Smoked Chicken, Chile Enchiladas

[cowgirl]

Another fairly quick camp meal.
I smoked the chicken at home, shredded and bagged the meat, tossed it into the cooler and headed to the lake. (with the other ingredients, and cold beverages) :)

burned some wood down to hot coals..

Made a creamy sauce for the enchiladas with sour cream, chopped green chiles, milk, seasonings, and cheese.
Built the enchiladas with smoked chicken, the sauce, cheese, scallions

Some had black olives and some didn't.

I checked out the sacrificial tortilla...

it was crisp on the bottom but kept the enchiladas nice and soft.
I liked it!

It was a pretty night. :)


Sorry for so many photos but thanks for looking!

[chicagokp]

It might be ridiculous that you apologize for too many pictures...really? I'll have a plate please!

[smokeacholic]

You are just so cool in all you do. Looks wonderful.

[dwfisk]

Yum! My wife is the enchilada boss of our family. She used to take my leftover smoked chicken/turkey to make them; now i get asked to smoke some bird just for enchiladas:becky:

[SGH]

Lord have mercy that looks good. I honestly could eat that whole pot myself. That probably explains why i look like i do though!! In all seriousness, another spectacular cook sister:thumb:

[16Adams]

Great meal. Wasn't that moon fun??

[ShadowDriver]

Another fantastic camp meal in the books! Thanks for sharing it with us!

Looks divine, especially with the scenery.

[martyleach]

Beautiful pics and food Jeanie! I really wish I could get the missus to go camping again as I really miss it. Cooking out doors and the fire. Thanks for kicking up memories :) Now I just DO cook in the backyard, which is not quite as satisfying.

[Enrico Brandizzi]

For me never enough of your photos and cooks!

[Smoke on Badger Mountain]

Looks great Jeanie! I'll take two!

[Bludawg]

You know Enchiladas are my favorite comfort food those look awesome Jeanie so does the view I'm just a little jealous:wink:

[el_matt]

Those look amazing, and I could go for a plate, NOW!!!!!

Matt

[cheez59]

I heard hot, gooey, cheesey and smoky. Yes Jeanie you called my name. :thumb:

Very nice!

[Diesel Dave]

Your posts without pics would be a let down



Those look great and thanks for all the pics

[jsperk]

Awesome as usual.

[Gulfbeachman]

That is a great way to enjoy a meal.

I need one of those for fishing trips. Everything is self contained and compact. Makes it easy for a cook, when surf fishing and battling blowing winds.

Very inspiring and another fine post from you....thanks!

[bluetang]

Most excellent! Love those lake and sky pictures big time!

[Decoy205]

Oh Lordy that looks so good!

[Stingerhook]

Great looking food and a beautiful night. Thanks Jeanie.

[jacob]

Don't be surprised if one day I'm come walking out through the trees. Holding an empty plate, a GPS locator that also triangulates position, and waving my Brethren flag in friendship. Don't shoot me I'm just hungry.

[cowgirl]

Thank you everybody! You're a kind group of friends. :)

[Decoy205]

Thank you for sharing your great ideas!

[cowgirl]

Thank you for sharing your great ideas!

Thanks Decoy! :hug:

[Bonewagon]

I love it Jeanie!

[Trailer Trash]

Wow!!! "Sacrificial tortilla" great idea. You had me at "Hot and Gooey"! Great cook, setting and pics Jeanie!

[silverfinger]

I've never tried to make enchiladas yet I love them.
Those are amazing!

[cowgirl]

Thank you Jason, Gerry and Ray!

Gerry, the sacrificial tortilla worked well. Kept the enchiladas nice and moist. I'll be doing that again in the future.

Ray, I hope you give em a try sometime. :-D

[gtr]

Eating those enchiladas and barking at the moon sound like a fine evening to me. Very nicely done Jeanie! :thumb:

[sam3]

Great cook Jeanie! Love all the pics, looked like a perfect night.

[cowgirl]

Thank you Greg and Sam! :hug:

[alaskaneric]

Thanks for the "how to". How many enchiladas did you get in there? What size DO? Do you think you could layer them deeper than two layers?

[cowgirl]

Thanks for the "how to". How many enchiladas did you get in there? What size DO? Do you think you could layer them deeper than two layers?

Thanks! I made 10. You could definitely get more in there. I added a mixture of chicken stock and sour cream to the pot too, to a depth of about half way up the side. It kept everything moist.
This was a 12 inch DO.
Good luck and thanks again!

[jeffjenkins1]

Looking good Jeanie! Now I want some...

Jeff

[insaneh]

Awesome

[Wornslick]

Makes me want to go in and wrap tonights meatloaf in a tortilla wrapper, Thanks for posting another get looking campfire meal Jeanie!

[Papa Don]

My Wife thinks your photos are beautiful. Do you use a camera or your phone?
Oh, great looking food. A nice big Dutch oven is my next purchase.

[cowgirl]

Thank you guys!

Papa Don, thank your Mrs. for me too please.
I use my phone sometimes. My other camera is an old Kodak Easy Share. It's beat up but I'm going to use it til it falls apart.
I don't know enough about photography to purchase a nice camera. This one is pretty much point and click. :-D

[THoey1963]

Jeinie, you have a knack for taking something simple (precooked chicken and your EasyShare camera) and making something that appears much better than expected. Great cook as always...
