CHICKEN ENCHILADAS WITH CREAMY GREEN CHILE SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
• Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Fry tortillas (1 at a time) for 5 seconds on each side to soften and make them pliable. Add more oil to pan as needed. Drain between layers of paper towel and keep warm.
• Divide chicken, 10 ounces of Monterey Jack cheese, and onion among the 12 tortillas. Roll up each tortilla and place seam-side down in the prepared pan.
• Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add flour and whisk until mixture begins to boil. Slowly add broth, stirring with a whisk until thickened. Mix in the sour cream and chiles, heating thoroughly but do not boil, stirring occasionally. Pour mixture over the enchiladas.
• Bake in the preheated oven until bubbly and heated through, about 20 minutes. Top with remaining Monterey Jack cheese and bake for 5 more minutes. Garnish with chopped green onions and cilantro.

FISH ENCHILADAS WITH CREAMY GREEN CHILE SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350° F. Spray a 13×9 baking pan with cooking spray. Heat a medium skillet over medium-high heat and add olive oil. Swirl to coat the pan. Add garlic and saute about two minutes, until slightly golden, then turn the heat to low and stir in cumin. Add the fish and tomato and heat through. Turn off the heat and add the lime juice, cilantro and salt and pepper to taste. Stir. Mix the green chile sauce and sour cream in a small bowl. Place about two tablespoons of fish mixture in tortillas and roll up, then place in casserole seam side down. (I find the tortillas more pliable and easier to work with if I wrap a stack of them in a damp kitchen towel and microwave them for 45 seconds.) After all the tortillas are filled and rolled, pour the green chile sauce evenly over them and sprinkle cheese on top. Cover and bake for 30 minutes until sauce is bubbly and cheese is melted. Sprinkle with reserved cilantro and serve. Preferably with margaritas.
