Ingredients
Method
Techniques
- 1 whole diced onion
- olive oil
- salt
Saute a diced onion in a little olive oil over medium-high heat with a big pinch of salt, stirring a few minutes until it just turns translucent.
- 1 whole red bell pepper
- 2 whole dark green poblano peppers
- freshly ground black pepper
- ground cumin
- dry oregano
Add the diced red bell and poblano peppers, black pepper, cumin and dried oregano; cook about 2 minutes until the peppers start to soften.
- 1 can whole chipotle peppers packed in adobo sauce
Add the can of chipotles in adobo, break them up with a spatula, turn off the heat.
- 3–4 cup leftover turkey
- sharp cheddar cheese
- 1 can red enchilada sauce
- salt
- chicken broth
Bone, skin and cube the turkey to about a quarter inch; add to the pan with sharp cheddar, the red enchilada sauce, salt and chicken broth used to rinse the jar. Stir and pour into a casserole dish; the mixture should be runny so it stays saucy after baking.
- cornmeal
- self-rising flour
- white sugar
- salt
- 2 whole large eggs
- whole milk
Whisk cornmeal, self-rising flour, a little white sugar and salt; whisk in two eggs and cold whole milk to a very thin batter.
Ladle the batter carefully over the filling for an even layer; set the dish on a sheet pan; scatter over the rest of the cheese (no butter in the batter).
Bake in the centre of a 375F oven 45 minutes to an hour until browned, bubbling and the topping is cooked through; a toothpick should come out clean.
- sour cream
- chopped cilantro
Serve without resting, with a dollop of sour cream and chopped cilantro.
