Preparation
- Serving size:9.10 oz (calculated)1 cup (by recipe creator)Notes: about 5 cannelloni
- Temperature: 350 °F
- In a large pan over medium heat, heat the oil.
- Saute the chopped onion until it is translucent, about 3 minutes.
- Add the minced garlic, cumin, chili powder and salt and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
- Add the shredded chicken and 3/4 of the enchilada sauce. Stir until coated.
- Use a vegetable peeler or mandolin to cut thin slices of zucchini. If you are using large zucchini and a vegetable peeler, you may have to cut the zucchini in half lengthwise first. It's important to cut thin slices, which is hard with a knife. If the planks are too thick, they are hard to roll up.
- Tip: If you're making a zucchini dish with chopped zucchini soon, it's easier to only slice about 2/3 of the zucchini and use the off-cuts for your next dish.
- Lay out 3 to 4 slices, letting them overlap slightly, and add some of the meat mixture.
- Roll up and transfer to an oven-safe dish. Repeat with the remaining zucchini planks and meat mixture.
- I used a 9 in by 13 in casserole for 6 servings. This nicely fit 3 rows of 10 zucchini cannelloni each.
- Cover with the remaining enchilada sauce and sprinkle with the grated cheeses.
- Bake until the cheese has melted and browned, about half an hour.
- Serve topped with a tablespoon of sour cream and some freshly chopped cilantro.
- Enjoy!
- You can store the dish in an airtight container for 3 days in the fridge or up to 3 months in the freezer. For best results, thaw overnight. Reheat in the microwave or oven. Add the sour cream and cilantro only after reheating.
