Starting with a homemade red sauce, these Tex-Mex enchiladas are faster and easier to make than their Mexican forefathers, but still so delicious. This recipe makes 2 1/2 cups sauce, enough for 4 to 6 individual skillet enchiladas or 1 regular baking dish. Garnish with sour cream and guacamole.

Cook Time 35 minutes

Yield 1 three-layer enchilada

Number Of Ingredients 21

2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons olive oil
½ cup diced onion
½ teaspoon salt, or more to taste
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour, or more as needed
2 tablespoons ground ancho chile powder
2 teaspoons ground cumin
½ teaspoon chipotle chile powder
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
¼ teaspoon dried oregano
1 pinch cayenne pepper, or to taste
1 pinch ground cinnamon
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons tomato paste
2?½ cups chicken broth
3 (5 inch) corn tortillas
½ teaspoon vegetable oil
? cup shredded cooked chicken
? cup pepper Jack cheese
? cup chopped cilantro
? cup chopped green onions

Steps:

  • Melt butter with olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and salt; cook and stir until onion starts to turn golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in flour, chile powder, cumin, chipotle powder, black pepper, oregano, cayenne, and cinnamon. Cook and stir until fragrant, about 3 minutes. Add tomato paste and mix until fully combined. Pour in chicken broth and whisk until smooth.
  • Increase heat to high and bring sauce to a simmer. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until flavors come together, about 10 minutes. Taste and season as desired. Blend sauce with an immersion blender.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Lightly brush tortillas with oil. Heat a small cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Heat tortillas until flexible, about 30 seconds per side.
  • Cover the bottom of the skillet with a scoop of enchilada sauce. Place a tortilla on top and add 1/2 of the chicken, 1/3 of the Jack cheese, and 1/2 the cilantro and green onions. Spoon on more sauce and repeat layers, finishing with sauce and the remaining cheese.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until cheese melts and sauce is bubbling, 10 to 15 minutes.

Total Time 55 minutes

Prep Time 15 minutes

Cook Time 40 minutes

Number Of Ingredients 10

¾ pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-size pieces
1?½ tablespoons peanut oil
1 large green bell pepper, thinly sliced
1 cup frozen fire-roasted corn kernels, thawed
1 tablespoon whole-wheat pastry flour or all-purpose flour
1 15 - 16 ounce can red chile enchilada sauce
¾ cup low-sodium chicken stock
8 6-inch corn tortillas, warmed

¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees . In a bowl, toss the chicken with 1/2 tbsp. oil. Stir in the bell pepper and corn; spread on a large, rimmed baking sheet greased with cooking spray. Roast until the chicken is cooked, about 15 minutes. Place the chicken and the vegetables in a bowl.

  • Working one at a time, dip tortillas in the remaining sauce, transfer to a plate, fill with the chicken mixture, roll up, and place, seam side down, in the baking dish.
