View the next recipe for this meal.

Packed not only with tastiness from the sea, but these enchiladas love up spinach & mushrooms, too. Use corn tortillas to make it gluten free. Double check Seafoodwatch before making your fish purchases, most likely farm-raised tilapia, US Shrimp and most wild-caught crab are your best bets for this dish.

  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 1 onion, finely diced
  • 1 lb mushroom, slice, then roughly chop
  • 1 lb spinach, frozen and defrosted or fresh & chopped
  • 8 ounces tilapia fillet, roughly chop
  • 8 ounces shrimp, roughly chop
  • 8 ounces crab

Preparation Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375.

Add olive oil to a skillet over medium heat. As soon as it is shimmering toss in the onions and saute until soft. Add the chopped mushrooms for another 5 minutes.

Strain the defrosted spinach and squeeze out the excess liquid. Add the dry spinach to the pan. Saute until the remaining liquid is cooked off. If starting with fresh spinach, chop and saute until most of the liquid is cooked off.

Add the tilapia and raw shrimp. Saute until no longer raw. Remove from the heat and fold in the cooked crab and cilantro.

Warm the tortillas up in a dry skillet over medium-low heat or briefly over a gas oven flame.

Drizzle in a third of the enchilada sauce into the small baking dish. Fill each tortilla with the seafood & veggies. Roll them up and place in the baking dish. Cover with the remaining sauce and bake for about 10-15 minutes until the enchiladas are hot to the touch in the center. If you cool the casserole between assembling it and baking it, double the bake time.
