First, let’s make the sauce. To make the sauce, combine all the ingredients for the sauce together in a bowl and whisk until smooth.
Next, let’s make the enchiladas. To make the enchiladas, preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Heat a skillet with 1-2 tsp oil over medium-high heat. Add the onions, garlic, and jalapeno into the skillet and saute for about 2 minutes. Add the sweet potatoes and sauté for another minute.
Then, add the water, cumin, chipotle chili powder, salt, coconut aminos and a few dashes of pepper. Mix together, cover and reduce heat to medium. Allow to cook for about 7-8 minutes until water has cooked off and potatoes are soft.
After, fill two tortillas with the filling and roll up. Place them in a glass casserole pan and brush generously with the sauce. Bake for 10 minutes.
