Simple Chilaquiles
chilaquiles noun
chi·la·qui·les | ˌchē-lä-ˈkē-lās
A Mexican dish of fried corn tortilla pieces simmered with salsa or mole and typically topped with cheese and other accompaniments (such as sliced onions, shredded chicken, and fried or scrambled eggs)
It is said to be a peasant dish. Well, we are simple folk . . . sounded right up our alley!
- 3 TBS light olive oil
- 3 TBS flour (whole wheat works well, as does a gluten free flour blend)
- 1 TBS ground mild chili powder (North American style)
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp dried oregano, rubbed
- 1/4 tsp salt
- pinch ground cinnamon
- 2 TBS tomato puree (tomato paste)
- 480ml hot vegetable stock (2 cups)
- 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
- freshly ground black pepper to taste
- Whisk together the dry ingredients until well combined. Heat the olive oil in a saucepan. Whisk in the dry ingredients. Cook, stirring, for several minutes, until quite fragrant and deep in colour. Whisk in the tomato puree and then slowly whisk in the vegetable stock. Bring to the boil, whisking constantly. Reduce to low and simmer for about 7 or 8 minutes, whisking occasionally. Whisk in the vinegar. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
- about 30 lightly salted tortilla chips
- 120g tomato salsa (3/4 cup)
- 185g red enchilada sauce (3/4 cup)
- 2 cooked chicken breasts, shredded
- 120g grated cheese ( cheddar or Jack, 1 cup)
- finely sliced spring onions
- Preheat the oven to 180*C/350*F/ gas mark 4. Butter a 9 inch pie tin or an 9 inch square casserole dish.
- Measure the enchilada sauce and salsa into a small saucepan and heat through. Roughly crumble the tortilla chips into the prepared baking dish. Pour half of the sauce mixture over top. Scatter the shredded chicken over this. Pour the remaining sauce over top. Sprinkle with the cheese. Cover tightly with a sheet of aluminium foil. Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. Uncover and bake for 5 minutes or so longer.
- Serve hot with some spring onions scattered over the top.
