Sausage & Cheese Enchiladas

Experience Jimmy Dean® Sausage south-of-the-border-style by serving up these cheesy, zesty enchiladas that will have your family saying gracias!

Ingredients

  • 1 pkg. Jimmy Dean® Regular Flavor Pork Sausage Roll
  • 1 can (4.5 ounces) chopped green chiles, undrained
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • ½ teaspoon ground cumin
  • 12 corn tortillas(6 inch)
  • 1 can (10 ounces) enchilada sauce, divided
  • 2 cups (8 ounces) shredded Monterey Jack cheese, divided
  • 2 green onions, thinly sliced
  • Sour cream for serving (optional)

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Cook sausage in large skillet over medium-high heat 8-10 minutes or until thoroughly cooked, stirring frequently; drain. Return sausage mixture to skillet.

2. Add chiles, garlic and cumin; mix well. Cook over medium heat 2-3 minutes or until thoroughly heated, stirring frequently.

3. Brush both sides of 1 tortilla lightly with enchilada sauce. Spoon about ¼ cup sausage mixture down center of tortilla; top with rounded tablespoon of cheese. Roll tortilla up; place, seam-side down, in lightly greased 13x9-inch baking dish. Repeat with remaining tortillas. Pour remaining enchilada sauce over enchiladas; top with remaining cheese.

4. Bake 20-25 minutes or until enchiladas are thoroughly heated. Top with onions. Serve with sour cream, if desired.

Cook’s Tip: For best results, assemble enchilladas one at a time. Instead of brushing tortillas with sauce as directed, you can instead dip tortillas in sauce in shallow dish. Brush off excess sauce before topping with sausage mixture and cheese.
