How to Make a Tortilla Bowl for a Chicken Enchilada Ring

[straitfan]

AUUUGH! I haven't had any luck with searches! HOW do you make the tortilla bowl mentioned in other posts about the chicken enchilada ring? I'm doing it for a show tomorrow night and was just going to do a v-cut pepper for the center, but am liking the idea of a tortilla bowl filled with shredded lettuce, then salsa in the pepper, and sour cream and guacamole in the SA small bowls and caddy that I just earned last month as my SS Bonus!

(I actually have a tool to make a deep fried one, but this one supposedly uses the batter bowl and would rather make it using PC products!)

here you go!Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Lightly spray classic batter bowl with nonstick cooking spray. Gently press one 6-7 inch flour tortilla into bottom of bowl to form a shell. Bake 14-16 minutes or until edges are lightly browned. Cool the bowl 5 minutes; remove to colling rack and cool completely. To serve, place cooled shell in center of baked ring and fill half with salsa and half with sour cream. Garnish ring with shredded lettuce, if desired.

when I make these I have found that it is easier if before you press the shell into the bowl I microwave the shell for about 7-10 seconds this makes the shell move easier and is less likely to tear. I make these all the time for dips and stuff for parties they make clean up a snap and less dishes to wash!!
have fun!

I put shredded lettuce in the bottom of the shell, then put the salsa and sour cream on top of it. Everyone ooo's and aaah's over it.
