Steps:
- Ground Beef

- Homemade Enchilada Sauce:
- Heat the oil or butter in a medium size skillet over medium heat.

Steps:
- In a saucepan over medium-low heat, combine the canola oil and flour. Whisk together and allow to bubble for 1 minute. Pour in the red sauce, chicken broth, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer while you prepare the other ingredients.
- While the sauce is simmering, brown the ground beef with the onions in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Drain the fat, add the salt and stir to combine. Turn off the heat and set aside.
- In a small skillet over medium heat, heat some canola oil. Lightly fry the tortillas just until soft. Do not crisp. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate. Repeat until all the tortillas have been fried.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Spread 1/2 cup of the sauce in the bottom of a 9- by 13-inch baking dish. Next, one at a time, dip each tortilla into the sauce. Set the sauce-soaked tortilla on a plate. Place on some of the meat mixture, chilies, green onions and black olives. Top with a generous portion of grated Cheddar. Roll up the tortilla to contain the filling inside.
- Place the tortilla seam side down in the baking dish. Repeat with the rest of the tortillas and pour the remaining sauce over the top. End with a generous sprinkling of cheese and any other bits of chiles, green onions or olives you have left over from the filling.
- Bake the enchiladas for 20 minutes, or until bubbly. Sprinkle chopped cilantro over the top and serve.

Steps:
- Add the enchilada sauce to a small saucepan. In a small bowl, combine the salt, cumin, chili powder, smoked paprika, and pepper. Add 1/2 teaspoon of the spice mixture to the enchilada sauce (reserve the remaining spice mix for the beef). Bring the sauce a simmer over medium heat; Remove from the heat and set aside.
- In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic; cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the beef and the remaining spice blend. Cook, stirring often, until the beef is browned and crumbly, about 8 minutes. Stir in the green chiles and 1/2 cup of the warmed enchilada sauce; cook 2 minutes more. Remove from the heat, and let cool slightly.
- Place the tortillas on a microwave-safe plate and cover with a damp paper towel. Microwave for 30 seconds on high to soften. Leave the paper towel over top of them to keep them moist and pliable.
- Preheat the oven to 375°. Spoon 1/2 cup of the warmed enchilada sauce into the bottom of a 13x9-inch baking dish. Working with one tortilla at a time, spoon 1/2 cup of the beef mixture down the center of a tortilla; sprinkle with 2 tablespoons cheese. Roll the tortilla up to enclose the filling, and place in the baking dish seam-side down. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling. Spoon the remaining sauce over the enchiladas. Top with the remaining 1 cup cheese.
- Bake until the cheese is golden and bubbly and the tortillas are toasted, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes; top with red onion and cilantro just before serving with sour cream, if you like.

Tips:
- Mise en Place: This French term means "put in place" and refers to the practice of preparing all of your ingredients before you start cooking. This will help you stay organized and ensure that you have everything you need before you start cooking.
- Choose the Right Beef: For enchiladas, you want to use a beef that is flavorful and tender. Some good options include flank steak, skirt steak, or chuck roast.
- Season the Beef Well: Be generous with the seasonings when you are cooking the beef. This will help to develop flavor and make your enchiladas more delicious.
- Shred the Beef Properly: Once the beef is cooked, shred it against the grain. This will help to make the beef tender and easy to eat.
- Use Fresh Ingredients: Whenever possible, use fresh ingredients for your enchiladas. This will help to ensure that your dish is flavorful and delicious.
- Don't Overfill the Enchiladas: When you are assembling the enchiladas, don't overfill them. This will make them difficult to roll and they may fall apart when you bake them.
- Use a Good Cheese: The type of cheese you use for your enchiladas will have a big impact on the flavor of the dish. Some good options include cheddar cheese, Monterey Jack cheese, or queso Oaxaca.
- Bake the Enchiladas Until They Are Golden Brown: When you are baking the enchiladas, bake them until they are golden brown. This will help to ensure that they are cooked through and that the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Conclusion:
Beef enchiladas are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are perfect for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion. With a little planning and preparation, you can easily make delicious beef enchiladas at home. So what are you waiting for? Get cooking!
