Betty's Chicken Enchiladas with Salsa Verde

[Gpacharlie]

Hey Deutschesland, Please add a recipe for Jagerschnitzel mit pommes frittes and mushroom sauce. Bitte auch excuse my spelling as I am an old cold war vet and need my Hunters Schnitzel WITH MUSHROOM SAUCE. I am making Enchiladas tonight Betty and this will be the first time I am making them crunchy. Yummmmmmmm

[jacklynjackman]

There is no wrong way to make enchiladas. I like this recipe :)

[MartinN128]

I don't mean to be rude, but those arent "Enchiladas" they actually look like tacos, something more like flautas. One tip: Corn Tortillas are the BEST for enchiladas, and enchiladas were never meant to be baked. Tortillas just warmed/lightly fried smothered in the sauce, rolled with crumbly cheese/onions & top with same thing but different sauce. My mom makes traditional enchiladas and they are simple and delicious, but NOT with flour tortillas. At first I thought you were making burritos, LOL!

[ahsookie1]

Thanks for this recipe! Im going to use my crockpot...what liquid do you use? and how much?

[bettyskitchen]

@ahsookie1 I would add about 1/4 cup water in the bottom and then stack everything else on top of that. With the lid on it will stay nice and moist.

thank you so much for the upload, i am having a huge party in a few days and this will be a #1 hit. good ideas for social gatherings and parties! this beats indian food anyday. me and my dad are indian from india. but we hate indian food, we all prefer mexican food. i love enchiladas with both cheese and beef!

[codyalaniz88]

I made these last night, they were a HUGE hit. This is coming from someone who only has basic cooking skills, you made it so easy and it was actually fun! My mom and everyone else loved them. Thanks Betty!

[angie022587]

I was watching this at 12am n what a torture it was ! I am now starving this enchiladas they look yummy but too bad they r not in my tummy :(

[bettyskitchen]

@angie022587 Oh, sorry! I hope you get to try them! Thanks for your sweet comment!

--Betty :)

[lizalvarez05]

flautas!!



[bettyskitchen]

@lizalvarez05 Close--I think flautas are generally deep-fried.

--Betty :)

[HamburgPred]

You must be the best mom/wife ever! I really appreciate the cooking content you put up here on youtube. It gives me a good insight on the american side of cooking, but there is one thing I ask myself: Here in Germany it is more or less frowned upon using ready made stuff from a store (i.E salsa in a glass) when cooking. Especially since the salsa makes up a large part of the taste when cooking enchiladas. So why not make make your own salsa and therefore your own taste? Have a nice day!

[bettyskitchen]

@HamburgPred Most of the people who watch bettyskitchen request quick and easy and convenient meals. In a recipe like this, if you don't want to use bottled salsa, just go to my salsa recipe and make that before beginning the recipe. There is no need for me to go over the recipe twice, since you can look up just about any pre-made sauce in bettyskitchen. Thanks for you comment!

--Betty :)

[HamburgPred]

@bettyskitchen I'm sorry my comment was quite unthoughtful. You are absolutely right with your reply and I apologize for such arrogance. I actually made your chicken enchilladas for my girlfriend yesterday and both of us were absolutely delighted. This will be one of my new favorite recipes. Thank you very much again and have a nice week.

[bettyskitchen]

@HamburgPred No need to apologize. Thanks for your sweet comment on the chicken enchiladas! I am so happy that you and your girlfriend enjoyed them. I hope you have a wonderful week!

Love from Kentucky,

--Betty :)

[chinita7788]

Betty you are an awesome help! thank you

[bettyskitchen]

@chinita7788 Thanks for your sweet comment! I really appreciate it!

--Betty :)

[jenny92504]

if i would prefer to use red sauce instead of green sauce do i still have to put it the green chiles in the chicken? or it doesnt matter

[bettyskitchen]

@jenny92504 You may omit them or use them; it will be "hotter" if you keep the green chiles as well as the red sauce.

--Betty :)

[FamilyFromNapa]

This is my favorite enchilada recipe! I've made it several times.

[bettyskitchen]

@FamilyFromNapa Thanks for your wonderful feedback! I really appreciate it!

--Betty :)

[Celie3678]

I'd give my left arm to be Betty's next-door-neighbor. HEE HEE.

[Celie3678]

Betty! You are a precious Angel. Let me tell you that "You have taught me how to cook". We love you Darlin. -from Houston, TX.

[toddcalling]

Betty, just wanted to let you know that I made these last night for my sister's family and the recipe knocked their socks off! Thanks so much! Todd (from Bella :)

[bettyskitchen]

@toddcalling Hi Todd! Thanks for your great feedback on the chicken enchiladas! I really appreciate it!

--Betty :)

[supersass2010]

This is a different take on chicken enchiladas. They look delicious. I myself use corn tortillas & quickly saute them in hot oil before I fill them & roll them. I use either cheese or chicken 4 filling. Than the green chili, cheese and goodies. But,1 idea, from the way u made yr enchiladas is similar to the way I make burritos. They can be chicken, ground beef, etc burritos, I fill the tortilla, roll "em, & add home made salsa & cilantro in burrito. Filling 4 burritos a different way though.

