TURKEY ENCHILADA CASSEROLE
Ingredients
· 1 tablespoon minced garlic
· 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
· 1 teaspoon salad oil
· 1/2 cup chopped onion
· 12 corn tortillas (6 in. wide)
· 2 tablespoons minced fresh oregano leaves or 1 tablespoon dried
· 1 1/2 pounds ground turkey breast
· Chopped fresh cilantro
· 1 can (29 oz.) red enchilada sauce
· Salt
· 2 cups shredded jack cheese (8 oz.)
Preparation
1. In a 5- to 6-quart pan over high heat, stir turkey, onion, garlic, oregano,
and cumin in oil until turkey is crumbly and no longer pink, about 4 minutes.
Stir in 1 cup enchilada sauce. Add salt to taste.
2. Meanwhile, cut tortillas in half. Arrange a fourth of the halves evenly
over the bottom of a shallow 3-quart casserole, overlapping to fit. Sprinkle a
fourth of the cheese evenly over the tortillas, then top with a third of the
turkey mixture and a fourth of the remaining enchilada sauce, spreading each
level. Repeat to make two more layers of tortillas, cheese, turkey mixture, and
sauce; top with another layer of tortillas and sauce, then cheese.
3. Bake in a 425° regular or convection oven until cheese is melted and
casserole is hot in the center, 18 to 20 minutes. Sprinkle with chopped
cilantro.
