Chorizosweet Potato Enchilada Food

CHORIZO AND SWEET POTATO ENCHILADAS

Steps:

• Peel the sweet potato and cut it into small cubes (about 1/4-inch). Remove the stem and seeds from the poblano and also dice into 1/4-inch pieces. Mince the garlic.
• In a large skillet, sauté the sweet potato, poblano, and garlic in vegetable oil over medium heat until they begin to soften (about 5-7 minutes). Squeeze the chorizo out of it's casing into the skillet. Continue to sauté over medium heat, breaking up the chorizo into pieces as you stir, until the chorizo is cooked through (5-7 minutes more).
• Spray a large casserole dish with non-stick spray and preheat the oven to 375ºF. Scoop about 1/2 cup of the chorizo sweet potato filling into each tortilla, then roll into a cigar shape. Place the filled and rolled tortillas in the baking dish, seam side down. They should fill the dish and fit tightly against each other to prevent unrolling.
• Pour the enchilada sauce over the the rolled tortillas and top with shredded cheese. Bake in the oven until the edges begin to bubble (about 20-25 minutes). Top with sliced green onions after baking. Serve hot.

POTATO ENCHILADA

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium heat. Cook the shredded potatoes until golden brown on both sides. In a small bowl combine the melted processed cheese with the diced tomatoes with chiles.
• Stir in half of the peas and half of the corn, and mash them into the hash browns. When well combined, add the remaining peas and corn; continue mashing to combine. Stir in about 1 cup of the cheese and tomato mixture and mix well. Cook for 10 minutes, or until heated through.
• Spoon the potato mixture into the tortillas and roll like a burrito. Smother with cheese/tomato mixture.

POTATO AND CHORIZO ENCHILADAS

Steps:

• For the enchilada sauce: Heat the canola oil in a medium saucepot over medium heat. Add the onion and saute until softened, 5 to 6 minutes. Add the garlic and cook another 2 minutes. Transfer the onions and garlic to a blender. Add the stock, chili powder, salt, pepper and tomato paste and blend on high until smooth, about 30 seconds.
• For the enchiladas: Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chorizo and cook, breaking it up into small pieces with a wooden spoon, until cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes. Drain off the rendered fat. Let cool.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Heat the canola oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Fry each tortilla until lightly crisp but still pliable, 10 to 15 seconds. Drain on a baking sheet lined with paper towels.
• In a large bowl, toss together the chorizo, home fries or potatoes and 1 cup of the cheese.
• Ladle about 3/4 cup of the enchilada sauce into the bottom of a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Place about 1/4 cup of the chorizo mixture in the center of each tortilla and roll up. Arrange the filled tortillas in the baking dish seam-side down in a single row from end to end. Pour the remaining enchilada sauce over the top. Top with the remaining 1 cup cheese. Bake until the cheese is melted and bubbly, 15 to 20 minutes.
• While the enchiladas cook, combine the sour cream, hot sauce and lime juice in a small bowl.
• Drizzle the enchiladas with the sour cream mixture and garnish with the cilantro.
