Cooking Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 425 degree F. Coat a 9-by-13-inch glass baking dish with cooking spray.

2. Combine shrimp, corn, chiles and 1/2 cup enchilada sauce (or salsa) in a microwave-safe medium bowl. Cover and microwave on High until heated through, 2 1/2 minutes.

3. Spread 1/4 cup enchilada sauce (or salsa) in the prepared baking dish. Top with an overlapping layer of 6 tortillas. Spread refried beans evenly over the tortillas. Top the beans with the shrimp mixture, followed by the remaining 6 tortillas. Pour the remaining sauce (or salsa) over the tortillas. Cover with foil.

4. Bake the enchiladas until they begin to bubble on the sides, about 20 minutes. Remove the foil; sprinkle cheese on top. Continue baking until heated through and the cheese is melted, about 5 minutes more. Top with cilantro and serve with lime wedges.

Easy!

This is very easy to make and tastes great! I used ground beef instead of shrimp, and topped with a scoop of sour cream. Yummy!!

Easy Recipe

I used small frozen cooked & shelled shrimp costing $6.00 a pound. The amount of shrimp could easily be reduced, maybe adding chopped onion & bell pepper. All in all, it's a good inexpensive way to serve shrimp. I'll prepare it again making a few adjustments.
