  • We challenged chefs of three different skill levels - amateur Keith, home cook Anthony, and professional chef Saul Montiel - to make us enchiladas. Once each of them had presented their creation, we asked food scientist Rose to weigh-in on their choices. Would you eat all three? Which one are you tucking into first?

      As a general rule, Flour tortillas have far better structure and are a blank canvas, and are much more better for Tex-Mex dishes like Quesadillas and Burritos. Corn Tortillas are softer and have a nuttier and earthier flavor and are best in dishes like Enchiladas.

      Truvak T ... You know it’s Optional & every family has their own tweak. If you wanted your enchiladas to be spicy... then add jalapeños. I prefer without it. Also my mother’s recipe is quite similar to Raul. The sauce is exactly the same minus peanuts & jalapeños. Tortillas however are store bought & fried about 18 seconds. When done we dip the tortillas in the sauce & then add the shredded chicken & roll. Done. We always like to add crema & cheese Saul used with shredded lettuce on top of our enchiladas. Up until recent years I was baffled many use OVENs to make their enchiladas. But then again it’s usually Americans...

    Breakfast enchiladas is something we do pretty regularly in El Paso actually. Here we usually stack the tortillas flat, adding layers of cheese, Chile, chicken, and onions. Then we put two fried eggs on top. "Enchiladas Montadas" are my favorite way to eat them. You can also get them with green salsa instead of red if you prefer.
