Enchiladas

Green Sauce

Method

Enchiladas

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tortillas

    In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Lightly fry each corn tortilla for about 10-15 seconds on each side until they are pliable. Remove from skillet and set aside.

  2. 2

    Fill the Tortillas

    Take a tortilla and place about 1/4 cup of shredded chicken in the center. Roll the tortilla tightly around the filling and place seam-side down in a baking dish. Repeat with remaining tortillas and chicken.

  3. 3

    Add Cheese and Sour Cream

    Pour the green sauce over the rolled enchiladas in the baking dish. Sprinkle the Swiss cheese on top and dollop sour cream over the enchiladas.

Green Sauce

  1. 4

    Prepare the Green Sauce

    In a saucepan, combine tomatillos, jalapeño, garlic, cilantro, lime juice, water, and salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for about 10 minutes until the tomatillos are tender.

  2. 5

    Blend the Sauce

    Use an immersion blender or transfer the mixture to a regular blender. Blend until smooth, then set aside.
