Triple recipe for Chicken rellenos.
This recipe is from '©Santa Fe Recipe' page 219.
I spent a lot of 1993 and 1994 in Albuquerque NM. Fell in love with NM green chiles. This cookbook was found in a small bookstore where they invited you to copy a recipe on a recipe card, take it home, try it, and then come back and buy the book. Worked. I bought three: 'Santa Fe Recipe', 'Taos Recipe', and 'The Whole Chile Book'. |

Notes: This recipe was founded upon a recipe from '©Santa Fe Recipe' Guadalupe Cafe page 120. Highly modified to make construction easier. I used to use chicken breasts but the family decided tenders were better. Two tenders with a mess of sauce is about right for a serving with a scoop of white rice. The original Guadalupe Cafe dish is great but I like my version better with the Champagne Green Chile Sauce. Freezes well.
