Answer 3

Here in Southern California, there is no shortage of Mexican food. Something you can find in just about any restaurant that serves Mexican food is tortilla soup, but there are tons of different recipes for it. This is one that I've found to be better than any other I've tasted. It's from a pretty good movie from about 2000, called "Tortilla Soup."

As Orlando said, "my mother's tortilla soup sure didn't taste like this."



5 garlic cloves peeled

10 Roma tomatoes, cored and quartered            

3 tablespoons olive oil

1 large yellow onion, diced

sea salt and freshly ground black pepper          

8 cups chicken stock

1 dried chipolte chili, stemmed and seeded

3/4 pound tortilla chips 1 bunch (1/2 cup) cilantro leaves

1 avocado, peeled, seeded and diced            

1/2 cup crema (available in Mexican markets

or make your own with recipe below)

2 limes cut in wedges



Place the garlic and tomatoes in blender until smooth. Heat the olive oil in a large stockpot over low heat. Add the onion, salt and pepper and cook, stirring frequently, until pale brown and caramelize, about 10 minutes. Stir in the tomato puree and cook 10 minutes longer, stirring frequently.

Pour in the chicken stock and add the chipolte chili. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook uncovered for 20 minutes. Stir in the tortilla chips and cook 10 minutes longer until the chips soften. Remove and discard the chili.

Serve hot with cilantro, avocado, crema, lime wedges and some extra crisp fried tortilla chips for adding at the table. Makes 10 servings

Crema: Whisk 2 cups heavy cream and 1/4 cup buttermilk together. Cover and set in a warm place (a gas oven with just the heat from the pilot light is fine) for 8 hours. Crema may be kept in the refrigerator for as long as a week.

Answer 6

chicken mole

1 1/4 pounds chicken breast tenders

Salt

Ground black pepper

1/2 large onion, chopped

1/2 large green bell pepper, cored, seeded, and chopped

1/2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon chili powder

1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon ground cloves

1/2 can (7 1/4 ounces) diced tomatoes

1 tablespoon unsweetened natural peanut butter

1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder

1 scallion, chopped

Instructions

Sprinkle the chicken with salt and black pepper. Heat a large nonstick skillet coated with olive oil cooking spray over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for 8 minutes, turning once, or until browned on both sides. Remove the chicken to a large plate.

Add the onion, bell pepper, and garlic to the skillet and cook for 3 minutes, or until the onion becomes translucent. Stir in the chili powder, cinnamon, and cloves and cook for 1 minute. Return the chicken to the skillet. Add the tomatoes (with juice), peanut butter, and cocoa powder and bring to a boil. Cover and simmer, stirring every few minutes, for 25 minutes, turning once, or until the chicken is no longer pink. Garnish with the scallions.

Answer 8

last night i made a mexican fiesta for my family and friends...

Spinach enchiladas

Mexican Rice

Refried Beans

pulled pork casadias

The food was great and everyone loved it...

I would recomend making mexican rice.. That was a big hit at the party for me.. the spinach enchiladas were also good but time consuming...

2 tablespoons lard

1/2 cup ground pork

1/4 pound chorizo, halved lengthwise and cut into 1/4-inch pieces

1/2 cup chopped white onions

1/4 cup chopped green bell peppers

2 teaspoons minced garlic

2 cups long grain rice

1 large tomato, peeled, seeded and chopped

4 cups chicken stock, or water

3/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon saffron

1 teaspoon chopped fresh oregano leaves

1 teaspoon chopped fresh cilantro leaves

1/4 cup chopped green onions

In a medium, heavy saucepan, heat the lard over medium-high heat. Add the pork and cook, stirring until no longer pink. Add the sausages and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the onions and bell peppers, and cook, stirring, until soft, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Add the rice and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the tomatoes and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the stock, salt, and saffron, and stir well. Bring to a boil. Lower the heat to low, cover, and cook undisturbed until all the liquid is absorbed, about 20 minutes.

Remove from the heat and let sit, covered, for 10 minutes. Uncover and fluff the rice with a fork. Add the oregano and cilantro, and stir to incorporate.

Turn into a decorative bowl and garnish with the green onions. Serve immediately.

Answer 9

If it's for class don't make anything elaborate....make it easy!!!

Make some refried beans and grilled chicken strips (you can buy these to make it easier) with shredded cheese.

From those 3 SIMPLE ingredients make burritos....you can't go wrong. You can take some sour cream and limes as well for those who want to add it in.

Answer 10

try nopalitos ( thats a specific kind of cactus)
