SOUR CREAM CHEESE ENCHILADAS RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350.
• Combine sour cream, soup, and chilis (and/or jalapenos) in a large sauce pan over medium heat.
• When sauce is well heated, set aside.
• Tortillas (step 1): Completely, but lightly cover both sides of one tortilla with shortening (Don't be afraid to use your hands), then place the tortilla on a microwave-safe plate.
• Tortillas (step 2): Completely but lightly cover one side of the next tortilla and place it atop the first tortilla, shortening side up.
• Repeat Step 2 until all tortillas are stacked, then microwave the entire stack on high for 4-5 minutes.
• Allow to cool.
• Combine shredded cheese and chopped onion in a bowl and gently mix together using your hands.
• Lightly cover the bottom of a baking dish with some of the sauce (This will prevent the tortillas from becoming stiff and chewy as they cook).
• Place a generous portion of the cheese/onion mixture onto a tortilla, then roll the tortilla like a cigar (not too tight though).
• Place into the baking dish, seam side down to prevent the enchilada from unrolling.
• Repeat until all tortillas have been stuffed, rolled, and placed into the baking dish (it may take more than one baking dish for 20 enchiladas).
• Cover the enchiladas with the sour cream sauce and any leftover cheese/onion stuffing.
• Bake uncovered for 25-30 minutes, depending on your oven.
• Allow to cool for 5 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Heat vegetable oil in skillet over medium heat.
• Dip corn tortillas in hot oil for 2-3 seconds to soften them.
• Drain on paper towels until cool.
• Mix the sour cream, soup and green chilies.
• Spread about 1 cup of the sour cream mixture over the bottom of a 9" X 13" X 2" baking pan.
• Place some grated cheese& chopped onion about 1 inch from the edge of a softened tortilla.
• You'll need to experiment to get exactly the right amount of filling.
• Too much filling and the tortilla won't roll.
• Too little filling and you'll mostly taste corn tortilla.
• It will probably take about 2 tablespoons of filling.
• Fold the edge over the filling and roll it tightly.
• Place the filled tortilla in the pan, seam side down.
• Continue rolling the tortillas and place them side by side in the pan.
• Pour the remaining sauce over the top.
• Top with the remaining onion and cheese.
• Bake in a 350 degree oven for 30-40 minutes until bubbly.
