To prepare, simply remove the plastic film and heat the enchiladas in a conventional oven or microwave until thoroughly warmed through. For oven preparation, place the tray in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for about 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and melted. In the microwave, heat on high for 3-5 minutes, checking for even heating. You can add a dollop of sour cream or a sprinkle of fresh cilantro before serving for extra flavor.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to other enchilada varieties, these are specifically made with a verde sauce, which is derived from tomatillos, giving them a tangy and slightly herbaceous flavor profile. This differs from the richer, tomato-based sauces found in red enchiladas. The use of corn tortillas is traditional for this style.
