"Spinach, shrimp, and cheese enchiladas are topped with a cream sauce seasoned with jalapenos, tomatillos and cilantro."
Ingredients:
3 fresh jalapeno peppers, stems removed 1 1/2 pounds fresh tomatillos, husks removed 3 green onions 1 small onion, quartered 1 bunch fresh cilantro, stems trimmed 1 cup heavy cream 1 cup chicken broth 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper | 1 pound frozen fully cooked salad shrimp , thawed 1 (9 ounce) bag baby spinach leaves 2 teaspoons vegetable oil, divided 10 (6 inch) corn tortillas 8 ounces shredded Monterey Jack cheese 1/2 cup sour cream (optional) 1 tablespoon green pepper sauce (e.g., Tabasco®) (optional) |
Directions:
1. | Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly oil a 9x13 inch baking dish. |
2. | Place jalapeno peppers, tomatillos, green onions, quartered onion, and cilantro in a food processor. Pulse until mixture is coarsely chopped, about 8 pulses. Pour mixture into a saucepan over medium heat and bring to a simmer; cook about 5 minutes. Stir in cream and chicken broth; season with salt and pepper. Return to a simmer and cook until slightly thickened, about 10 minutes. Set aside. |
3. | Place shrimp and spinach in a skillet over medium heat. Cover tightly and cook until spinach wilts and shrimp are heated through, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat. |
4. | Wipe skillet dry and pour in 1 teaspoon of the oil; heat oil over medium heat. Place a tortilla in skillet about 10 seconds; turn and heat on second side about 5 seconds to soften for easier handling. Fill tortilla with a tablespoon of the shrimp and spinach mixture and about a tablespoon of shredded cheese. Repeat with each tortilla adding more oil to the skillet as needed. Place filled tortillas snugly in prepared baking dish. |
5. | Pour sauce over tortillas and sprinkle with remaining grated cheese and any remaining filling. Top with dollops of sour cream and some green pepper sauce, if desired. |
6. | Bake in preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes or until hot and bubbly. |
