Chile Verde Enchiladas
2 red bell peppers, chopped
2 onions, chopped
1 1/2 lbs pork tenderloin, trimmed of all fat
1 cup nonfat chicken broth
1 1/2 tsp. cumin seed
1 Tbsp. minced or pressed garlic
1/4 cup minced fresh cilantro
2 cans (4 cups total) green enchilada sauce
2 cups nonfat milk
1/2 cup cornstarch
16 corn tortillas (6 in.)
2 cups shredded jack cheese
1 cup tomato salsa
Salt
Rinse pork, pat dry, and cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices
not more than 2 inches long. Set a 10- to 12-inch
nonstick frying pan over high heat; add meat and stir
Just until no longer pink, about 2 minutes. Pour from
pan into a bowl. When cool enough to handle, in about 5
minutes, tear meat into strips about 1/2 inch wide.
Meanwhile, add peppers, onions, broth, cumin, and garlic
to frying pan. Stir often over high heat until liquid
has evaporated and vegetables are lightly browned, about
10 minutes. Pour mixture into bowl with pork; add
cilantro.Pour enchilada sauce into frying pan and add
juices from meat mixture. In another bowl, blend milk
with cornstarch until smooth, and add to enchilada
sauce. Bring to a boil over high heat, stirring often.
Remove from heat.Stack tortillas and enclose loosely in
microwave-safe plastic wrap. Heat in a microwave oven at
full power (100%) just until hot, 1 to 2 minutes.
Pour about 2 cups enchilada sauce mixture into each of 2
shallow casseroles (each 3 qt., about 9 by 13 in) Turn 8
tortillas, 1 at a time, in sauce in 1 casserole and
stack at 1 end. Distribute 1/16 of the pork mixture and
1 tablespoon cheese down center of each tortilla, 1 at a
time. Roll to enclose filling; set tortillas, seam down
and side by side, in sauce. Repeat to fill tortillas in
remaining casserole.
Pour remaining enchilada sauce over tortillas, coating
them evenly.Bake, covered, in a 375*F oven until
enchiladas are hot, 40 to 45 minutes. Uncover, sprinkle
remaining cheese evenly over enchiladas, and bake until
melted, 2 to 3 minutes longer.Add salsa and salt to
taste.
