Traditional Mexican Enmoladas

in #waivio3 days ago

Today, we're diving into the heart of Mexican cuisine with a classic, home-style dish brought to you by the culinary talents of Annacook. Enmoladas are essentially enchiladas smothered in a savory mole sauce – a perfect blend of rich flavors and tender chicken wrapped in soft corn tortillas. Join us as we craft this comforting and satisfying meal, step by step.

Ingredients:

- 1/2 liter of mole sauce (store-bought or homemade)

- Corn tortillas

- 1 cooked and shredded chicken breast

- Chicken broth, as needed

- Cooking oil

- Fresh cheese (queso fresco), crumbled

- Cream (crema de leche or sour cream)

- Chopped onion, optional

- Sliced onion, optional

- Toasted sesame seeds

Instructions:

1. Begin by heating the mole sauce in a pot over medium heat. Gradually stir in chicken broth until the mole reaches a smoother consistency – it should be easily spreadable but not too thin.

2. In a separate pan, heat a bit of cooking oil over medium heat. Gently pass each tortilla through the oil for a few seconds, just enough to soften them but avoid browning. Add more oil as needed.

3. Once the tortillas are softened, dip each one into the warm mole sauce, ensuring they're completely coated.

4. Place a spoonful of the shredded chicken on each mole-covered tortilla, roll them up, and arrange them on a serving platter.

5. Garnish the enmoladas with crumbled queso fresco, a drizzle of cream, and optionally, add chopped or sliced onions and a sprinkle of toasted sesame seeds for a delightful crunch.

6. Serve hot and enjoy the richness of this traditional Mexican dish.
