Seafood Enchiladas

This is kind of self-explanatory, but that would not be doing this dish justice. There is some heat, some herbaceous, some salty seafood, and some creamy cheese. I had only worked with tomatillo based sauces a couple of times, but this dish would be lacking without it. It is not a super intense dish but does rely on timing. I got and you will get some oohs with the presentation. Crosby’s Crabs provided the seafood. I hope you like it.

1 tablespoon butter
1 small yellow onion diced
3/4 pounds 31-35 peeled deveined shrimp
1/2 pound red snapper skinned
1 1/2 cup salsa verde
1/2 cup green chilies
2 cups Monterey Jack grated

1 bunch cilantro
1 jalapeño pepper
1 bunch green onions
4 ounce sour cream
Black olives
