Terrific Turkey Enchiladas



 





Taste of Home: April/May 2011 Recipe By: Jenn Tidwell

Ingredients:

1-1/4 cups frozen corn, thawed
1 can (4 ounces) chopped green chilies
1 cup fresh cilantro leaves
1/3 cup heavy whipping cream
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper


ENCHILADAS:
3/4 pound ground turkey
1/3 cup chopped onion
1 garlic clove, minced
1 tablespoon olive oil
3/4 cup salsa
1 tablespoon cornmeal
2 teaspoons chili powder
1-1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
6 flour tortillas (8 inches), warmed   ***** Note: I made my own the day before and doubled their size so they would be Enchilada size. Refer back to recipe on one of my previously posted blogs
1-1/4 cups shredded Mexican cheese blend, divided
1/4 cup sliced ripe olives

Directions:
1. Place the first six ingredients in a food processor; cover and pulse until blended.
2. In a large skillet, cook the turkey, onion and garlic in oil over medium heat until meat is no longer pink.
3. Remove from the heat; stir in the salsa, cornmeal and seasonings.
4. Spoon 1/3 cup turkey mixture down the center of each tortilla; top with 2 tablespoons cheese. Roll up and place seam side down in a greased 11-in. x 7-in. baking dish. Spoon corn mixture over the top; sprinkle with olives and remaining cheese.
5. Cover and bake at 350° for 30 minutes. Uncover; bake 5-10 minutes longer or until heated through. Yield: 3 servings.

Note: Very Yummy! The Cilantro sauce was excellent. I would substitute chicken next time
