  • 1 Tablespoon garlic minced
  • 1 1/2 pounds fully cooked shrimp peeled and deveined; diced
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro chopped
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder

  • 1 (4 ounce) can diced green chilis

  • To make the cream sauce, melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add flour and whisk until combined and cook, stirring continuously, for 1 minute. Slowly whisk in broth until completely smooth. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes or until sauce thickens. Remove from heat and mix in Greek yogurt, green chiles and enchilada sauce.
