Vegan Jackfruit Enchiladas Verde Recipes

VEGAN JACKFRUIT ENCHILADAS VERDE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375ºF.
• Heat the oil in a small saucepan. Add the onion and garlic and saute until onion is tender, about 3 minutes. Add the jalapeno, tomatillos, cumin, salt, and pepper and saute for another 2 - 3 minutes.
• Pour in the broth, bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce to simmer. Cook for 10 minutes until the tomatillos are soft. Transfer the mixture to a blender and blend on high until creamy.
• While the sauce is cooking, prepare the filling. Add the jackfruit, beans, salsa, and spices into a large bowl. Stir together until combined and set aside.
• When ready to assemble the enchiladas, add 1/4 cup of sauce into the bottom of a baking dish. Spoon about 2 - 3 tablespoons of filling into the center of a tortilla and roll it up. Place the tortilla seam side down in the baking dish. Repeat until you've filled the dish.
• Once filled, pour on the rest of the sauce and spread evenly across the tortillas. Sprinkle on the cheese.
• Bake on the center rack for 25 - 30 minutes until the cheese is melted and the filling sounds bubbly. Remove from the oven and allow to sit for 5 minutes. Serve immediately and garnish with your fave toppings (I like avocado & cilantro!).

JACKFRUIT ENCHILADAS

Steps:

• Roast Roma tomato over a gas burner. Core tomato and cut into 8 pieces; set aside.
• Remove stems and seeds from all chile peppers. Mince peppers and place in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook until warmed, 2 to 3 minutes. Add vegetable broth, reduce heat to low, and cook for 30 minutes.
• Use a slotted spoon to transfer peppers to a blender. Add fire-roasted tomato, onion, garlic, vegetable base, cider vinegar, salt, and a small amount of broth to the blender. Pulse, adding more broth as necessary, to desired consistency. Reserve remaining broth for the filling.
• Heat 1 teaspoon peanut oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add sauce and simmer for 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon oil for filling in a skillet over medium heat. Add onion and bell pepper and cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Remove to a bowl. Add mushroom to the skillet, adding more oil if necessary; cook and stir until juicy and tender, about 5 minutes. Add tamari and liquid smoke, then remove and add to the onion mixture.
• Add more oil to the skillet. Add jackfruit, pollo asada seasoning, paprika, cumin, sazon seasoning, seafood seasoning, garlic powder, and salt. Cook and stir, shredding the jackfruit as it cooks, until golden brown, 5 to 8 minutes. Add onion mixture along with some reserved broth. Reduce heat to low, cover, and steam for 10 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Meanwhile, brush tortillas with more peanut oil and fry in a skillet.
• Stuff each tortilla with filling and roll up. Place in a 9x13-inch casserole dish. Top with some sauce, reserving some for serving. Sprinkle with vegan cheese.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Turn on the broiler and broil until cheese is melted, about 3 minutes. Top with remaining sauce.
