A while back I came across this fantastic recipe for Honey Lime Enchiladas. It was an instant hit with our family. Aaron loves these so much he even requested them for his Father's Day dinner! I had delayed posting these since Kirsti had already posted a delicious recipe for Honey Lime Enchiladas, but as these aren't identical and since they are in our top 5 meals I feel they deserve to be posted anyway :)Honey Lime Enchiladas
from The Sister's Cafe
1.5 lbs pork or chicken, cooked and shredded
Sauce:
1/3 cup honey
1/4 cup lime juice
1 TBSP chili powderb
1/2 tsp garlic powder
2 (10 oz) cans green enchilada sauce (I like to use Herdez Salsa Verde)
equal parts mixed together of:
mozzarella cheese, shredded
cheddar cheese, shredded
flour tortillas
Mix together sauce ingredients then add to shredded pork or chicken. Let the sauce soak into the meat for about 30 minutes.
Lightly spray 2 pans with non-stick baking spray. ( I usually use one 9X13 but it may vary with how thick you stuff your enchiladas. Pour green enchilada sauce into pans to coat the enitre bottom. Fill tortillas with shredded meat and desired amount of cheese. Roll and place in dish.
Pour remainder of sauce over enchiladas and sprinkle more cheese on top. Bake uncovered at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. Then turn on broiler and place enchiladas nearer the top of the oven. Let it broil until the cheese is slightly brown and crispy. It is now time to WOW your family!
