Creamy Corn And Spinach Enchiladas Recipes

SPINACH ENCHILADAS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add garlic and onion; cook for a few minutes until fragrant, but not brown. Stir in spinach, and cook for about 5 more minutes. Remove from the heat, and mix in ricotta cheese, sour cream, and 1 cup of Monterey Jack cheese.
• In a skillet over medium heat, warm tortillas one at a time until flexible, about 15 seconds. Spoon about 1/4 cup of the spinach mixture onto the center of each tortilla. Roll up, and place seam side down in a 9x13 inch baking dish. Pour enchilada sauce over the top, and sprinkle with the remaining cup of Monterey Jack.
• Bake for 15 to 20 minutes in the preheated oven, until sauce is bubbling and cheese is lightly browned at the edges.

CREAMY CORN AND SPINACH ENCHILADAS WITH CHICKEN

Steps:

• Filling: Heat oil in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and cook until clear.
• Add chicken, chilies, cayenne and cumin, and cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly.
• Remove from heat and stir in corn, spinach, sour cream, 1 cup monterey jack cheese and salt. Adjust seasonings if necessary.
• Lightly spray a 13x9 inch pan and a piece of aluminum foil big enough to cover it with non-stick spray.
• Microwave 6 tortillas wrapped in damp paper towels on high about 1 minute, until soft enough to roll. Keep warm during assembly by covering with clean kitchen towel. Place a rounded 1/3 cup filling down each tortilla, roll into a cylinder and place seam side down in pan. Repeat with all 12 tortillas. You will probably have two layers of enchiladas in the pan.
• For sauce: stir the taco sauce and sour cream together in a small bowl. Pour evenly over enchiladas in pan. Bake, covered with foil for 30 minutes at 350 degrees, sprinkle with cheese and cilantro, and bake uncovered 10 minutes more or until cheese is melted.

• Lightly grease 9x13 baking dish with olive oil.
• Fill each tortilla with 2 or 3 large spoonfuls of corn / spinach mixture. Roll tortillas and line in baking dish. (It may help to warm tortillas in kitchen clothes for 30 seconds in the microwave to ease rolling. Also, I was able to fit 8 across and 4 down in my baking dish.).
• Add tomatillo sauce to cover rolled enchiladas and cover with cheese.
• Bake at 350 for about 30 minutes or until brown on top.
