Preparation
Preheat the oven to 180 °C. (357 °F)
For the sauce, in a pan with oil, cook the onion, garlic, green tomato, habanero pepper, cilantro for 10 minutes or until the vegetables soften. Fill with the chicken broth and wait for it to reduce, remove and cool slightly.
Blend the previous preparation with cream cheese, sour cream, coriander and pepper until you have a homogeneous sauce. Set aside.
In a pan over medium heat melt the butter and cook the garlic and shrimp until they change color. Add the cream, the ground chipotle and season with salt and pepper. Remove.
In a frying pan with oil fry the tortillas lightly until softened. Drain on absorbent paper. Fill the tortillas with the shrimp and fold like an enchilada.
In an oven proof dish, pour a little of the sauce, arrange the enchiladas, cover with more sauce and Manchego cheese. Bake until the cheese is au gratin.
Serve hot and garnish with cream, purple onion rings and cilantro leaves.
