1 1/2 cups sharp cheddar cheese, grated
2 cups packed pork carnitas
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 can (15 oz.) corn kernels, drained

How To Make pulled pork enchiladas

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350ºF. In a 9 x 13-inch baking dish, spread on the bottom a fine coat of enchilada sauce; set aside. In a small bowl, combine the two cheeses together; set aside.

Step 2

In a skillet over medium-high heat, add oil. When hot but not smoking, add pork and cook to warm it up, tossing continuously, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and add red kidney beans, corn, and ½ cup mixed cheese; stir to combine.
Step 3

Fill each tortilla with ½ cup of pork mixture. Roll up by folding the ends and transfer into the prepared dish. Ladle over the remaining enchilada sauce and transfer into the preheated oven; bake for 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and sprinkle the remaining cheese on top. Return the baking dish to the oven and bake for another 10-12 minutes or until the cheese is melted and golden.
Step 4

Sit for 5 minutes before serving. Spread sour cream across, add tomatoes, avocado and sprinkle cilantro.
