Kebabs N Rolls,
Mexican Dishes
First of all i would love to congratulate " Team India " for winning the ICC World Cup yesterday .I am feeling very very happy for my country.
My todays post is dedicated to Indian Cricket Team:-)))
I had not posted any Mexican dish in this blog recently so today i a posting chicken burritos which are stuffed with a mildly spiced chicken stuffing and drizzled with smoky and spicy red sauce.These burittos are very filling as they contain rice, chicken and also cheese so they can be served as a main course item.
INGREDIENTS:
For Chicken Stuffing:
- 400 grams boneless chicken 1/2" pieces
- 11/2 cup fully cooked rice
- 5 table spoon butter
- 2 tea spoon chopped garlic
- 11/2 cup milk
- 2 table spoon maida(flour)
- 5 table spoons grated cheddar cheese
- 2 table spoon chopped pickled jalapeños or 2-3 chopped green chillies
- 2 table spoons chopped fresh coriander
- salt
For Smoky Red Sauce:
- 6 ripe tomatoes
- 7-8 dry kashmiri red chillies
- 4-5 garlic cloves
- 1 tea spoon red chilli powder
- 1 seasoning maggi cube
- 3/4 tea spoon dry basil
- 3/4 tea spoon dry oregeno
- 3 table spoon tomato sauce
- salt
For Tortillas:
- 11/2 cup maida(all purpose flour)
- warm water
- 2 table spoon oil
- salt
METHOD:
First to make the tortilla dough mix maida, salt and oil together. Then add warm water and kned it into firm and elastic dough.Wrap it into wet cloth and keep aside for 30 mins.Make small balls and roll each into big and thin chapati.Heat a griddle/tawa. Cook each rolled chapati for 1 min on one side and then turn and cook for 20 secs while reducing heat till light brown specs appear.Remove from heat and repeat the same with remaining dough.
Now to make smokey red sauce take each ripe tomato and piece it with a fork and roast them on naked flame for 3-4 mins each till they get black patches.Repeat the same with the kashmiri red chillis.Let them cool now.Now chop the tomatoes without peeling their skin, this will only give the sauce the smoky flavour.Now take chopped tomatoes and roasted chillis and all the other ingredients listed under smoky red sauce in a mixie. Add water and grind it into a smooth sauce.
Now heat a pan and add 1 table spoon butter. Add the prepared sauce and give it one boil.Cook till it becomes thick for more 2-3 mins.Remove it and keep it aside.
Now finally to make the fillling heat a pan and add the remaining butter.Add chopped garlic and saute for 30 secs.Add chicken pieces and saute them till they get slightly brown on various sides.Now close the lid and let the chicken get cooked for 5-6 mins. When chicken is done add maida and stir fry it for 1 min.Add milk and cook till the sauce gets thicker.Add grated cheese and cook for more 2-3 mins.Remove it from flame.
Now to the hot chicken filling add boiled rice, chopped jalepenos and chopped corainder and salt and mix well.
Now to assemble , place 3-4 table spoon of chicken filling on a tortilla, and roll them to firm rolls.Repeat it with other tortillas.Now heat a griddle and add butter and shallow fry the burritos till light brown on all sides.
Now drizzle hot smoky red sauce on them and serve them hot.
