Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 350°F. In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add the onion and sauté until crisp-tender, about 3-4 minutes. Add the shrimp and snapper; cook until the shrimp turn pink, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the seafood mixture from the pan.

In the same pan, combine the salsa verde, cream cheese, chopped green chiles, and salt. Cook and stir over medium heat just until the cream cheese is melted. Stir in 1 cup of the shredded Monterey Jack cheese, then remove from heat.

Spread 1 cup of the cheese sauce into a greased 13x9-inch baking dish. Gently stir the remaining cheese sauce into the seafood mixture. Place about 1/3 cup of the seafood mixture off-center on each corn tortilla. Roll up the tortillas and place them seam-side down in the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of shredded cheese over the top.

Cover the dish and bake until heated through and the cheese is melted, about 20-25 minutes. Sprinkle with fresh cilantro or jalapeño slices before serving.
