Categories     Cheese

Time 50m

Yield 6 enchiladas, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 1/2 teaspoons chili powder, divided
2 (8 ounce) cans no-salt-added tomato sauce
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon cayenne
6 (6 inch) corn tortillas
1 (4 ounce) can whole green chilies, drained and cut into 6 strips
1/2 cup sliced green onion, divided
1/4 cup chopped seeded tomatoes, plus
2 tablespoons chopped seeded tomatoes
1/4 cup sour cream, plus
2 tablespoons sour cream

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350*F. In small mixing bowl, combine cheese and 1 teaspoon of chili powder. Reserve 1/2 cup mixture. Set aside. In shallow dish, combine remaining 1/2 teaspoon chili powder, the tomato sauce, sugar, cumin, garlic powder, and cayenne.
  • Dip both sides of 1 tortilla in sauce. Sprinkle 1/4 cup cheese mixture down center of tortilla. Place 1 strip of chili and 1 tablespoon onions over cheese mixture. Roll up tortilla. Place seam-side-down in 11 x 7-inch baking dish. Repeat with remaining tortillas, sauce, cheese mixture, chili strips and 5 tablespoons onions.
  • Spoon remaining sauce over enchiladas. Sprinkle with reserved cheese mixture. Cover dish with foil. Bake for 23-28 minutes, or until sauce is bubbly and cheese is melted. Sprinkle each serving with 1 tablespoon tomato, 1 tablespoon sour cream and 1 teaspoon remaining onions.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chili: Use a chili with a medium or mild heat level so that the spice doesn't overpower the other flavors in the dish.
  • Use fresh ingredients: Freshly grated cheese, chopped cilantro, and diced tomatoes will give your enchiladas the best flavor.
  • Don't overcook the tortillas: Tortillas should be pliable but not mushy. Dip them in the chili sauce briefly and then immediately fill and roll them.
  • Bake the enchiladas until the cheese is melted and bubbly: This will take about 20 minutes.
  • Serve the enchiladas with your favorite toppings: Sour cream, guacamole, salsa, and diced avocado are all great options.

Conclusion:

Cheesy chili enchiladas are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner or a party. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a dish that is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give this recipe a try!
