg lettuce, cored and shredded
1 Hass avocado, thinly sliced or Guacamole, recipe follows
2 cups Salsa Cruda, recipe follows
1/2 cup sour cream
1 scallion, thinly sliced
12 fresh coriander (cilantro) leaves
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 medium Spanish onion, finely chopped
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon ground cumin
4 cloves garlic, minced
One 15.5-ounce can pinto beans (with liquid), mashed
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
2 ripe tomatoes or 4 plum tomatoes, cored and roughly chopped
1/4 medium onion, finely chopped (about 3 tablespoons)
1/4 jalapeno, seeded and minced
2 tablespoons chopped fresh coriander (cilantro)
1 teaspoon kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • To make the tortillas: Pour the oil for frying into a large heavy-bottomed pot to a depth of about 2 inches. Place over medium heat and heat to 375 degrees F. Add the tortillas, one at a time, and fry until golden brown and crispy, about 1 1/2 minutes. Using tongs, transfer to a paper towel-lined pan and sprinkle with salt. Set aside.
  • To make the chicken: In a small bowl, mix together the chicken, lime juice, oil, coriander, and salt and season with pepper to taste. Cover with plastic wrap and set aside.
  • To assemble the tostadas: Preheat the broiler. Spread the beans evenly over one side of each tortilla and sprinkle with some of the cheese. Transfer to a baking sheet and broil until the cheese is lightly browned and melted, about 30 seconds. Divide the tortillas among 6 plates.
  • Evenly mound the chicken on each tortilla and top with the lettuce. Top each tostada with avocado, salsa, and a dollop of sour cream. Sprinkle with the scallion and garnish the tostada with the coriander leaves. Serve immediately.
  • Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion, coriander, and cumin and cook, stirring, until lightly browned, about 2 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, until lightly browned, about 1 minute more. Add the beans and cook, stirring frequently, until thick and amber brown in color, about 4 minutes. Stir in the salt and season with pepper to taste.
  • In a small bowl, mix together the tomatoes, onion, jalapeno, coriander, salt, and season with pepper to taste. Cover with plastic wrap and set aside.

CUMIN-CRUSTED CHICKEN THIGHS WITH GRILLED TOMATILLO SALSA



Cumin-Crusted Chicken Thighs with Grilled Tomatillo Salsa image

Categories     Chicken     Poultry     Marinate     Backyard BBQ     Dinner     Spice     Summer     Grill     Grill/Barbecue     Cumin     Advance Prep Required     Sugar Conscious     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     Soy Free

Yield Serves 4-8

Number Of Ingredients 10

8 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
1/4 cup (2 fl oz/60 ml) canola oil
1/4 cup (1 oz/30 g) Cumin Crust Rub
For the Tomatillo Salsa
7 large tomatillos, papery husks removed, and cut in half
1 jalapeño chile, halved lengthwise and seeded
1/4 cup (2 fl oz/60 ml) fresh lime juice
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 cup (3/4 oz/20 g) chopped fresh cilantro
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • 1. In a large bowl, combine the chicken thighs and oil. Toss to coat the thighs evenly. Transfer the thighs to a platter and sprinkle evenly on all sides with the cumin rub. Set aside at room temperature.
  • 2. Prepare a charcoal or gas grill for indirect grilling over medium heat; the temperature inside the grill should be 350°-375°F (180°-190°C). If using charcoal, bank the lit coals on either side of the grill bed, leaving a strip in the center without heat, and place a drip pan in the center. If using gas, preheat the burners, then turn off 1 or more of the burners to create a cooler zone. Brush and oil the grill grate.
  • 3. To make the salsa, place the tomatillos and chile over the direct-heat area of the grill. (You'll probably need a grill screen for the chile or you'll lose it through the grate.) Cook, turning as needed, until well charred on all sides, about 3 minutes. Transfer the tomatillos and chile to a blender, add the lime juice and oil, and pulse until combined but still chunky. Transfer to a bowl, fold in the cilantro, and season with salt. You should have about 2 cups (16 fl oz/500 ml). (The salsa can be made up to 1 week in advance and refrigerated. Bring to room temperature before serving.)
  • 4. Place the thighs, meaty side down, over the indirect-heat area of the grill. Cook, turning once, until the thighs are nicely grill-marked on both sides and firm to the touch and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh away from bone registers 170°F (77°C), 10-15 minutes on each side.
  • 5. Transfer the thighs to a platter and let rest for 10 minutes. Serve at once with the tomatillo salsa.

GRILLED-CHICKEN TOSTADAS WITH TOMATILLO-CILANTRO SALSA



Grilled-Chicken Tostadas with Tomatillo-Cilantro Salsa image

In this Mexican-styled recipe, blistered tomatillos meet fresh cilantro in a spicy, earthy salsa that ties together the other flavors in these crispy tostadas: smoky grilled chicken and creamy mashed beans spiced with chipotle in adobo, coriander, and cinnamon.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Chicken     Chicken Thighs

Time 1h30m

Yield Makes 10 to 12

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 tablespoon safflower oil
1/2 medium white onion, finely chopped (1 cup)
1 teaspoon coriander seeds
2 teaspoons minced chipotle in adobo (with sauce)
Kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 can (15.5 ounces) red kidney beans, undrained
1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth
12 ounces tomatillos, husked, rinsed, and dried
1/2 medium white onion, cut into 4 wedges
3 cloves garlic, peeled
2 jalapenos, stems removed
1 bunch cilantro
1/4 cup low-sodium chicken broth
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice, plus wedges for serving
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs
1 tablespoon safflower oil
Tostada shells, sliced avocado, Mexican crema or sour cream, and shredded red or green cabbage, for serving

Steps:

  • Smashed Kidney Beans: Heat oil in a saucepan over medium-high. Add onion; cook until translucent, about 4 minutes. Add coriander, chipotle in adobo, and 1/2 teaspoon salt; cook 30 seconds more. Add cinnamon, beans with liquid, and broth; bring to a boil and cook, stirring occasionally, until reduced and thickened slightly, about 5 minutes more. Remove from heat.
  • Smash beans with a fork or potato masher until creamy and spreadable, leaving some intact. Let cool until warm but no longer hot before serving (if beans are too hot, tostada shells will become soft), or refrigerate in an airtight container up to 5 days (return to room temperature before serving). (Makes 2 1/4 cups.)
  • Tostadas: Heat a large skillet (preferably cast iron) over high. Add tomatillos, onion, garlic, and jalapenos in a single layer and cook, turning a few times, until blistered in places, about 5 minutes. Let cool slightly, then transfer to a blender with 1 cup packed cilantro leaves and stems, broth, lime juice, and 3/4 teaspoon salt. Puree until smooth.
  • Season chicken with salt and pepper. Return skillet to medium-high heat; swirl in oil. Add chicken in a single layer and cook, flipping once, until golden brown in places but not cooked through, about 3 minutes. Add 2 cups salsa (reserve the rest); reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, turning chicken a few times, until just cooked through and salsa has thickened and darkened slightly, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from heat; let cool 10 minutes. Using 2 forks, shred chicken in skillet into bite-size pieces, tossing to evenly coat.
  • Spread 2 tablespoons smashed beans onto each tostada shell. Top with shredded-chicken mixture, avocado, crema, cabbage, remaining salsa, and more cilantro; serve with lime wedges.
