    Cook the tomatoes with the 6 chiles de árbol and the guajillo chili peppers with 2 cups of water until the tomatoes are completely cooked. Remove from the heat and let cool to room temperature. Remove the stems from the chiles de árbol and the seeds from the guajillo chilies. Blend the tomatoes, the chilies, and the water in which they were cooked until well mixed; season with salt.

    Preheat the ovem to 350°F. Pour 1/3 cup of sauce in a square 8 inch baking dish that’s been lightly greased. Heat the tortillas on a griddle until they’re soft and easy to fold. Put 3 tablespoons of the shrimp stew and 2 tablespoons of crumbled cheese in the middle of each tortilla, and then roll up like a taquito. Now place 6 enchiladas, with the fold upside-down, in the baking dish. Cover this layer with half of what’s left of the sauce and 1/4 cup of crumbled cheese. Repeat this with a final layer of sauce and cheese.

    Bake the enchiladas for 25 minutes or until the cheese begins to broil. Garnish with strips of red onion and chopped cilantro. Serve with a side of rice soup and a green salad. Enjoy!
