Type: Poultry, Turkey
Courses: Main Course
Serves: 4 people

Recipe Ingredients

1/2 cup 118mlVegetable oil
12   Six-inch corn tortillas
3 cups 711mlCooked turkey in 1/3" pieces
10 oz 284gExtra-sharp Cheddar - grated
1 cup 62g / 2.2ozFinely-chopped red onion
1/3 cup 48g / 1.7ozFinely-chopped fresh coriander - plus
  Coriander sprigs - for garnish
2 cups 474mlQuality enchilada sauce
2   Avocados - for garnish

Recipe Instructions

In a small skillet heat the oil over moderately-high heat until it is hot but not smoking, in it cook the tortillas, 1 at a time, for 5 seconds, or until they are softened but not crisp, and transfer them with tongs, letting the excess oil drip off, to paper-towel-lined baking sheets to drain.

On each tortilla mound 1/4 cup of the turkey, 1 tablespoon of the Cheddar, 1 tablespoon of the onion, and 1 teaspoon of the chopped coriander, roll up the tortillas jelly-roll fashion, and arrange the enchiladas, seam-sides down, in a shallow 3-quart baking dish. Pour the chili sauce over the enchiladas.

To freeze the dish, wrap the dish tightly with aluminum foil and label. To cook from the freezer, preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Bake in covered pan for 40 minutes. Uncover and sprinkle with the remaining 2 1/4 cups Cheddar and bake at 350 for 15 to 20 minutes more, or until the cheese is bubbly. Sprinkle the enchiladas with the remaining chopped coriander. Serve the enchiladas garnished with the avocado, peeled and diced, and the coriander sprigs.

This recipe yields 4 to 6 servings.
