Chilaquiles Yum-oooh! 5 Cheese, Rotisserie Chicken, Black Beans & Corn Kernels, Red Enchilada Sauce, EVOO & Pipicha herb. Recipe

By Eat_Nopal
Difficulty: Easy | Total Time: 20 Minutes | Active Time: | Makes: 2 to 3 Normal Appetites (1 Tex-Mex Serving)

So Gawdy, Over the Top, Incongrous & Semi Homemade That It Could Be a Rachel Ray Creation Or Just Your Typical Southwestern Abomination

Alright just a little banter from your friendly neighborhood Mexican food snob. After opening a bottle of Trader Joe’s Enchilada Sauce and discovering your typical overly vinagered, excessively Cumined & “Taco Seasoned” canned Enchilada sauce… I reviewed my pantry and decided to mock my “mortal enemies”

INGREDIENTS
  • 6 Stale Corn Tortillas Cut using a Tic Tac Toe Board pattern
  • 1/2 Bottle of TJ's Enchilada Sauce... or really anyother crappy canned version
  • "Mexican" Blend of Shredded Cheeses
  • Shredded Leftover Rotisserie Chicken
  • Crumbled Queso Fresco
  • Roughly Grated Parmesan
  • 1/2 Cup of Canned Black Beans (Drained)
  • 1/2 Cup of Canned Corn (Drained)
  • EVOO (2 Tablespoons)
  • Pipicha Herb (to taste)
INSTRUCTIONS
  1. Sautee the Chicken, Beans & Corn & set aside.
  2. Brown the Corn Tortilla Strips in Oil
  3. Add Enchilada Sauce (pan should be hot enough to make the sauce bubble and quickly coat the Tortillas)
  4. Turn the heat down to Medium-Low
  5. Stir in the sauteed Chicken mixture
  6. Sprinkle with the melting cheese, cover & cook on stove top until the cheese melts
  7. Plate… sprinkle with Parmesan, then Fresco, then finely chopped Pipicha (or any herb of your choice)
  8. Add further Abomination to Taste (perhaps some Chorizo, Velveeta, Brown Gravy or Frenched Onions from a Can?)

  • What's wrong with Extra Virgin Olive Oil - EVOO?

  • that's TOTALLY disgusting! great entertainment, tho!!!

    i think i'll stick with Diana Kennedy's version.

  • Google it. My mouth refuses to repeat that stupid acronym.

  • Sorry, what's EVOO?

  • Regard Fuentes... suffice to say that most unsuspecting, naive Urban Mexicans coming to U.S. on vacation etc., (i.e, not poor migrants).... all seem to respond to Taco Bell, El Torito etc., in a similar way (its kind of comical actually) but people get so worked up & upset its like they think the Southern Masons got together in a smokey room to contrive ideas on how to slap Mexico in the face......+READ

    Regard Fuentes... suffice to say that most unsuspecting, naive Urban Mexicans coming to U.S. on vacation etc., (i.e, not poor migrants).... all seem to respond to Taco Bell, El Torito etc., in a similar way (its kind of comical actually) but people get so worked up & upset its like they think the Southern Masons got together in a smokey room to contrive ideas on how to slap Mexico in the face... and bring down its image to its lowest low... and came up with Taco Bell, El Torito & Tex-Mex! (Oh yeah, there is even the idea that Americans go to the border towns to buy up cheap trinkets as a way of derailing the Artisinal crafts & further cheapening the country's image).

    I guess conspiracies abound everywhere!

    I was recently going through some local Sonoma County recipe journals (books of recipes people used at home)... back in the 50's & 60's when Taco Bell, El Torito, Taco Shells & Enchilada Sauce Cans.. and seeing all the gawdy recipes that make Rachel Ray & Sandra Lee look like Etoffier.... and I realized that Americans actually did like Tex-Mex as it was... the processed glop & so forth... and it wasn't as much about Cultural Imperialism as I used to think myself.-COLLAPSE

  • Serves you right, Senor Nopales, for not making your own Taco Sauce. BTW, I cooked nopal for the first time in my life tonight and got the inspiration that, with its oozing slime, it would be great cut into mall pieces, dusted with corn grits, and fried in bacon grease like okra.

    Nopal ON Senor, I like all your posts. You may agree with one of my favorite Mexican writers, Carlos Fuentes, that...+READ

  • I think Chowhound should add the following 2 words to their list of profanity/words that are not acceptable on this site:

    1) Yum-oooh
    2) EVOO

  • Thanks Bat but I think that is covered in the "Add further Abomination to Taste" step =)

  • You forgot the canned jalapeno slices and sour cream.
