Time 1h

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup white rice
1 ½ cups water
1 pound ground beef
1 onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 (1.25 ounce) package taco seasoning
1 cup water

1 (7.75 ounce) can red enchilada sauce
1 cup sour cream
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • Bring rice and 1 1/2 cup water to a boil in a saucepan over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the rice is almost tender and the liquid has been absorbed, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease 2 9x13-inch baking dishes.
  • Cook beef in a large skillet over medium heat, breaking it up as it cooks, until crumbly and browned, about 10 minutes. Drain excess grease and stir in onion and garlic until thoroughly combined. Stir taco seasoning and 1 cup water into the mixture, bring to a boil, and reduce heat to low; simmer 5 minutes to thicken. Gently stir in rice. Cook, stirring often, until liquid is absorbed. Mix refried beans, cottage cheese, and 1 cup Cheddar cheese into the filling and stir until fully combined.

Tips:

  • Prep Your Ingredients: Before you start cooking, make sure all your ingredients are prepped and ready to go. This will help the cooking process go smoothly and quickly.
  • Choose the Right Beef: For the best flavor and texture, use a high-quality cut of beef, such as chuck roast or flank steak.
  • Cook the Beef Properly: Cook the beef until it is tender and juicy. Overcooking will make the beef tough and dry.
  • Make the Enchilada Sauce in Advance: You can make the enchilada sauce ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. This will save you time when you're ready to assemble the enchiladas.
  • Use Fresh Tortillas: Fresh tortillas will give your enchiladas the best flavor and texture. If you can't find fresh tortillas, you can use store-bought tortillas, but be sure to warm them up before using them.
  • Don't Overfill the Enchiladas: When you're filling the tortillas, don't overfill them. This will make them difficult to roll and they may fall apart when you bake them.
  • Bake the Enchiladas Until Golden Brown: Bake the enchiladas until they are golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly. This will ensure that the enchiladas are cooked through and have a delicious crispy crust.

Conclusion:

Creamy beef enchiladas are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. With a few simple tips, you can make sure your enchiladas turn out perfect every time. So next time you're looking for a crowd-pleasing meal, give this recipe a try!