[vgfigue]

I have an idea. Us Mexicans don't use flour tortillas for enchiladas. You can try corn tortillas. Yellow or white. They are both the same. Just for a little bit of a different taste :) Just a thought

[bettyskitchen]

@vgfigue I have a couple of enchilada recipes in bettyskitchen that use corn tortillas. I did this dish with flour tortillas, just to change things up a bit. I should have pointed out that these are not traditional!

--Betty :)

[vgfigue]

I think i've told you before that I am from New Mexico and you did very well. I want to try this recipe. You're awesome Betty. I like that you're not afraid to try anything!

[sarek363]

Dear Betty: I've watched tons of your videos and have written down so many of your recipes. This is the first one I made, and I made it tonight. I'm vegetarian, so I used vegetarian chicken in place of the real deal. My boyfriend LOVED this, and so did I! Thanks for taking so much time to do these videos. We really appreciate them. I can't wait to try many of your other recipes. I'd watch your videos over the Food Network any day. Your creativity is really inspiring.

[petitecutie15]

Do you know how to make ranchero sauce betty?

[petitecutie15]

WHat do you season the chicken with

[bettyskitchen]

@petitecutie15 I salted the chicken breasts when I put them in the crock pot--that's all.

--Betty :)

[NatalieTheRat]

Hiii betty! Have you ever thought of using corn tortillas? This is how I was taught and its absolutely delicious!!!!

[bettyskitchen]

@NatalieTheRat I have a couple of other videos of enchiladas in bettyskitchen that use corn tortillas. They're great--I was just trying to show another possibility here for anyone had only done them with corn tortillas. It is a very good twist on the corn tortilla variety. Thanks for commenting!

--Betty :)

[ohpineapples]

Betty, do you know how to make a good Irish Soda Bread? If so, could you pretty please make one some day? Thanks! Hugs!

[bettyskitchen]

@ohpineapples I'm not familiar with Irish soda bread. I will check it out.

--Betty :)

[ohpineapples]

@bettyskitchen They say it's the easiest bread to make.I think there's two types of flour,baking soad, a small amount oats (like from oatmeal)&buttermilk.I heard you mix it all together and rolled it with your hands like 5 times only&shape it like a round small loaf of bread&put it in the oven& bake for (i think ..like 25 minutes).There's no rising time at all.I've heard it's the easiet bread to ever make&it only takes a few ingrediants. You probably have everything but the buttermilk Thanks!

[markiemarkstyle]

Betty, I made this today, it turned out great!!!

[bettyskitchen]

@markiemarkstyle Thanks for the great feedback! I really appreciate it!

--Betty  :)

[avastacia]

omg betty, it there anything you can't cook?! lol, just messin' with you... *^_^*

but anyways, do you know how to make chicken and dumplings?

[ohpineapples]

OH that looks so good! I'm not a big fan of the red enchilada sauce so this will be perfect for me ;) I can't wait to make that. One way I get a cooked chicken is I will buy one from the store already cooked - you know the rotisserie ones and to me they don't really cost that much...and the work is alredy done (smiles!) all I have to do it pull the chicken off it ; ) Thanks Betty!

[bettyskitchen]

@ohpineapples I meant to mention rotisserie chicken in my video, but forgot to. Thanks for sharing that idea!

--Betty :)

[ohpineapples]

@bettyskitchen I luv buying rotisserie chickens when I don't have the time after work to cook a chicken.Plus the flavor from the rotisserie chicken is SO good.You get that great dark meat chicken which is so moist.The white meat is good too, but that dark meat blends so well b/c it's so moist,tender&tasty.Best part a ready made rotisserie chicken is like $5.00&all the work is done&ready.I use them all the time even 4 tacos.Do U have a rotisserie cooker?If so,mabye U could do a dish that way.

[boricuagirl]

Thank you! I will omit the cilantro as I hate the taste, but i might make it tomorrow. Any plans to visit the US Virgin Islands?

[cozzyk]

Looks delish as always Betty.

[ibert405]

Betty FOREVER

[Treza143]

Omg theses look so incredibly good! I can't wait to try them! Another A++ for Betty's Kitchen!

[YouAreMyDreamLove]

Hello Betty! I Love all your videos. I'm Mexican, so I can recommend, use corn tortilla instead flour tortillas. Flour tortillas are best for burritos and quesadillas.

Corn tortillas taste best with the Salsa verde.

The way you did the enchiladas, is like we call Flautas here in Mexico. The enchiladas are a little bit diferent.

If you want I can send you some Mexican Food Recipes!!!

This Enchiladas look soooo good even!! I´m hungry!

[Treza143]

@YouAreMyDreamLove mmm I know id Love some more great mexican food recipes! Mexican food is my favorite!

[SunSetbutterfly508]

That looks scrumptious......yum yum.

[tonellatom]

this looks so yummy! love love love watching your videos!

[MrRallz]

I wanted you to taste it :) Great video, Betty! I love this channel!

[angelwings500]

Beautiful dish it looks so good. Thank you for sharing

[daprincess8282]

mmmm....why must i always watch ur vids when i'm hungry

[bettyskitchen]

@JennyMa36 Just omit it. Shredded cheddar cheese would taste good in its place.

