Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 6 chicken thigh fillets, coarsely chopped
- 1 red onion, thinly sliced
- 2 teaspoons ground cumin
- 2 teaspoons ground coriander
- 2 teaspoons smoked paprika
- 12 small corn tortillas
- 1 cup (250ml) tomato passata
- 1/2 cup (40g) cheddar, coarsely grated
- Sour cream, to serve
- Mixed salad leaves, to serve
Avocado salsa
- 1 avocado, halved, stoned, peeled, finely chopped
- 2 tomatoes, seeded, finely chopped
- 1/2 red onion, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon jalapeno chilli, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 1/4 cup coriander, coarsely chopped
Method
- Step 1Preheat oven to 200°C. Heat the oil in a large frying pan over high heat. Add one-third of the chicken and cook, stirring, for 2-3 minutes or until browned and cooked through. Transfer to a bowl. Repeat with remaining chicken in 2 more batches. Return chicken to the pan with the onion, cumin, coriander and paprika. Cook, stirring, for 2-3 minutes or until heated through.
- Step 2Brush a tortilla with a little of the tomato passata. Top with chicken mixture and roll to enclose filling. Place enchilada, seam-side down, in the base of a 6-cup capacity baking dish. Repeat with remaining tortillas and chicken mixture. Spoon the remaining tomato passata over the enchiladas and sprinkle with cheese. Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes or until heated through.
- Step 3Meanwhile, to make the avocado salsa, combine the avocado, tomato, onion, chilli, lime juice and coriander in a medium bowl. Taste and season with salt and pepper.
- Step 4Divide enchiladas among serving plates and top with salsa. Dollop with sour cream. Serve immediately with salad leaves, if desired.
