Reserve remaining Monterey Jack and mozzarella cheeses for topping.

  • Pour enchilada sauce over filled enchiladas and sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of Monterey Jack and mozzarella cheeses over the top.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until filling is bubbling and cheese topping is browned at the edges, about 30 minutes.

CHICKEN AND SPINACH ENCHILADAS

These are excellent enchiladas. Yes, there really is spinach in them! They are very rich and very filling, you will be stuffed. My husband and I got them from my sister-in-law. My husband raved about them and then told me there was spinach in them and wanted me to try them. I told him he was crazy. Well I tried them and they are so good, and I don't even like spinach and he doesn't either. You have to try these!!! You will love them!

Steps:

  • Over Med to Med/Low heat add broth and onion to a sauce pan or skillet. Simmer covered until onions start to become translucent.
  • Add Shredded Chicken, Drained Spinach, Creole Seasoning, Cumin and Garlic Powder. Stir & Simmer until all ingredients are heated through (most of broth should be evaporated) Drain any remaining liquid and let cool to manageable temperature.
  • In the meantime preheat oven to 425°F.
  • Soften Tortillas by your preferred method. I wrap them (fanned out like cards in a circle) in a damp towel and microwave approximately 1 minute.
  • When Chicken/Spinach mixture has cooled, mix in 1/2 - 2/3 of shredded cheese.
  • In a 15x10x2 glass casserole Lightly sprayed with Pam or canola oil spray I assemble the Enchiladas (I just eyeball how much mix per tortilla). Load up the tortillas and roll one at a time. Finishing seam side down. I like to keep them from touching each other before adding sauce.
  • Spoon enough Crema Mexicana over each Enchilada to cover, sprinkle the remaining cheese over the top. Cover with foil and bake in preheated over at 425°F for 10-12 minutes. Remove foil and if desired (should be hot and bubbly) Broil for 1-2 minutes.
  • Serve topped with sliced jalapeños or your favorite salsa. Goes great with Spanish rice or refried beans.
  • Enjoy!

Steps:

  • For the sauce: Combine all of the sauce ingredients in a saucepan. Bring to a simmer and cook until all of the vegetables are tender, about 15 minutes. If desired, you can puree with an immersion blender or an immersion blender for a smooth consistency. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Thin with water, if necessary. While the sauce is simmering, make the filling.
  • For the filling: Heat a 12-inch nonstick saute pan over medium heat. Add the onions and garlic and cook until the onions are translucent, about 4 minutes. Add the mushrooms and cook until they have released most of their liquid, about 6 minutes. Add a few tablespoons of water if the mushrooms get too dry. Add the spinach and cook until it is heated through. Combine the milk and the cornstarch to make a slurry. Add the milk mixture and bring to a simmer. Once the mixture comes to a simmer, the cornstarch will thicken the liquid. Cook for 1 minute. Add the cumin, chipotle, and lime juice and mix well. Remove from the heat and season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Cool slightly.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Wrap the tortillas in a wet paper towel and microwave for 15 seconds to heat. Ladle 1/2 of the sauce into the bottom of a baking dish. Place a few tablespoons of the filling on each tortilla and roll into a cylinder. Place, seam side down in the dish. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling. Top with the remaining sauce and the cheese. Bake, uncovered, until heated through and bubbly, about 25 to 30 minutes.

Steps:

  • Place chicken in a large pot, and pour chicken stock over it. Add enough water to cover if necessary. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, and cook until chicken is cooked through and very tender, about 1 hour. Transfer chicken to a bowl to cool, and reserve the stock to use for enchilada sauce if desired. When chicken is cool enough to handle, remove meat from bones, and shred; set aside.
  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion, and cook until the slices start to soften, about 5 minutes. Add peppers, and cook until tender, about 7 minutes. Transfer to a bowl, and set aside.
  • When ready to assemble, preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place enchilada sauce in a medium saucepan over medium heat. When hot, dip tortillas into sauce, one at a time, to soften, and place side by side on two baking sheets. Divide the shredded chicken and pepper mixture among the tortillas. Place cheeses in a bowl, and toss to combine. Top each tortilla with 2 tablespoons grated cheese. Roll up tortillas, and place snugly seam side down in a 9-by-13-inch ovenproof baking dish. Top them with the remaining enchilada sauce and with the remaining grated cheese. Bake until the enchiladas are heated through and the cheese is melted, about 30 minutes. Serve with the salsa, sour cream, or both if desired.
