Shrimp with spicy tomatillo-and-cilantro sauce, a common combination in coastal Mexican cuisine, make bright-tasting enchiladas. Precooked shrimp help get them on your table in a hurry.
Active Minutes: 20 |
| Ingredients: |
1 pound peeled cooked shrimp (21-25 per pound; thawed if frozen), tails removed, diced
1 cup frozen corn, thawed 2 cans (4-ounces each) chopped green chiles (not drained) 2 cups canned green enchilada sauce or green salsa, divided 12 corn tortillas 1 can (15-ounce) nonfat refried beans 1 cup reduced-fat shredded cheese, such as Mexican-style, Monterey Jack or Cheddar 1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro 1 lime, cut into wedges |
| Instructions: |
1. Preheat oven to 425°F. Coat a 9-by-13-inch glass baking dish with cooking spray. 2. Combine shrimp, corn, chiles and 1/2 cup enchilada sauce (or salsa) in a microwave-safe medium bowl. Cover and microwave on High until heated through, 2 1/2 minutes. 3. Spread 1/4 cup enchilada sauce (or salsa) in the prepared baking dish. Top with an overlapping layer of 6 tortillas. Spread refried beans evenly over the tortillas. Top the beans with the shrimp mixture, followed by the remaining 6 tortillas. Pour the remaining sauce (or salsa) over the tortillas. Cover with foil. 4. Bake the enchiladas until they begin to bubble on the sides, about 20 minutes. Remove the foil; sprinkle cheese on top. Continue baking until heated through and the cheese is melted, about 5 minutes more. Top with cilantro and serve with lime wedges.
