Two types of seafood and a flavorful sauce make these enchiladas outstanding. I prepared them for an annual fund raiser, where they're always in demand. Spice up the recipe to your taste by adding more green chilies and salsa.
Ingredients:
1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
1 cup chicken broth
1 can (10-3/4 ounces) condensed cream of chicken soup, undiluted
1 cup (8 ounces) sour cream
1/2 cup salsa
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 cup (8 ounces) 4% cottage cheese
1 pound small shrimp, cooked, peeled and deveined
1 cup cooked or canned crabmeat, drained, flaked and cartilage removed
1-1/2 cups (6 ounces) shredded monterey jack cheese
1 can (4 ounces) chopped green chilies
1 tablespoon dried cilantro flakes
12 flour tortillas (7 inches)
additional salsa
Directions:
1. In a saucepan over low heat, melt butter; stir in flour until smooth. Gradually stir in broth and soup until blended. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until slightly thickened. Remove from the heat. Stir in sour cream, salsa and salt; set aside.
2. Place cottage cheese in a blender; cover and process until smooth. Transfer to a bowl; add the shrimp, crab, Monterey Jack cheese, chilies and cilantro.
3. Spread 3/4 cup sauce in a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish. Place about 1/3 cup seafood mixture down the center of each tortilla. Roll up and place seam side down over sauce. Top with the remaining sauce. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 30-35 minutes or until heated through. Serve with additional salsa. Yield: 6 servings.
