Time 1h40m

Yield 6 servings (2 enchiladas each)

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/2 small onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, chopped
2 teaspoons ancho chile powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
Large pinch cayenne pepper
One 15-ounce can tomato puree
Kosher salt
One 10-ounce package frozen chopped spinach, thawed
One 15-ounce can pinto beans, strained and rinsed
4 ounces shredded Cheddar (about 1 1/2 cups)
4 ounces shredded pepper Jack cheese (about 1 1/2 cups)
1/2 cup sour cream
3 scallions, sliced
Kosher salt
Twelve 6-inch corn or flour tortillas
Juice of 1/2 a lime

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • For the sauce: Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onions, and cook, stirring frequently, until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic, chile powder, cumin and cayenne, and continue to cook, stirring, until the spices are toasted, about 1 minute. Add 2 cups water, the tomato puree and 1/2 teaspoon salt, and bring to a simmer. Continue cooking until the sauce reduces and thickens slightly (it should be looser and thinner than marinara sauce), 15 to 20 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly.
  • For the filling: Squeeze all the excess moisture out of the spinach. Put it into a large bowl with the pinto beans, and squeeze with your hands to combine and smash up the beans a little. Add half of both the Cheddar and the pepper Jack, half of both the sour cream and the scallions and 1 1/4 teaspoons salt, and stir to combine.
  • Spread about 1/2 cup of the tomato sauce in the bottom of a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Lay the tortillas out on a work surface, and spread 1 side of each with about 1 teaspoon of tomato sauce. Put about 1/4 cup of the filling across the middle of each tortilla. Roll each up, then shingle them in 2 even rows in the baking dish. Pour the remaining sauce over the top of the rolled tortillas, and sprinkle with the remaining cheeses. Cover the baking dish loosely with foil, and bake until the cheeses are melted and the filling is hot, about 30 minutes. Uncover, and continue baking to heat completely through, about 10 minutes more.
  • For the topping: Whisk together the remaining sour cream, the lime juice and a pinch of salt in a small bowl. Drizzle the mixture over the baked enchiladas, and sprinkle with the remaining scallions.

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h10m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup cherry tomatoes
3 tablespoons olive oil
3/4 teaspoon chili powder, plus more for sprinkling
3/4 teaspoon ground cumin
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 poblano pepper, seeded and thinly sliced
1 red onion, thinly sliced
1 yellow squash, halved and cut into half-moons
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
16 corn tortillas
Two 15-ounce cans green enchilada sauce
3 cups grated Monterey Jack or pepper jack cheese (about 12 ounces)
Chopped fresh cilantro, for topping
Sour cream, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
  • Toss the cherry tomatoes, oil, chili powder, cumin, garlic, poblano, red onion, squash, 1 teaspoon salt and several grinds of pepper on a rimmed baking sheet. Roast, tossing once, until browned and tender, 7 to 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, one at a time, hold the tortillas with metal tongs over a stovetop burner set on medium heat to brown slightly, about 30 seconds per side. Set aside.
  • Pour one of the cans of enchilada sauce into a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Pour the other can of enchilada sauce into a bowl.
  • To assemble the enchiladas, dip a tortilla into the bowl of enchilada sauce, then lay on a plate. Sprinkle some of the Monterey Jack down the middle, followed by some of the roasted vegetables. Roll it up tightly, then place seam-side down in the baking dish. Repeat with the rest of the tortillas and most of the Monterey Jack (save a little cheese for topping).
  • Pour the remaining enchilada sauce from the bowl over the enchiladas, then top with the remaining cheese. Add a final sprinkling of chili powder, then bake until hot and bubbly, 15 to 17 minutes. Let sit for 10 minutes before serving, to ensure the enchiladas stay together when serving. Top with cilantro and serve with sour cream.
