Preparation Steps
- Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Gather a 9x9-inch baking dish and lightly grease it.
- In a large skillet, heat 1–2 tablespoons of vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the chopped yellow onion and diced jalapeños and sauté for about 5 minutes.
- Add the diced tomatoes and minced garlic to the skillet. Cook for another 3-4 minutes until tomatoes are soft.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together heavy whipping cream, sour cream, cayenne pepper, chipotle chili powder, cumin, and salt. Pour into the skillet and simmer for about 5 minutes.
- Fold in the shrimp and cook for 3-5 minutes, until the shrimp are opaque and tender.
- Take the flour tortillas and spoon the shrimp mixture along one side of each. Sprinkle half the shredded cheese over the filling and roll tightly.
- Pour the remaining cream sauce over the enchiladas and top with the rest of the shredded cheese.
- Bake for 15-18 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown. Let sit for a few minutes before serving.

Notes
For best results, use fresh ingredients and allow the enchiladas to rest briefly after baking.
