Mexican

Chile Poblano Rellenos

Classic Oaxacan chiles rellenos, made with dove meat in the picadillo filling. This was so worth the effort! And you can do this recipe with pretty much any meat you have on hand.

Mexican

I am lucky enough to have feral little tomatillos grow in my garden, and so each year I make a big batch of Mexican tomatillo salsa verde. I eat some fresh, but the rest I can for the winter. This is a canning-safe recipe.

Fish Tacos

If you live in California, this is a baseline fish recipe with most anglers. Everyone has a personal version of it, and pretty much anything you catch will work in a fish taco, although I used halibut here. My version uses a little salsa verde and avocado.

Venison

Dzik, Venison Yucatan

This is a bit like venison barbacoa, but this version, from the Yucatan in southern Mexico, is so zippy it's just as good eaten as a cold salad. Either way, this is an excellent recipe for a front shoulder, neck or roast.

Pozole Verde

Pozole is a classic Mexican soup, and like many Mexican dishes, it comes in red and green. I like both, but this is the green version I make with pheasant or wild pig, hominy, tomatillos, green chiles and avocado. Damn good use for pheasant legs, if I say so myself.
