1/2 pound cooked bay shrimp
1/4 cup vegetable oil
8 (6-inch) corn tortillas
1 1/2 cups (6 ounces) shredded Monterey jack

Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion, bell pepper and garlic; cook, stirring occasionally, for 3 to 4 minutes or until vegetables are tender.

Add 1/4 cup enchilada sauce and shrimp. Cook for 2 minutes or until heated through.

Pass tortillas, using tongs, through oil to soften. Place on paper towels to drain.

Pass tortillas through enchilada sauce. Spoon 1/4 cup shrimp mixture down center of each tortilla; sprinkle with 1 tablespoon cheese. Roll up. Place seam-side down on microwave-safe platter or baking dish. Top with remaining enchilada sauce. Sprinkle with remaining cheese.
