LAYERED TORTILLA LASAGNA



Layered Tortilla Lasagna image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 2h

Yield 8 as a main dish, or 12 to 16

Number Of Ingredients 11

About 4 tablespoons vegetable oil
3 cups (about 6 ounces) sliced stemmed mushrooms
1 1/2 cups corn kernels, preferably fresh and cut off the cobs (about 2 ears)
8 cups (about 10 ounces) packed, stemmed spinach leaves, well rinsed but not dried
1/2 teaspoon salt
16 tortillas (this is better with store-bought rather than homemade)
5 cups Chipotle Cascabel Salsa or substitute
1 cup heavy (whipping) cream, creme fraiche or plain yogurt
3 cups (12 ounces) shredded Mexican asadero-style cheese, brick, Monterey Jack or just about any melting cheese you like
15- or 16-ounce carton ricotta cheese
About 1/3 cup chopped fresh cilantro, for garnish

Steps:

  • Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large skillet over medium. When quite hot, add the mushrooms and cook, stirring, until just tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the corn and cook for a minute or two longer, then scrape the mixture into a bowl. Return the skillet to the heat without washing it and add the damp spinach. Cook, stirring constantly, until just wilted, 2 to 3 minutes. Scoop into a colander set in the sink and use a spoon to gently press out excess moisture. Let the vegetables cool, then scoop the spinach in with the mushrooms and corn and season with the salt.
  • Pour a little of the remaining oil into a small skillet to lightly coat the bottom and set over medium heat until hot. One at a time, quick-fry the tortillas for a few seconds per side just to soften them. As the oil is used up, add a little more, let it heat a moment, then continue frying tortillas. Drain the tortillas in a single layer on paper towels, blotting them dry with additional towels. Cut the tortillas in half.
  • Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Lightly oil a 13 x 9-inch baking dish. In a medium-size bowl, mix the salsa with the cream or yogurt. Spread a thin layer of the salsa mixture over the bottom of the baking dish, then cover with 8 tortilla halves. Evenly top with half of the vegetables, a scant 11/2 cups of the remaining salsa mixture and 1 cup of the shredded cheese. Add another layer of 8 tortilla halves. Spread with the ricotta and another scant 11/2 cups of the salsa mixture. Top that second layer with a third round of 8 tortilla halves, the remaining vegetables, another portion of salsa mixture and 1 cup of the shredded cheese. For the final layer, evenly lay out the remaining tortillas, spread with the remaining salsa mixture (making sure to completely cover the tortillas) and evenly sprinkle on the remaining 1 cup shredded cheese.
  • Cover lightly with foil and bake for 25 minutes. Uncover and bake for an additional 10 to 15 minutes, until bubbling and lightly browned. Let stand a few minutes before sprinkling with the cilantro and cutting into squares to serve to your guests on warm plates

MEXICAN TORTILLA LASAGNA



Mexican Tortilla Lasagna image

Even the pickiest eaters in my house gobble up this one!

Provided by Suzan Baroni

Categories     Beef

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 lb ground beef
1 large poblano chile pepper; seeded and diced
4 tsp chili powder
1 tsp ground cumin
salt and pepper
1 can(s) fire-roasted tomatoes (14.5-oz)
1 clove garlic (minced or pressed)
1 c frozen corn kernels
1/2 c enchilada sauce (more for over the top)
chopped cilantro leaves - to your taste
4 burrito sized flour tortillas
2 c shredded chedar or monterey jack cheese

Steps:

  • 1. Heat oven to 400 degrees. Coat a 1-1/2 to 2 quart baking dish with cooking spray. (I have an oval casserole dish I like to use.)
  • 2. Put the beef and peppers in a deep non-stick skillet. Cook over medium-high heat, breaking up the chunks of meat with a wooden spoon, 9 minutes or until beef is browned and peppers are tender.
  • 3. Stir in garlic, chili powder, cumin and salt & pepper to taste; cook 1 minute. Stir in tomatoes, corn and enchilada sauce; bring to a simmer. Cook 5 to 10 minutes to blend flavors. Remove from heat and stir in cilantro.
  • 4. To assemble the lasagna: Line the bottom of the baking dish with one tortilla (it may come up the sides of the dish a bit, that's okay). Top with one rounded cup of the meat mixture, then 1/4 to 1/2 cup of the shreddded cheese (I like to use a blend of cheddar and jack.) Repeat layers 3 times. You should have a little bit of meat left to spread on the top. Sprinkle on more cheese and pour over some of the remaining enchilada sauce. (Note: The original recipe says to "drizzle" some sauce over the top, but we like it saucy, so I will use whatever is left in the 14oz can.)
  • 5. Cover lasagna with foil and bake for 20 minutes. Uncover and bake 10 minutes longer or until heated through. Remove from oven and cool 5 minutes before cutting.
