I love me. I rock the house! But damn it, I forgot to make them sing the song!<\/p>\n
This morning, I picked all of the chicken off the carcass from sunday’s dinner. I cooked a little rice and mixed in with it, then sauteed up some onions. I dumped in a can each of green chiles and black olives, plus a bunch of cilantro, some chicken broth and part of the leftover chicken gravy. This I mixed with the chicken and rolled them up into tortillas. I took the rest of the gravy and thinned it down a bit with broth and once again added chiles and cilantro. Then I stirred in a scoop of sour cream and poured this over the enchilladas, topping it all with cheese.<\/p>\n
I took this down to Salamander’s house since they’re firing the Locomama (giganto train kiln) today and I knew they’d be hungry. Popped it in the oven to get hot and bubbly. I have now added +1 boyfriend and +1 girlfriend to my harem! Especially since I ALSO brought them chocolate cake! The enchilladas turned out quite great. That right there is why I will make an entire chicken when I will only eat the breast off a roast chicken. The rest of that tasty chicken makes damned tasty enchilladas!<\/p>\n
Pop fussed the first time I’d made those around him. Nooooooo, enchilladas must have RED sauce! From a can! Back man! I like my green chickeny sauce on chicken enchilladas. He agreed after he tasted them. He agreed again today since I had enough filling to make our large pan and a small one for him which he picked up this afternoon.<\/p>\n
He says “write that one down, man!” Pop alla time calls me “man” and it makes me laugh. But how can I write it down when it’s more method than measurement? How much chicken did I use? All of it. Gravy? What I had left. Cilantro? ‘Bout yay much. The only amounts I can say for certain are the things that come in cans, that’s just because I dump in the whole thing.<\/p>\n
And that’s how my food turns out best!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
