Shrimp & Cotija Enchiladas with Salsa Verde & Crema Mexicana


I got this amazing recipe out of the June '09 Bon Appétit magazine. Mexican food is one of my favorite things to eat, by far!!! This is my first time to make this. I made a few adjustments to the recipe. First on the salsa verde, I made it the day before to let the flavors really come together. And in that salsa, it called for 4 poblanos, I substituted one poblano for 4 jalapeno peppers(I like spicy foods). And then I also added the juice of 2 limes. Also making the salsa the day before, cut down on prep time today greatly. Making the enchiladas was simple enough, just make sure not to over cook the shrimp, since they are still going to bake. I baked them, and they came out amazing. I topped them with thinly sliced red onion, avocado, cilantro and the crema mexicana. The way all the flavors came together was delightful. So many different elements, it was amazing!! I hope y'all will try this recipe, and enjoy it as much as we did!! Here's the link to the recipe on Epicurious.
