Prep Time: 10 min.
Cook Time: 15 min.

1 jar (about 17.5 ounces) prepared enchilada sauce
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 small zucchini cut in 2-inch strips (about 1 cup)
12 (6-inch) corn tortillas
Crumbled queso aņejo * or* freshly grated Parmesan cheese
Thinly shredded lettuce

1. Pour *1 1/2 cups* enchilada sauce into a shallow dish and set it
aside. *Heat 1 tablespoon* oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium
heat. Add the zucchini and cook until it's tender-crisp. Stir the
remaining enchilada sauce in the skillet.

2. Dip the tortillas in the reserved enchilada sauce to coat.

3. Heat *1 tablespoon* oil in another 12-inch skillet. Add *3*
tortillas, overlapping as little as possible. Cook for 1 minute, turning
once. Fold the tortillas in half and place on *1* plate. Repeat with the
remaining oil and tortillas, placing them on *3* more plates.

4. Sprinkle the tortillas with the cheese. Top with the zucchini mixture
and lettuce.

chorizo and shredded cooked chicken or beef.
Makes: 4 servings (3 enchiladas each).

Kitchen Clip
                              If you can't find queso aqejo, a traditional Mexican cheese,
try using queso fresco instead - it's often available in grocery stores,
crumbles easily and tastes great, too.
