    Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius).

    2

    In a skillet over medium heat, sauté the chopped onion and minced garlic for about 5 minutes until translucent.

    3

    Add the drained tuna and can of corn to the skillet, stirring gently to combine. Cook for an additional 3 minutes.

    4

    Remove from heat and set aside. Take the tortillas and fill each one with the tuna and corn mixture.

    5

    Roll the tortillas tightly and place them seam-side down in a greased baking dish.

    6

    Pour salsa over the top of the rolled enchiladas and sprinkle cheese evenly over them.

    7

    Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 20 minutes.

    8

    After 20 minutes, remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.

    9

    While the enchiladas are baking, prepare your garnish by chopping fresh cilantro.

    Once done, remove from the oven, let rest for a few minutes, and top with sour cream and chopped cilantro before serving.
