Steps:

  • Heat 2 tbsp of the oil in your largest pan, then fry the onions, peppers, chopped chilli and coriander stalks with half the garlic for 10 mins until soft. Stir in 2 tsp ground coriander and 2 tsp cumin seeds, then fry for 1 min more. Meanwhile, in another frying pan, fry the chicken in the remaining oil, in batches, until browned - add it to the pan of veg as it is done.
  • Stir the beans, sweetcorn, coriander leaves and 150ml of the passata into the veg and chicken. In a bowl, mix the rest of the passata with the other crushed garlic clove, the remaining spices and the sugar, then set aside.
  • To assemble, lay the tortillas onto a board and divide the chicken mixture between them, folding over the ends and rolling up to seal. Divide the passata sauce into the dishes you are using, then top with the enchiladas. Dot over the soured cream, sprinkle with grated cheese and scatter with the sliced chilli.
  • Cool and freeze (see freezing tips, below) or, if eating straight away, heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6, then bake for 30 mins, scattering with more coriander leaves to serve, if you like.

CHICKEN OR TURKEY ENCHILADAS

I found this recipe in an old Betty Crocker grocery store recipe book (my friend gave me a huge pile of them, so I have made quite a few). This is a very different and much lower fat version than the ones that use cream of chicken soup. My whole family enjoyed these, even the 5 year old!

CHICKEN OR TURKEY-MUSHROOM ENCHILADAS

I have made these with both cooked turkey or chicken, please use only Campbell's Cream of Chicken Soup for this any other brand of soup will not produce the best flavor! This recipe can easily be doubled but you will need to bake it in two 13 x 9-inch baking dishes --- if you prefer lots of sauce, then use 3 cans soup with 1-1/2 cups sour cream and increase the cheddar cheese slightly.

Steps:

  • In a small saucepan cook onion, covered, in a small amount of water over medium heat until tender; drain.
  • In a medium mixing bowl, stir together the cream cheese, the 1 tablespoons.
  • water, cumin, pepper, and salt.
  • Stir in the cooked onion and chicken.
  • Wrap the tortillas in foil.
  • Heat in a 350 degree oven for 10 to 15 minutes or until softened (if using a microwave, wrap the tortillas in a microwave-safe paper towel and micro-cook on high for 30 to 60 seconds until softened).
  • Meanwhile, spray a 9 x 13 baking dish with non-stick coating.
  • For each enchilada, spoon approximately 1/4 cup of the chicken mixture onto one tortilla; roll up.
  • Place the tortilla, seam side down, in the baking dish.
  • Repeat with the remaining filling and tortillas.
  • For the sauce, in a medium mixing bowl combine soup, sour cream, milk, and jalapeno peppers; pour mixture over the enchiladas.
  • Bake covered, in a 350 degree oven for about 40 minutes or until heated through.
  • Sprinkle with the cheese.
  • Bake the enchiladas, uncovered, for 4 to 5 minutes more until the cheese is melted.
  • Garnish with cilantro, parsley, tomatoes, and sweet peppers if desired.
  • NOTE: Usually I don't have chicken prepared in advance, so I use 4 chicken breast halves and sprinkle them with salt, pepper, and cumin.
  • I either saute these or grill them until no longer pink.
  • I shred the meat and proceed as usual with the recipe.
  • The time to make does not include this step.
