I've been cooking at home for several years and I try to make a real dinner to eat at the table at least three nights a week. Recently, I interned for Northern Virginia Magazine's food section.

Topping and Baking Enchiladas

Ingredients

For enchiladas:
2 cups each Monterey Jack & cheddar cheese, shredded
1 onion, diced
2 teaspoons cilantro, chopped
12-14 corn tortillas
For 1 dish of veggie enchiladas: 2 poblanos, sliced into strips
For 1 dish of chicken enchiladas: 4 chicken breast tenderloins, cumin, cayenne, black pepper, 1 garlic clove, 1 tablespoon olive oil

For sauce:
1 poblano
2-3 jalapenos (optional)
6 roma tomatoes
5 chipotles in adobo sauce
1 ½ tablespoons adobo sauce
Juice of 1 lime
¼ cup cilantro
1 garlic clove

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.


2. Slice chicken into small strips. Heat the olive oil. Saute the garlic until just golden, then add the chicken and sprinkle with cumin, cayenne and black pepper. Saute until chicken is white all the way through.


3. Mix the diced onion and chopped cilantro. Set aside.


4. Moisten a tortilla with water. On a plate, layer moistened tortilla between paper towels. Repeat until the stack is 4 tortillas high.  Microwave until warm and soft (time will vary based on your microwave's power)


5. Place a small amount of cheese in the center of a tortilla. Top with onion cilantro mixture. Add 3-4 pieces of chicken or 2 strips of poblano. Roll tortilla and place in a baking dish, seam side down.


6. Repeat steps 3 and 4 until the dish is filled.


7. Combine all sauce ingredients in food processor. Process until smooth.


8. Pour sauce over enchiladas. Top with the remaining cheese.


9. Bake for 25 minutes or until cheese is bubbly.

Hi! I am April Gruszkowski, and I am showing you How to make Enchiladas. Now we are going to finish the Enchiladas and bake them. We just going to take this sauce that we made and pour over the Enchiladas.

This is a lot better than a canned sauce I find. Put on neatly nights, if I am just going to in hurry you can go buy a dry I am using that instead of making my own. I think this is going to be a little bit spicy. There we go, there is some sauce. I am just going to put on what's left of the shredded cheese from the beginning. And now we bake the cheese at 375 degrees for about 25 minutes or so. It's been about 25 minutes and they should be done now.

So, we are just going to take them out and serve them, and that's how you make Enchiladas.
