For the Sauce
3. Char the peppers. I do mine on the gas grill so my kitchen doesn't smell like charred peppers. Many people use the open flame of a gas stove burner. Peppers can also be charred in the oven. You're looking for the pepper skin to be black and have a blistered appearance. Once charred, place the peppers in a bowl covered with plastic wrap and let sit for a few minutes. Remove and wipe skin off using a paper towel. Remove the stem, seeds and membranes then dice the peppers. I know this sounds complicated but, its really simple and you'll love the flavor.
4. Melt the 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet with 2 inch sides. Add the onions and cook until translucent.
5. Next, add the peppers and cook an additional 1-2 minutes.
6. Add the skim milk and cream cheese and stir to melt the cream cheese.
7. Simmer mixture over medium heat until it thickens (about 4-6) minutes.
8. Mixture can now either be cooled and processed in a blender OR you can use an immersion blender directly in the skillet you used to heat the mixture. Either way you're looking for creamy sauce consistency.
9. Salt and Pepper to taste.
For the Enchilada's

12. Pour prepared sauce over the enchilada's and top with remaining cheese.
13. Cover with foil and bake for 25-30 minutes.
