ROASTED BUTTERNUT SQUASH AND SOY CHORIZO ENCHILADAS



Roasted Butternut Squash and Soy Chorizo Enchiladas image

This is a tasty variation on enchiladas! My version is vegetarian with soy chorizo, but it could easily be switched out for regular chorizo or taco-seasoned ground beef. Save time and work by buying pre-cubed bags of butternut squash. This is a mildly spicy dish, so you can cool it down a little by topping with sliced avocado and a dollop of plain Greek yogurt or sour cream.

Provided by Ree Drummond : Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h55m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 medium butternut squash, peeled, seeded and cut into 2 1/2-by-1/2-inch sticks
1/4 cup vegetable oil
3/4 teaspoon chili powder, plus more for sprinkling
3/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 large onion, diced
One 15-ounce can black beans, drained and rinsed
Three 15-ounce cans green enchilada sauce
16 corn tortillas
3 cups grated Monterey Jack or pepper jack cheese (about 12 ounces)
Chopped fresh cilantro, for topping

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Toss the squash, 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, 1/2 teaspoon each of chili powder and cumin, the salt and several grinds of pepper on a rimmed baking sheet. Roast, tossing once, until browned and tender, but not falling apart, 25 to 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a large skillet over a medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until lightly browned and tender, about 10 minutes. Stir in the black beans and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon each of cumin and chili powder. Cook until the beans are heated through and well combined, about 2 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside on a plate. Pour the enchilada sauce into the skillet, then reduce the heat to low and warm through.
  • One at a time, hold the tortillas over a stovetop burner set on a medium heat to brown slightly, about 30 seconds per side. Set aside.
  • Pour 2 cups of the enchilada sauce into a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. To assemble the enchiladas, dip a tortilla into the remaining sauce, then lay on a plate. Sprinkle some cheese down the middle, followed by some of the bean mixture and finally some of the roasted squash. Roll it up tightly, then place seam-side down in the baking dish. Repeat with the rest of the tortillas. If you have any extra pieces of squash or the bean mixture, tuck them in between the enchiladas. Be sure to save a little cheese for the topping!
  • Pour the rest of the sauce over the enchiladas, then top with the remaining cheese. Add a final sprinkling of chili powder, then bake until hot and bubbly, 20 to 30 minutes. Let sit for 15 to 20 minutes before serving. Top with the cilantro.

Provided by Anna Stockwell

Categories     Bon Appétit     Breakfast     Squash     Brunch     Sausage     Pork     Butternut Squash     Quick & Easy     Fall

Yield 4 serving

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 Tbsp. (or more) extra-virgin olive oil
8 oz. fresh chorizo, casings removed
1 lb. butternut squash (about 1/2 of a medium squash), peeled, cut into 1/2" pieces (about 4 cups)
1 medium onion, coarsely chopped
Kosher salt
Lime wedges and cilantro leaves with tender stems (for serving)

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a large heavy skillet (preferably cast iron) over medium-high. Cook chorizo, breaking up into small pieces with a wooden spoon, until browned and cooked through, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl with a slotted spoon; reserve skillet with fat.
  • Add butternut squash and onion to reserved skillet and cook over medium-high, adding more oil if needed and stirring occasionally, until golden brown and tender, 10-15 minutes. Stir in chorizo and season with salt. Squeeze a lime wedge over and top with cilantro. Serve with additional lime wedges for squeezing over.

Tips:

  • Choose the right butternut squash: Look for a squash that is firm and heavy for its size, with a deep orange color. Avoid any squash that has soft spots or bruises.
  • Roast the butternut squash properly: Roasting the squash brings out its natural sweetness and flavor. Be sure to roast the squash until it is tender and slightly caramelized.
  • Use a good quality soy chorizo: Soy chorizo is a plant-based chorizo made from soy. It is a good source of protein and fiber, and it has a slightly spicy flavor. Choose a soy chorizo that is made with high-quality ingredients.
  • Make the enchilada sauce ahead of time: The enchilada sauce can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. This makes it easy to assemble the enchiladas when you are ready to serve them.
  • Serve the enchiladas with your favorite toppings: Some popular toppings for enchiladas include sour cream, guacamole, salsa, and cheese.

Conclusion:

Roasted butternut squash and soy chorizo enchiladas are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for any occasion. The roasted butternut squash adds a sweet and savory flavor to the enchiladas, while the soy chorizo provides a spicy kick. The enchilada sauce is creamy and flavorful, and the cheese melts perfectly on top. These enchiladas are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
