 Categories: Poultry, Vegetables, Herbs, Cheese, Breads
      Yield: 4 Servings
 
      4    Chicken hindquarters
      1 lg Onion; 1/2 slices
      3 cl Garlic; peeled
    1/2 ts Thyme leaves
      1 ts Mexican oregano
     28 oz (2 cans) chopped
           - fire-roasted tomatoes
    1/2 ts Salt
      4 md Potatoes; cooked, cubed
      4 lg Carrots; peeled, cooked,
           - sliced
      8    Corn tortillas
      8 oz Jar prepared enchilada
           - sauce
      1 c  Queso cotija
      2 c  Shredded romaine
 
  In a large pot, combine chicken, one half of the onion,
  garlic, thyme, and oregano. Add cold water to cover;
  bring to boiling over high heat. Reduce heat; let chicken
  simmer for 30 minutes. Using tongs, transfer chicken
  pieces to a plate. Cover and keep warm. Remove 1 cup
  of the chicken cooking water; discard remainder.
  
  In a food processor or blender, combine remaining half of
  onion,tomatoes, salt and the reserved chicken cooking
  water. Blend quickly, just enough to form a chunky sauce.
  Transfer mixture to a medium saucepan; bring to simmering
  and let cook for about 15 minutes or until sauce
  thickens.
  
  Pull skin from chicken pieces and discard skin. In a
  large skillet, pour vegetable oil until about 1/4-inch
  deep. Heat oil until shimmery; add chicken pieces and
  cook, turning once, until chicken is browned. Remove
  chicken and keep warm. Add potatoes and carrots; cook and
  stir for about a minute or until warmed through. Remove
  from skillet and keep warm. Add enchilada sauce to
  skillet; heat to simmering. Dip tortillas in enchilada
  sauce; remove from skillet and fold into quarters.
  
  On each of four serving plates, place one piece of
  chicken. Spoon generously with chunky sauce. On opposite
  sides of the plate, arrange cooked potatoes, cooked
  carrots and folded tortillas. Sprinkle tortillas with
  queso cotija; sprinkle chicken with shredded romaine.
  Serve immediately.
