Creamy Fish and Spinach Enchiladas (Fiskatortillas við Spínat)

Ingredients

  • 4 fillets of white fish
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
  • 2 cups fresh spinach
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 cup shredded cheese
  • 8 small tortillas
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Season the fish fillets with salt, pepper, and a pinch of paprika. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through. Once cooked, flake the fish with a fork and set aside.
  3. In a skillet, sauté the onion and garlic until softened. Add the cumin, paprika, and chili powder, and cook for another minute.
  4. Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and cook until wilted. Stir in the sour cream and half of the shredded cheese, then fold in the flaked fish. Remove from heat.
  5. Divide the fish and spinach mixture evenly among the tortillas, roll them up, and place them seam-side down in a baking dish.
  6. Sprinkle the remaining shredded cheese over the top of the enchiladas. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  7. Serve the Fiskatortillas við Spínat hot, garnished with fresh cilantro and a side of rice and beans.
