Creamy Cajun Shrimp Enchiladas Recipe Flavorite

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a 9x13-inch pan with cooking spray.
• Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Saute bell pepper and onion until slightly soft, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute more. Transfer mixture to a bowl.
• Add shrimp to the skillet and cook until starting to turn pink, 2 to 3 minutes. Add to vegetable mixture and stir in cilantro, lime juice, chili powder, and salt.
• Melt butter in the same skillet over medium heat. Stir in flour and cook, 1 to 2 minutes. Slowly add chicken broth and cook over medium-high heat, stirring constantly, until sauce thickens, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to low and stir in 1 1/2 cups Monterey Jack cheese until melted, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in sour cream and salsa.
• Stir 1 cup of cheese sauce into the shrimp mixture.
• Fill 1 tortilla with 1/3 cup of the shrimp mixture. Roll tightly and place seam-side down into the prepared baking dish. Repeat with remaining tortillas; pour remaining sauce over the top.
• Bake in the preheated oven, uncovered, until the tops are golden brown, about 35 minutes. Sprinkle jalapeno over the top, followed by remaining Monterey Jack cheese. Return to the oven and continue baking until melted, about 5 minutes more.
• Remove from the oven and let sit for 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• 1. Heat oven to 325. 2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet and sauté the onions and garlic until softened. Add the shrimp; lightly toss, then evenly sprinkle Cajun or Creole seasoning over them. Cook until the shrimp start to turn pink, about 2-4 minutes. 3. Add the whipping cream and stir well. Bring to a low simmer and add the cornstarch/water mix to thicken the sauce. Once the sauce has thickened, remove from heat. 4. Spoon some sauce (without any shrimps) into a greased 9 x 13 baking dish and spread it evenly along the bottom. Fill each tortilla by spooning about 2 tablespoons of the shrimp (and sauce) down the center and roll it. Place each seam-side down in the dish and once filled, ladle more sauce over top. 5. Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 15-20 minutes. Garnish with parsley or cilantro. navywifecook.com
