Sprinkle with the flour and whisk to combine. Stir in chicken stock, bring to a simmer, stirring, and cook for 1 to 2 minutes, until thickened. Remove from heat and add to a blender.
• Peel the blackened skin off the poblanos--this is easier to do under cold running water. Then remove the stems and seeds. Add the flesh to the sauce base in the blender. Blend until smooth, 1 to 2 minutes. Return the poblano sauce to the saucepan and bring to a simmer. Add the cream, starting with 1 cup--add more if necessary. Simmer for 3 to 5 minutes. Season with salt and lemon juice
• For the shrimp and crab: In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add a pinch of salt and red pepper flakes. Add the shrimp and cook, tossing, until opaque.

• In a medium saucepan, heat the Guajillo Salsa over medium heat until warm.
• In a separate medium saute pan over medium-high heat, pour enough vegetable oil to come 1-inch up the sides of the pan. Fry the tortillas until slightly golden but still pliable. Then transfer to the pan with the salsa, turning the tortillas in the salsa until fully coated.
• Transfer the salsa-coated tortillas to a baking sheet (it's kind of messy so doing it on a baking sheet keeps it clean). Add a couple tablespoons of sauteed shrimp and a sprinkle of Oaxaca cheese. Roll up like a cigar and place in an 11-by-7-inch glass baking dish. Repeat with 7 or 8 tortillas, fitting snuggly into the dish.
• Pour the remaining sauce over the prepared enchiladas (There should be some sauce left in the saucepan to top the enchiladas. If necessary, whisk in 2 tablespoons of water or chicken broth to increase the yield.) Top with the remaining Oaxaca cheese.
