INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Peel and dice the onion. Peel and slice the garlic. Remove apple sage sausages from packaging and slice into bite-size pieces. Cut corn kernels off the cob. Halve and juice the lime.
Heat 1 tbsp vegetable oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add just half the diced onion, just half the sliced garlic, and a pinch of salt, and cook until softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Add just 1 cup tomatoes, dried ancho chile, cumin, ¼ tsp salt, and ¼ cup water. Bring smoky ancho sauce to a simmer and cook until slightly thickened, 4 to 5 minutes.
Heat 1 tbsp vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add sliced apple sage sausage and cook until browned and crispy in places, 3 to 5 minutes. Add remaining diced onion and remaining sliced garlic and cook until softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat and add corn kernels, chipotle morita powder, and sour cream, and stir well to combine.
Transfer the smoky ancho sauce to a blender. Add lime juice and blend on low until smooth. Taste, and add salt as necessary. Add ¼ cup smoky ancho sauce to an 8 x 8 baking dish.
Top each of the corn tortillas with creamy corn and chorizo filling. Roll each tortilla and place seam side down in the baking dish. Top enchiladas with remaining smoky ancho sauce and cover baking dish with foil. Bake 8 to 10 minutes.
Roughly chop the cilantro leaves and stems. Divide the creamy corn and chorizo enchiladas between plates. Top with chopped cilantro. Tuck in!
