Categories     Dinner     Main Course

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 18

8 flour tortillas (I like to use the uncooked tortillas from Costco, no need to pre-cook, they cook up as they bake)
1 bag fresh spinach (don't use the frozen)
1 brick Monterrey Jack cheese (shredded)
sour cream
2 avocados (sliced (just before serving))
2 tomatoes (diced)
1 cup chicken broth
5 medium tomatillos (husked and rinsed)
7 oz diced green chilis (undrained)
3 Tbsp yellow onion
1 green onion
1 clove garlic
3 Tbsp cilantro
1/2 Poblano pepper
1/2 lime (juiced)
2 tsp sugar
1/2 tsp cumin
Salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Combine all ingredients in a blender, blend for a minute or two until everything is very well blended. Pour sauce into a medium saucepan and bring just to a boil over medium high heat. Reduce heat and simmer 20 minutes, until sauce thickens.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Layer the bottom of a 9x13 pan with about 1/2 c. of the green enchilada sauce.
  • Roll each tortilla with 1/2 cup fresh spinach and 1/3 cup shredded cheese then place each one, fold side down, into the pan. Top with remaining enchilada sauce and sprinkle with more shredded cheese, to taste.
  • Bake in preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes until cheese is bubbling and enchiladas are heated through. Serve topped with sour cream, sliced avocados, and diced tomatoes.

Provided by Jeff Mauro, host of Sandwich King

Time 45m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

3/4 cup vegetable oil
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons ancho chile powder
1 tablespoon chipotle chile powder
2 teaspoons cocoa powder
2 teaspoons dried oregano
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
2 cups low-sodium chicken stock
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
12 yellow corn tortillas
16 ounces Chihuahua or Oaxaca cheese, shredded
4 ounces sharp Cheddar, shredded
4 ounces Monterey Jack cheese, shredded
1/4 cup pickled jalapenos
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, minced

Steps:

  • Heat 1/4 cup of the oil in a medium pot over medium heat. Add the flour and whisk until smooth. Add the ancho chile, chipotle chile, cocoa, oregano, garlic powder and cumin and cook, whisking frequently, until the mixture is thickened slightly and fragrant, about 5 minutes. Add the chicken stock, whisk until smooth and continue to cook until slightly thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the vinegar and season with salt and pepper.

Cover with the remaining sauce and top with the remaining cheese.
  • Bake until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Garnish with the pickled jalapeno and fresh cilantro.
