Enchiladas de cerdo desmenuzado

Ingredientes

• 8 teaspoons olive oil (plus more for brushing baking dish and reheating pulled pork)
• 8 flour tortillas
• 3 cups green enchilada sauce (divided, (recipe note #1))
• 1 pound pulled pork
• Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper (to taste)
• 2 green onions (very thinly sliced)
• 1/2 cup finely chopped fresh cilantro (plus more for serving, optional)
• 8 ounces canned roasted and diced green chiles (drained, (recipe note #1))
• 8 ounces shredded Monterey Jack cheese (divided)
• sour cream (to taste, optional)

Preparación

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 350˚F.

2. 2

   Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat until hot. Add 1 teaspoon of oil and swirl to coat. Add tortilla and fry for 10-15 seconds per side until lightly brown; transfer to plate. Repeat with remaining tortillas. Set aside.

3. 3

   Warm pulled pork (leftover from the refrigerator/freezer or freshly made and still warm) by adding a little oil to a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add pork; cook and stir until warmed through with a few crispy edges. Season to taste with salt and pepper and transfer to a large bowl to cool slightly.

4. 4

   To slightly cooled pulled pork add green onions, cilantro, diced green chiles, 1/2 cup of the green enchilada sauce and 4 ounces of the cheese; gently stir to combine.

5. 5

   Brush bottom and edges of a 9 x 13-inch baking dish with olive oil. Pour in 1/2 cup of the green enchilada sauce and smooth to an even layer.

6. 6

   Place one tortilla on a plate and top with 1/8 of the pulled pork mixture (~4 ounces of filling); roll up and place seam-side down in one end of prepared baking dish. Repeat with remaining tortillas.

7. 7

   Top enchiladas with remaining 2 cups green enchilada sauce, spreading it out to the edges. Sprinkle with remaining cheese. Bake uncovered 30 to 35 minutes until enchiladas are heated through and cheese is melted. Serve topped with sour cream and fresh cilantro if desired.
