CHEESE ENCHILADAS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease a 9-by-13-inch shallow baking dish or pan or a very large cast-iron skillet.
• Add the oil and flour to a medium skillet. Set over medium-low heat and cook, whisking constantly, until the mixture (known as roux) turns a golden color, smells nutty and thickens, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Add garlic, chile powder, cumin, oregano and black pepper to the roux. Whisk until smooth (some clumping from the garlic is fine), being careful to not let the spices burn, about 30 seconds.
• While whisking constantly, add beef broth 1/4 cup at a time, whisking after each addition, until smooth. Reduce heat to low and simmer gently, whisking occasionally, for 10 minutes. Then remove from heat, and allow the gravy to rest for another 10 minutes. Taste the gravy and season with salt as needed for a savory sauce.
• Meanwhile, in another pan, lightly heat a tortilla over medium just until softened, about 30 seconds per side. Transfer to a clean kitchen towel or sheet of foil and wrap. Repeat with the remaining tortillas, stacking them in the towel or foil. Be careful of overcooking: You're softening each tortilla to prevent them from cracking as they're filled and folded.
• Fill a softened tortilla with about ⅓ cup of cheese. Roll shut and, with the seam side facing downward, place in the greased baking dish or skillet. Repeat until you've filled all of the tortillas, setting the rolls next to each other.
• Slowly pour the gravy over all of the tortillas to coat. Afterward, sprinkle the dish with the rest of the cheese and the diced onion.
• Bake until the gravy is bubbling and the cheese melted, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Garnish with parsley, if desired, alongside a sprinkle of salt and black pepper. Serve immediately.

SHRIMP ENCHILADAS WITH GOAT CHEESE AND CHIPOTLE CREAM

Steps:

• Fill a saucepan halfway with water and bring to a boil over high heat.
• Add the leeks, cook about 1 minute, and immediately drain and rinse with cold water.
• Wipe the pan dry and return the leeks to the pan.
• Add cream, goat cheese, salt and pepper.
• Place the pan over medium heat and cook, stirring until the cheese is melted and the sauce is somewhat thickened, about 10 minutes.
• Set aside.
• In a skillet heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. When hot, add the shrimp and sauté until they just turn pink, 1 to 2 minutes.
• When cool enough to handle, slice the shrimp lengthwise along their backs so there are now 24 pieces of shrimp.
• For the chipotle cream: In a mini food processor or with a sharp knife, very finely chop the chilies; strain into a small saucepan (there should be about 1 tablespoon puree).
• Add the cream to the pan and heat over medium heat, whisking, until the mixture is smooth and heated through.
• To assemble: Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Divide the cheese-leek mixture evenly among 4 tortillas, placing the mixture along the length of the center of the tortillas.
• Place 4 shrimp pieces on top and roll up into a cylinder.
• Place in an 8 x 8-inch ovenproof dish and pour the chipotle cream over all; cover with foil.
• Heat in the oven until warmed through, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Remove from the oven and, with a spatula, place 1 enchilada on each plate.
• Top each with 2 pieces of the remaining shrimp and surround with a spoonful of the sauce from the bottom of the baking dish.
