Wanted to do a CI skillet cook as has been posted here many times before. I ran across an older post from Robert
tx smoker
on Ranchero Enchiladas. I opted out of adding jalapenos as I toasted Bonnie's mouth with the serrano's when I did the jerk chicken cook a few weeks ago. I just used yellow and red peppers with onions, garlic sautéed in the pan with a little avocado oil.
Added chopped tomatoes and the spice mix Robert was nice enough to PM me, I edited a bit in blue based on what I had on hand:
1 T avacado oil
½ cup chopped white onions
2 Jalapenos seeds and stems removed and chopped - used standard red/yellow peppers
2t minced garlic
4 Roma tomatoes diced
½ t salt
1 t black pepper
1/2 t ground cumin
1 t paprika - smoked
1 t guajillo pepper - std chili pepper
½ t chipotle/morita pepper
½ t oregano (recommend Mexican) used regular
1 cup vegetable or chicken broth
Also added a packet of Sazon seasoning
As it was cooking I decided to add a can of black soy beans.
Started browning the 1.5lbs of chop meat, drained and added taco seasoning. I used a bottled version but now that Robert was nice enough to send me his recipe I will be making it soon.
layered in the first low carb tortilla, I was using a 10"CI pan. needed to cut up a second one to cover the sides. Ignore my bare feet in the pic...lol
Layered in a small amount of the Ranchero sauce on the bottom
Added the chop meat mixture and a bit of shredded Mexican blend cheese.
Threw on the next tortilla
On top of that I dropped on the rest of the Ranchero sauce, green onion, fresh cilantro, more Mexican cheese and a bunch of dabs of Queso cheese to make it a bit creamy.
Did not grill but put into a 375 oven for about 15 minutes.
Pulled it out of the CI so it did not continue cooking....OMG looking soooooo good. Plated mine with some sour cream, quac and my ghost pepper salsa.
To use Robert's description of flavor bomb is an understatement. This was wicked incredible, the second half did not make through the night when my kids came home. I am now hooked on CI skillets, so many ways to go. Thank you Robert for another great inspiration.
