Share:
Ingredients
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 1 green bell pepper diced
- ½ onion diced
- 2 cloves garlic
- 8 tortillas 6" each, corn or flour
- 2 cups cooked shredded turkey or chicken
- 15 ounces enchilada sauce divided
- 2 cups Monterey jack cheese shredded, divided
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Lightly grease a 9x13 pan.
- Heat oil in a small skillet. Cook the onion and peppers over medium heat until tender. Stir in garlic and cook 1 minute more. Toss with the turkey and season with salt & pepper to taste.
- Place ½ cup enchilada sauce in the bottom of the prepared pan.
- Spread 1 tablespoon of enchilada sauce on each tortilla. Top each with ¼ cup of the turkey mixture and 2 tablespoons cheese. Roll up and place in the pan, seam side down.
- Pour remaining enchilada sauce over top and sprinkle with remaining cheese.
- Cover with foil and bake 15 minutes. Remove foil and bake uncovered for 5-10 minutes or until the cheese is browned and bubbly.
Notes
- Spread the sauce over the inside of the tortilla before rolling or dip the tortilla in the sauce before filling.
- Place the tortillas seam side down as you roll them.
- Bake just until heated through so the tortillas don't become soggy.
- To Make Ahead: Assemble this casserole and refrigerate for up to 2 days before baking.
- Freezing (Uncooked): Assemble and freeze up to 3 months before or after baking. Ensure it's covered in a layer of plastic wrap and then aluminum foil.
- Thaw in the refrigerator overnight. Preheat the oven to 350°F and cook for 30 minutes or until heated through.
