    As a first gen Mexican American, I can tell you this is EXACTLY how my mom used to make us Enchiladas growing up, she was born and raised in Mexico...this is legit!

      I've never seen ANY Mexican recipe cooked like this. HUGE amount of onions. Chicken fried and boiled in chicken broth and veggies. Lots more steps than necessary IMO.
      They look really tasty, but I've never seen this method used before.

      There's a big difference in "making dishes how you want them" and traditionally prepared food. I was a professional cook for 12 years. I don't rely on recipes for the food I prepare, but most of the ethnic cooking I have observed has very little variation in the ingredients and even less in the method of preparation.
      I had never seen enchiladas made like this before. Dipping the tortillas in the sauce 1st, then frying them is traditional, but few do it now because of the mess it creates. That part I found interesting because it has largely fallen out of favor.
      Be that as it may, no doubt they were delicious.

    Billy the secret to enchiladas is the sauce! In Chicago they always use pre made bottle or can. When I moved to Oklahoma a Mexican neighbor showed me how to make red sauce.

    When Billy said you can use any neutral-flavored oil, Chef Jean-Pierre's voice immediately came into my head and said "Or you can use clarified BUTTER! You can't go wrong with BUTTER, whoa whoa hah hah!"
    I feel like I have access to so many wonderful chefs giving me so many wonderful ideas, it's so much fun. I'm not even a third of the way through this video yet and already know I'm going to make it. Billy had me at the first ten seconds.

    Excellent recipe and techniques! Those look so bomb! The technique of dipping your tortilla in the sauce first then quickly frying in very little oil is the Sinaloan style. Enchiladas are a regional dish of the Mexican gastronomy that differ from state to state. Some of the best I’ve had are Jalisco style, Michoacán style, Sinaloa style and Oaxaca style. Insanely underrated delicious dish if made correctly, or should I say,
    authentically, with a sauce made from scratch and corn tortillas, each treated individually accordingly to style. I’ve made them combining styles and techniques from different states.

    Hey, Chef Billy! I watch all your videos and always learn something new! I was born and raised in Arizona and I've been making enchiladas for a long time. My question for you is regarding the order of cooking the corn tortillas. We have always cooked for seconds in oil THEN place in the enchilada sauce before assembling. Just the opposite where you first placed in the sauce then the oil. Do you have a reason for doing it in that manner? Thanks so much! Love your channel!

      @@AZ-Sharon I think his way makes sense. The tortilla will get coated in the sauce and then the frying will better bind that sauce while also carmelizing the sugars in the sauce.

    • @AZ-Sharon
      @AZ-Sharon Месяц назад +1

      @@BLTkitchenI most often skip that step and just soft fry the tortillas, pat the oil off, put the enchilada together, then pour the sauce over the top, completely covering them before baking.

    Looks absolutely delicious! And I typically like making things from scratch. But try this. Find some frozen taquitos at Costco, they come in chicken(?) rolled in flour tortillas or beef(?) in corn tortillas. Get some canned enchilada sauce, green if chicken, red if beef enchiladas. Put some sauce in bottom of baking dish. Add taquitos. Cover with sauce and grated cheese. Bake 350°F for 30 minutes. Done. Outrageously easy. You won't believe how good!

    Chef Billy, I'm stopping in to say I was wrong. I thought the way to cook the corn tortillas was oil first then sauce then fill. While that is indeed one way of doing it, I did a deep dive to see who/where the sauce then oil method originated and found it to be Michoacan. I thank you for showing me something new, as always!😎

    Chef Parisi, I have to tell you, I wouldn't change a thing from your recipe, this is exactly how I make my enchiladas rojas. Whenever I am out of mexican crema, I put a little bit of vinegar in heavy whipping cream, let it do its magic, and add some salt when it has thickened. You really can't substitute sour cream for Mexican crema! thank you so, so, much for what I consider, is honoring my roots and appreciating my mexican heritage. Might I suggest that your next mexican recipe be mole? Thanks Chef!

    an easier way is to throw your tortillas over your burner get a little char on them then dip into your sauce, then fill. much cleaner and you get more depth from the tortilla itself and better texture from drying the tortilla out some from the burner. less dishes,less clean up, less frying in oil etc.

    • @ChefBillyParisi
      @ChefBillyParisi  Месяц назад
