  • 8 corn tortillas

  • 5 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided

  • 2 1/4 cups homemade chicken stock or store-bought low-sodium chicken broth

  • 5 large dried guajillos chiles (1 ounce), stemmed and seeded

  • 2 medium dried cascabeles chiles (1/4 ounce), stemmed and seeded

  • 2 garlic cloves, lightly crushed

  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt

  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano, preferably Mexican

  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

  • 4 large bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs (about 6 ounces each)

  • 2 medium Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and cut into 2-inch pieces

  • 3 medium carrots, cut into 2-inch pieces

  • 1/2 large white onion, sliced

  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar

  • 12 ounces queso fresco or Cotija, crumbled

  • Shredded iceberg lettuce, finely chopped onion, Mexican crema, whole jalapeños en escabeche, for serving


Directions

  1. Brush both sides of the tortillas with 2 tablespoons oil. Heat a large skillet over medium-high. Working in batches, char the tortillas until they’re lightly browned and starting to crisp, about 1 minute per side. Set the tortillas aside until you’re ready to assemble.

  2. Bring the broth, chiles guajillos, chiles cascabeles, garlic, salt, oregano, and pepper to a boil in a medium saucepan over medium-high. Remove from the heat, cover, and let sit until the chiles are soft, about 30 minutes. Transfer to a blender and puree until smooth.

  3. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large heavy pot over medium-high. Add the chicken, skin side down, and cook without turning until deep golden brown, 5 to 6 minutes. Turn the pieces over and cook until browned the other side, 5 to 6 minutes more. Transfer the chicken to a plate. If there isn’t at least 1 tablespoon of fat in the pot, add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil along with the potatoes, carrots, and onion. Cook, tossing occasionally, until the vegetables are lightly browned, 4 to 6 minutes.

  4. Pour the chile puree into the pot with the vegetables and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot. Nestle the chicken into the sauce and bring the mixture to a boil. Cover the pot and reduce the heat to low. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is completely tender and cooked through, about 30 minutes.

  5. Stir the vinegar into the pot and mound the chicken and vegetables on one side so there’s room on the other side to dip the tortillas into the sauce.

  6. Using tongs and working with one tortilla at a time, dip into the chile sauce, turning to coat, and cook in the sauce until softened (they will soften more as they sit), about 3 seconds per side. Transfer the tortillas to a baking sheet as you go. Spoon 2 tablespoons queso fresco across the center of each tortilla and fold over like a taco.

  7. Divide the enchiladas, chicken, and vegetables among four plates and spoon more chile sauce over top. Top with shredded iceberg lettuce, finely chopped onion, Mexican crema, jalapeños en escabeche, and any remaining sauce and queso.


Make ahead

Prepare the chicken, vegetables, and sauce up to two days ahead and refrigerate together. Reheat gently, then sear and dip the tortillas and add the toppings just before serving.
