Creamy, cheesy, and oh-so-easy to make, this Chicken Enchilada soup is made even easier in the pressure cooker.  Dinner ready in less than 30 minutes? Fantastic! This is one of the easiest recipes you’ll ever make, and it’s so delicious!  Delish is one of my favorite resources, and I found this in their magazine. 

For this recipe, I used the Deluxe Multi Cooker:

Deluxe Multi Cooker

Pressure Cooker, Sous Vide Cooker, Slow Cooker, Yogurt Maker, and Sterilizer

Our pressure cooker offers so many ways to get a delicious meal on the table with minimal effort and perfect results, every time. In addition to quick cooking—fast, flavorful meals cooked up to 70% faster than other methods even from frozen—and no-fuss slow cooking so it does it thing while you’re doing yours, you can sous vide, the secret to restaurant-quality steaks, fish, and more. With sous vide, you pick the temperature, and it cooks to the exact doneness you love, every time! No more undercooked centers and overcooked outsides. After your food reaches your perfect doneness, it can stay put for up to two hours without overcooking, giving you lots of wiggle room for serving. Plus, there is a yogurt function so you can make homemade yogurt with just two ingredients and less than 5 minutes of hands-on time, and you can even sterilize bottles and utensils. All of this without ever turning on the oven!

Confident Cooking

With 16 preprogrammed settings at your fingertips, you can cook everything from meat, rice, and beans to desserts minus the guesswork. Some added features include an indicator that shows at-a-glance progress of preheating, cooking, and warming so you always know the status of what you’re making and two lid rest slots on the back so you can securely rest the lid on the Deluxe Multi Cooker instead of your counter. The steam release button is safely positioned to keep your hands away from any steam and the outside of the unit stays cool even while in use.

Hatch Green Chile Enchiladas – Mexican, Please (Video)

Imagine tender and juicy shredded chicken in a mouthwatering sauce, enveloped in a corn tortilla, then smothered in beautifully melted cheese, and you have this wonderful Enchilada recipe from Patrick over at Mexican Please. You can learn more about Patrick here.

Our friend Mike used to live in New Mexico, and it’s thanks to him that I now have an appreciation for bourbon, and a love of hatch chiles.  So much love, that I regularly order them from The Hatch Chile Store, you should definitely check them out!  In fact, you can pre-order your fresh chiles now for delivery in the summer.  I am hoping to share my roasting process with all of you then, but I digress. 

Back to this amazing recipe.  I had my chiles, but was not sure what to make with them, so I did some research and found several recipes.  This one was the best though, in part because Patrick really takes the time to go through the process in detail, and as a newbie, I needed his help.  Also, you can tell from his writing the joy he gets from his creations, and I love that. 

This time around, the directions below will use Hatch Chiles that have already been roasted.  I promise to make a video regarding the roasting process as soon as I have my next batch.  Enough said, let’s jump right in!

Ingredients

  • 1-pound chicken breast
  • ½ onion
  • Cilantro stems
  • 1 cup water

For the sauce:

  • 7-8 fresh Hatch green chiles
  • 1/2 onion
  • 1 garlic clove
  • 1 cup stock
  • 1 teaspoon Mexican oregano
  • 1/8 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt (plus more to taste)
  • freshly cracked black pepper
  • olive oil

For the enchiladas:

  • 8 corn tortillas
  • 1/2 onion
  • 1 cup shredded Jack cheese

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400⁰ F. Pour 1 cup of water into the inner pot of the Deluxe Multi Cooker or pressure cooker.  Add in 1-pound chicken breast, 1/2 onion and a small bunch of cilantro stems to steamer basket or directly to inner pot. Lock the lid and select CUSTOM (high pressure) for 10 minutes, Press Start.

When the timer is up, press CANCEL. Press STEAM-RELEASE to manually release the pressure.   Remove chicken to board, and shred. 

Press one clove garlic and chop ½ of an onion.  I have used red onion in the past, but normally I like to use sweet onions.

Add 7-8 roasted Hatch green chiles and one cup of chicken stock to the Deluxe Cooking Blender, and replace and lock lid. PULSE on speed 2 until combined.

Heat skillet over medium heat, add olive oil.  Once oil is shimmering, add half of the onion, cook for 3-5 minutes, until softened.  Add garlic, cook one minute, or until fragrant.  Add chicken stock and Hatch sauce to the skillet, give a quick stir, then add in oregano, salt and pepper. Let simmer for a few minutes until thickened. Remove from heat.

Grate 1 cup Monterey Jack Cheese – or more if you would like a snack!

Heat corn tortillas in Tortilla warmer for 30 seconds in microwave. Add some of the Hatch sauce to the coating tray, and also to the pan you will be placing the enchiladas to bake. Lightly coat each tortilla in the sauce, add ¼ cup of shredded chicken, top with onions and cheese.  Roll tightly, and place seam side down in baking pan (I’m baking in my Enameled Cast Iron Skillet). Cover with the rest of the Hatch sauce and shredded cheese. 

Bake at 400⁰ F for 10 minutes, or until cheese is melted, and the tortillas are beginning to brown. Remove from oven, and garnish with cilantro, if desired.

That’s it!  This is a wonderful dish, and this sauce is ah-mazing!!!  You can make the sauce ahead of time and freeze if you like.  The only thing I added was more onion, the original recipe calls for ½ onion, FYI.  I have also made this in the form of a casserole, and I think I love that even more, as it’s a bit faster than rolling each enchilada.  Either way, you will LOVE this dish!  Please do go over and give Patrick some love over at Mexican Please, and tell him I said hello!
