Baked Aztec Chicken Casserole |
|
Serves: 4 Print this Recipe(Budín Azteca) Category: Tortilla Casseroles Makes 4 to 6 servings There are many versions of this classic layered tortilla and chicken casserole that is popular on both sides of the border. As far as I know, there's no specific Aztec origin; the title (literally, Aztec pudding) is just a fanciful name given by a cook, and it stuck. It's a pretty common dish and is also called Moctezuma Pie. Basic Cooked Tomatillo Sauce Shredded Chicken 4 poblano chiles, roasted, peeled and seeded Oil for frying the tortillas 12 (6- to 7-inch) corn tortillas 1 cup sour cream 1 1/2 cups shredded Oaxaca or Monterey Jack cheese 1. Prepare the tomatillo sauce. Reserve in the pan off heat. Prepare the shredded chicken. Reserve in a bowl. Roast, peel, and seed the chiles. Remove the stems and cut the chiles into short thin strips. Reserve in a bowl. 2. Preheat oven to 350°. In a medium skillet, heat oil to a depth of about 1/2 inch until hot. Using tongs, fry the tortillas, 1 at a time, until barely stiff but not brown, about 20 seconds. Drain on paper towels. 3. Arrange 4 tortillas, overlapping, to cover the bottom of a square 8-inch baking dish. Cover with 1/2 of the chicken, 1/2 of the chile strips, 1/3 of the sour cream, 1/3 of the sauce, and 1/3 of the cheese. Top with 4 tortillas and repeat with layers of chicken, chile strips, sour cream, sauce, and cheese. Top with the 4 remaining tortillas, remaining sour cream, sauce, and cheese. Bake until completely heated through and bubbling, about 25 minutes. Serve hot. From "1,000 Mexican Recipes." Copyright 2001 by Marge Poore.
