CREAMY SPINACH ENCHILADAS

I've been making this recipe on an off for years. First found it on the back of a tortilla packet. I've tweaked it a few times now. If you want you can add a small can of chicken, or a cooked chicken breast shredded up. I've done this and it goes well. I use Texas Red Enchilada Sauce Recipe #42094.

CREAMY CORN AND SPINACH ENCHILADAS

These enchiladas have a creamy richness that is hard to resist. They also have a nice tang from the tomatillo-based green sauce. Scrumptious and fast, the cream spinach and cream-style corn tucked inside make them even more luscious. Serve with sliced tomatoes and just wait for the "mmm's." Use a metal measuring cup to scoop the filling. This will keep sizes approximately the same for even baking.

Creamy Corn and Spinach Enchiladas image

Steps:

  • Position a rack in the bottom third of the oven and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly coat a 13 by 9-inch pan and a piece of foil large enough to cover the pan with nonstick cooking spray.
  • To make the filling: Heat the oil in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring frequently, until it is clear, about 4 minutes. Add the chicken, chiles and chili powder, and cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from the heat and stir in the corn, spinach, sour cream, cheese, and salt.
  • Place a stack of 6 tortillas between damp paper towels and microwave on high power until the tortillas are hot and soft enough to roll, about 1 minute. Cover with a cloth towel to keep warm. Remove 1 tortilla at a time, keeping the other tortillas covered, and place a rounded 1/3 cup of the filling down to the center. Roll into a cylinder and place in the prepared pan, seam side down and close enough to touch. Repeat with the remaining tortillas. Cover the pan tightly with foil and bake until the enchiladas are hot, about 30 minutes.
  • To make the sauce: Meanwhile, stir the taco sauce and sour cream together in a small bowl. Uncover the pan and spread the sauce over the hot enchiladas. Sprinkle cheese and cilantro over the top. Return to the oven, uncovered, and bake until the cheese melts and the sauce is bubbly, about 10 minutes.

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 large onion, chopped (about 1 cup)
2 1/2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken, pulled apart by hand
1 (4-ounce) can diced mild green chiles
2 teaspoons chili powder
1 (14 3/4-ounce) can cream-style corn
1 (10-ounce) box frozen creamed spinach, thawed
1/2 cup light sour cream
1 cup already shredded Monterey jack cheese (4 ounces)
1/2 teaspoon salt
12 super size corn tortillas (each about 6 1/2-inches across)
3/4 cup green taco sauce or salsa verde (not chunky)
1/2 cup light sour cream
Shredded Monterey jack cheese, to taste
1/2 cup finely chopped cilantro leaves

SPINACH AND CHEESE ENCHILADAS

From the accolades I got, I really should have spent hours in the kitchen, but this little recipe was embarrassingly easy. Use thawed frozen spinach in lieu of the fresh to save money and time and use whatever jarred salsa you happen to have. I used store brand roasted chipotle to great effect.

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375°. Spray an 11 x 13 covered casserole dish with cooking spray and set aside.
  • Heat oil in a wide, deep skillet and sauté the garlic until golden, about 1 minute. Add spinach and cook, stirring occasionally, until nicely wilted. Turn off heat.
  • Transfer cooked spinach to a colander and allow to drain, or, once slightly cooled, to a salad spinner. Discard liquid and return spinach to pan.
  • Add cheeses, stirring well. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

  • Pour salsa over, and bake, covered, for 15 - 20 minutes (allow more if refrigerated) until hot through. Serve with a crisp salad and a cold beer.
