Category: Enchiladas and Crepes
Makes 8 crepes
Enchiladas become crepas when the filling is wrapped in savory corn crepes. For a striking plate with great color, serve the corn crepes with Tomato and Avocado Salad (see Salads).
8 Corn Crepes (1/2 recipe)
Basic Cooked Tomatillo Sauce
Shredded Spiced Chicken
2 teaspoons unsalted butter
1 cup cooked corn kernels, fresh or thawed if frozen
1/4 teaspoon salt
1. Prepare the corn crepes. Set aside on a plate. Prepare the tomatillo sauce. Set aside in a bowl. Prepare the shredded chicken. Set aside in a bowl. In a small skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the corn and salt. Cook, stirring, until heated through, about 2 minutes.
2. Preheat oven to 375°. In an 11- × 7-inch ovenproof baking dish, spread about 3/4 cup of the tomatillo sauce on the bottom. Fill one crepe with about 1/4 cup of the chicken mixture. Roll into a cylinder and place seam side down in prepared baking dish. Repeat, filling and rolling remaining crepes, and place them side by side in the dish.
