Ingredients

• 2 cups lobster meat (cooked and chopped)
• 6 flour tortillas (8-inch)
• 8 ounces Brie cheese (rind removed and chopped)
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1.5 cups milk
• 0.5 cups heavy cream
• 1 cup white cheddar cheese (shredded)
• 1 tablespoon lime juice
• 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro (chopped)
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
• 1 cup enchilada sauce (green or white sauce preferred)
• 2 green onions (sliced thinly)
• 1 tablespoon olive oil or non-stick spray (for greasing the dish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a baking dish with olive oil or non-stick spray and set aside.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the flour and whisk continuously for 1-2 minutes to create a roux.

Step 3

Gradually pour in the milk while whisking to combine. Add the heavy cream and continue to whisk until the mixture thickens, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 4

Stir in the white cheddar cheese, lime juice, cilantro, salt, and black pepper until the cheese is melted and the sauce is smooth. Remove from heat.

Step 5

In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked and chopped lobster meat with half of the Brie cheese (4 ounces). Mix gently to evenly distribute.

Step 6

Lay each tortilla on a flat surface. Divide the lobster and Brie mixture among the six tortillas and roll them tightly. Place each rolled tortilla seam-side down in the prepared baking dish.

Step 7

Pour the prepared cheese sauce evenly over the rolled tortillas, making sure to cover all the edges. Spoon the enchilada sauce over the top as well.

Step 8

Scatter the remaining chopped Brie cheese (4 ounces) and sliced green onions over the top of the sauced enchiladas.

Step 9

Bake the dish in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, until the sauce is bubbling and the Brie is melted and slightly golden.

Step 10

Remove the enchiladas from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with additional cilantro, if desired.
