Ingredients
Method
Preparation
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add the chopped onion and red bell pepper. Sauté 4–6 minutes until softened.
- Stir in the minced garlic and cook 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Add the shrimp, season with salt and pepper, and cook 2–3 minutes per side until just opaque. Remove from heat and chop roughly if shrimp are large.
Sauce and assembly
- In a bowl, mix the sour cream and cream of mushroom soup until smooth. Stir in 1 1/2 cups of the shredded Monterey Jack and season lightly with salt and pepper.
- Warm the tortillas briefly in a skillet or microwave wrapped in a damp towel so they’re pliable.
- Spoon a bit of the sauce down the center of each tortilla. Add a portion of shrimp and some sautéed veggies, then roll tightly and place seam-side down in a 9x13-inch baking dish.
- Pour any remaining sauce over the rolled enchiladas. Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup cheese over the top.
Baking
- Bake 15–20 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the edges bubble.
- If you like a slightly browned top, switch to broil for 1–2 minutes while watching closely.
- Let rest 5 minutes, then garnish with chopped cilantro and serve.

Notes
Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days. For freezing, assemble without baking and freeze for up to 2 months. Thaw in the fridge overnight, then bake before serving. Avoid reheating shrimp for too long to maintain tenderness.
