Stacked Chicken Enchiladas w/Salsa Verde & Habanero Pickled Red Onions
MMMMMMM!!! I likey the spicy!! I adapted this recipe from Bon Appétit. I have been wanting to make this for almost three years now, I just never got around to it, so I decided let's do it!! This was such an amazing flavorful, spicy (but not too spicy dish. You could take a lot of short cuts with this one if needed, you could buy a rotisserie chicken. ( 2c of shredded chicken is about 1/2 the chicken). You could shred and freeze the other for later. You could also use a jarred salsa verde to save some time as well. The pickled onions, were nice!! If you don't like things as spicy you could substitute the habanero for a serrano or even jalapeno. The only adjustments I made were: on the salsa I added an extra jalapeno, and a little extra cumin and I added the juice of one lime. I also made it the day before so the flavors could marry. On the enchiladas, I just added an extra roasted poblano. What?? I can't help it!!! I like hot peppers!! LOL! :) I hope y'all enjoy!!