--Betty :)

[SinnFein4ever]

@bettyskitchen

My mother will love this!

She's been so stressed over figuring her tax returns lately.

I think that I'll make this for her as a surprize for dinner tomorrow.

(although I'll have to pick up some salsa and a cilantro plant at the farmer's market tomorrow.)

By the way, will you be making any halloween rescipees soon?

[bettyskitchen]

@SinnFein4ever I may do some pumpkin bread, cupcakes, and popcorn balls. I have already done pumpkin pie, pumpkin muffins, toasted pumpkin seeds, and Halloween cookies--those were posted last year at Halloween.

--Betty :)

[SinnFein4ever]

@bettyskitchen

Thanks!

What do you think about pumpkin cheesecake?

[bettyskitchen]

@SinnFein4ever I like it! That would be good for Halloween/Thanksgiving!

--Betty  :)

[SinnFein4ever]

@bettyskitchen

Thanks!

As for me, I'm thinking of making a graveyard cake again this year.

I bake two large rectangular devils'food cakes, and put some strawberry or rasberry jam on top of one, and then some gummy worms, then place the other cake on top.

Then I cover the entire thing with dark chocolate frosting, then use some milano-like cookies for the tombstones. Then I dip some twigs in wax for the forest, then last, I put a scary-looking little toy figurine in the "graveyard".

[SinnFein4ever]

@bettyskitchen

Does that mean that you'll make one for us?

[GTVEVEMAN]

Very Creative Betty thanks for sharing with us

[JimboJitsu]

looks goooooood!  For some reason gives me the idea for using pulled pork... Great video thanks for sharing!

[bettyskitchen]

@JimboJitsu Thanks, Jimbo! I'm getting behind on my comments, but I hope you know that I appreciate all of your kind words! You are a great friend. Yes, I think you could make an interesting dish with pulled pork and salsa verde!

--Betty  :)

[JimboJitsu]

@bettyskitchen You are welcome for the well deserved kind words! I like this dish idea for catering menu as it would fit in 2" hotel pans easily and any BBQ meat could probably be used, looks great as I am sure it tastes! I am always trying to think of ways to utilize BBQ meats... Have a great day!

[bettyskitchen]

@MrsMSG79 prettyinpun666 has a good answer. I wait until the end, because I like the enchiladas crisp--not soggy at all. You can bake it with the sauce on, but it will not be as crisp.

--Betty :)

[yeesha]

Congratulations for your year ^_^

[JayJayhope]

Looks wonderful, Betty!

[prettyinpunk666]

Oh yum! We have leftover turkey in the fridge, so i think I'll try this with that.

[prettyinpunk666]

@MrsMSG79 That's how I usually make them, but with tomato sauce. I'd put the sauce on near the end of the time in the oven, if you like to soften up the crispiness but not have them go really soggy.

[barbielovesmac100]

Betty I have a question. When you put your chicken in the crock pot I'd you add any liquid? Also did you cook in on low or high for 8 hours? Thanks!

[bettyskitchen]

@barbielovesmac100 I salted the chicken breasts, but I did not add any liquid. I cooked it on high, and it probably could have been considered "done" maybe after 6 or 7 hours, but the 8 hours made it very tender.

--Betty :)

[lynnsrecipes]

That looks so good. Can't wait to try it!

[sweetcharade518]

Looks delicious!

[xlirseify]

This looks to die for!

[shydog555]

Looks great! :)

[TheVittleVlog]

Hard to beat this recipe...very nice!!!

[sam52877]

Hi Betty! I can't tell you how many times i have picked up salsa verde in the store, only to put it back. Can you explain the taste to me...know that isn't easy to do...just wondering. Thanks! Sally :)

[HALLSYSKITCHEN]

looks good...wish ya could e mail me some..ha ha ..thumbs up

[jb092306]

what can you substitute for cilantro. I've heard you either love cilantro or hate it. And I'm one of those who absolutely do not like the taste of it. I think I may even be allergic. If I get something at a resterant with cilantro on it it ruins the entire meal for me. I'm not picky, but this is one thing I won't eat. I just wondered if you had any suggestions for another flavor. Love your videos! You feel like one of my best friends~

[bettyskitchen]

@jb092306 You can use fresh parsley in place of the cilantro. The flavor isn't as powerful, but it is a nice delicate flavor that most people would like.

--Betty :)

[NancyToday]

I love your opening music and of course, your great accent! Hugs.

[mariescc]

This looks really yummy. When I make green chile enchiladas I add cream of chicken soup with the sour cream so it is a little more creamy and not so dry.

[GreeneSites]

I just found Betty's video's on line. Where have I been? She is great. Love this recipe. Tried it last night and the family is insisting on it again tonight. I'll hold off on that request and pick another one of Betty's for tonight. There too many to pick from. Thanks Betty!

[bigcouz52]

yes... im making this today....lov u with the ledft over turket i roasted

[ellenlovestamping]

Looks Yummie! too bad we can't get those ingredients here in the Netherlands,well atleast some of them. But I like you're video's anyways!
