Baked Cheesy Cuban Chicken Taquitos

Ingredients
453.59 g ground chicken
1 yellow onion, chopped
1 poblano or green bell pepper, chopped
4 cloves garlic, chopped
2 teaspoons dried oregano
1 teaspoon ground cumin
0.5 teaspoon cayenne pepper, use more or less to taste
salt and black pepper
2 tablespoons chopped pepperoncini
480 g red enchilada sauce
16 (6-inch) corn tortillas, warmed
olive oil for coating
216 g shredded Swiss cheese
113 g shredded pepper jack cheese
2 avocados chopped or sliced
Greek yogurt, limes, and sea salt, for serving
Pineapple Salsa
1 jalapeño, seeded if desired, and chopped
330 g diced pineapple
8 g cilantro chopped
59.15 ml lime juice

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 425°F.

2. Cook the ground chicken in a skillet set over medium-high heat. Add the onions and peppers. Break up the meat as you go, about 5 minutes, until cooked throughout.

3. Add the garlic, oregano, cumin, cayenne, salt, pepper, and 1/2 cup water. Cook for 5 minutes, until fragrant. Mix in the pepperoncini. Remove from the heat.

4. Working in batches, warm the tortillas in the microwave in 30-second intervals until pliable. Place the tortillas on a baking sheet and rub with olive oil on one side. Spoon 2 tablespoons of chicken down the center of each tortilla. Roll up and arrange seam-side down on the baking sheet

5. Bake for 10 minutes, until crispy. Pour the enchilada sauce over the crispy taquitos. Scatter the cheese all over. Bake for another 10 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbling.

6. To make the salsa, combine all ingredients in a bowl.

7. Top with avocado, yogurt, and salsa.

Mushroom Asparagus Quiche

Ingredients
1 tube (8 ounces) refrigerated crescent rolls
2 teaspoons prepared mustard
1-1/2 pounds fresh asparagus, trimmed and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 medium onion, chopped
1/2 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
1/4 cup butter, cubed
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
2 cups shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon each dried basil, oregano, parsley and rubbed sage

Directions
Separate crescent dough into 8 triangles; place in an ungreased 9-in. pie plate with points toward the center. Press dough onto the bottom and up the sides to form a crust; seal perforations. Spread with mustard; set aside.
In a large skillet, saute the asparagus, onion and mushrooms in butter until asparagus is crisp-tender. In a large bowl, combine the remaining ingredients; stir in asparagus mixture. Pour into crust.
Bake at 375° for 25-30 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Let stand for 10 minutes before cutting

Here's a new #introduction for my #newinstance

I'm Pat, a 60-something guy in the suburbs of #Chicago, #USA. I'm #Catholic, love #boxing (and box for exercise myself). I'm a #foodie and love to #cook, #bake, and make #bbq for my friends and family. I'm also a bit of a nerd, and you can find me here on #Mastodon, instead of all the corporately-entangled social media.
