MAK Mexican

Yesterday was a happy mom day Kevin was on his way home from school for the summer. I asked last week - what do you want to eat. Mexican was the choice. I can do mexican.............

First up - green chile white enchiladas........
chicken breast seasoned up with some chili powder, adobe seasoning, salt, pepper onto the MAK, some poblano & red peppers roasting above



started some beef tacos , shaved beef, onion & garlic, chopped chipotle & adobo sauce (sauce added later)


chicken off - shredded most for the enchiladas , kept some chunks for........

MAK mole poblano
ancho, pasilla, mulatto & chipolte

A few more ingredients (not pictured – onions)

Tomatoes, tomatillos & garlic roasting

The final ingredient


The MAK griddle got a workout

Getting the peppers toasty

Peppers out, onions & garlic in , then the nuts , seeds, raisins & then the spices

Then add the torillas & bread, then the roasted tomatoes, tomatillos & garlic

Mixed up and then all inside to a stock pot, veggie broth added and simmered, chocolate added & stirred & melted (missed pics of this). I would have finished in the griddle but it wasn’t deep enough (MAKdaddy – if by any chance you look at this I need a deeper griddle for my MAK )

wait, there's more

the more.........


Enchilada filling


Made a sauce with butter, flour, chick stock, green chiles, and lots of mont jack cheese, over the enchiladas (missed pics of this & the pan of enchiladas)

Some black beans – orange & lime zest & juice, onions, garlic, red peppers, poblano pepper


Enchiladas in the oven, mole sitting happy, time for the beef tacos …..

Griddle time again –



Dinner time……..
Green chile enchilada, shaved beef taco with roasted poblano & red pepper – avocado cream, citrusy black beans over brown basmati rice & chicken chunks with mole poblano

Enjoy
