Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Cheesy Turkey Enchiladas.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C) and lightly greasing a 9x13-inch baking dish to ensure your enchiladas come out perfectly.
Step 2
Next, pour the enchilada sauce into a bowl and set it aside, letting those flavors mingle while you prepare the filling.
Step 3
In a small bowl, mix together the shredded Cheddar-Monterey Jack cheese, chopped onion, and sliced black olives for a deliciously cheesy blend that will elevate your enchiladas.
Step 4
Now, grab a small skillet and brush it with just enough oil to coat a tortilla, then heat it over low heat.
Step 5
Once it’s warm, add a tortilla and cook it for about 15 to 30 seconds on each side until it’s soft and pliable.
Step 6
Remove the tortilla, dip it into the enchilada sauce to coat it generously, and place it on a plate, ready for filling.
Step 7
In the center of the tortilla, add some chopped turkey and a spoonful of your cheesy mixture.
Step 8
Roll it up tightly and place it seam-side down in your prepared baking dish.
Step 9
Repeat this delightful process to create 11 more enchiladas, ensuring they snugly cover the bottom of the dish.
Step 10
Once you have your first layer, spread some enchilada sauce over them to keep everything moist and flavorful.
Step 11
Now, continue forming, rolling, and placing the remaining 12 enchiladas in the dish, layering them with love.
Step 12
Finish by drizzling the remaining sauce over the top and sprinkling the rest of your cheese mixture for that irresistible cheesy goodness.
Step 13
Pop the dish into your preheated oven and bake for about 20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, filling your kitchen with a mouthwatering aroma.
Step 14
Enjoy the warm, comforting flavors of your homemade enchiladas!.
