12 corn tortillas (small to medium size)
2 large poblano peppers (roasted and sliced)
1 cup frozen or fresh corn kernels (about 1 ear of corn)
2 cups shredded cheese (cheddar, Monterey Jack, or a blend)
1 cup enchilada sauce (store-bought or homemade)
1/2 medium onion (thinly sliced)
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp chili powder (optional, for heat)
Salt and pepper (to taste)
Fresh cilantro (chopped, for garnish)
Sour cream (for serving, optional)
Lime wedges (for serving, optional)
Preheat your oven’s broiler. Place the poblano peppers on a baking sheet and roast them under the broiler for about 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until the skins are charred and blistered.
Remove them from the oven and place them in a bowl. Cover the bowl with a kitchen towel or plastic wrap for about 5 minutes to help steam and loosen the skins.
After they’ve cooled, peel off the skins, remove the seeds, and slice the poblanos into strips.
Heat the corn tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave for a few seconds to make them pliable. This will make rolling them easier.
In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened.
Add the corn to the skillet and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Season with ground cumin, garlic powder, chili powder, and salt and pepper to taste.
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Lightly grease a sheet pan with cooking spray or olive oil.
Spread a thin layer of enchilada sauce on the bottom of the sheet pan.
Fill each tortilla with the sautéed corn and onion mixture, followed by a few slices of roasted poblano peppers. Roll them up tightly and place them seam-side down in the pan.
Once all the tortillas are filled and placed in the pan, pour the remaining enchilada sauce over the top. Sprinkle the shredded cheese evenly over the enchiladas.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and golden.
Once baked, remove the sheet pan from the oven. Garnish the enchiladas with fresh cilantro.
Serve with sour cream and lime wedges on the side for added flavor.
