Zucchini Wrapped Chicken Enchiladas
Ingredients
Enchilada Sauce5 cloves garlic
1/2 tbsp olive oil
1 large onion
2 jalapeƱos (+/- depending on desired spiciness)
2 15oz cans chopped tomatoes
1 1/4 cups chicken broth
1 tbsp cumin
1/2 tsp chilli powder
1/4 tsp salt
Enchiladas
3 cups shredded chicken
3 large zucchini
1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese (optional) (omit if paleo or whole30)
Toppings
salsa
1 small avocado
1 tbsp cilantro
Sour Cream
1/2 cup cashews soaked overnight
1/3 cup water
juice from 1/2 lemon
pinch of salt
1/2 tsp apple cider vinegar
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 175 degrees Celsius (350 degrees Fahrenheit)
- Place the garlic, onion and jalapeƱo in a food processor and blend until everything has broken into a fine mince. Saute the onion mixture in olive oil for 4 minutes until the onions begin to soften then add in the remaining ingredients for the sauce. Season with salt and allow the mixture to simmer for 20 minutes.
- Once the sauce has thickened, taste and adjust the seasoning by adding more chilli, salt or cumin. Place the shredded chicken in a bowl and spoon half of the sauce over the chicken and stir so that its well coated.
- Wash the zucchini and cut the ends off and then cut the zucchini in half length wise. I recommend using a vegetable peeler to get thin slices but you could also use a knife nextpage
