ENCHILADAS DEL MAR (SEAFOOD ENCHILADAS)
This recipe was in the Nov 2006 Bon Appetit magazine. I have not tried it but It sounded so good I told another member about it and she asked me to post it. When I make it I shall revise the intro! The recipe calls for Oaxacan Cheese or mozarilla - the computer will not accept Oaxacan Cheese - your choice whichever one you want to use.

CHI CHI'S SEAFOOD ENCHILADAS
I spent 16+ years at Chi Chi's. This is the recipe you want. In the restaurant these are cooked right on the plate. (Remember... The plates are hot and then you touched them anyway. lol) You could cook them all together in a baking dish. Cook time and temperature may need to be adjusted if not cooking with a convection oven. Enjoy with your favorite spanich rice, refried beans and sweet corn cake.

SEAFOOD ENCHILADAS
These crab and shrimp stuffed enchiladas taste like the ones served at a popular Mexican restaurant in my area. My husband just loves them. After sprinkling the cheese over the enchiladas before baking, you can also garnish with tomatoes, cilantro, olive slices, or whatever other garnish you enjoy.

CHEESY SEAFOOD ENCHILADAS
Quick-cooking seafood and mildly spicy chile peppers and salsa make this dish a flavor adventure that my family loves. I've made it with chicken instead of fish, too. Just saute until done. -Trisha Kruse, Eagle, Idaho
