2-3 c **enchilada sause https://www.justapinch.com/recipes/sauce-spread/other-sauce-spread/red-hot-enchilada-sauce.html?p=48below in comments)

Steps:

  • 1. PREPARATION: Cook Red Hot Enchilada sauce (recipe https://www.justapinch.com/recipes/sauce-spread/other-sauce-spread/red-hot-enchilada-sauce.html and set aside. **NOTE:: you can use store bought enchilada sauce if you wish. Preheat oven to 350º Peel onion and cut into quarters, place in food processor. Cut peppers in half, remove stems, seeds and veins and add to food processor Cut stems from cilantro, and add leaves only to food processor. Pulse until finely minced; leave in processor for now Toss two cheeses together in bowl and set aside.
  • 2. Heat large heavy non-stick skillet (I use my cast iron) to medium high heat, then add cooking oil,ground chuck, chili powder, paprika, salt and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently until meat is "grey". Add onions, peppers and cilantro from food processor and cook about two more minutes. Remove from heat and set aside
  • 3. Lightly grease a 9" x 13" baking dish and set aside. Place 4-6 tortillas at a time on paper towel, cover with another paper towel and place in microwave for 20 seconds to soften. (Note: You need to do this in 2 or 3 bunches or the tortillas will get cold while you are working with them) Remove from microwave and place on cutting board or large piece of waxed paper. Take one tortilla and spoon meat mixture down center, sprinkle with a small amount of grated cheese, then roll up and place "seams down" in baking dish. Continue preparing one at a time until all tortillas and meat are used. (It's okay to scrunch the tortillas together, they will still cook)
  • 4. Pour the enchilada sauce over the entire dish, sprinkle remainder of cheese over top. You can add more cheese if desired (we like lots of cheese on ours) Place in oven and cook for 25-30 minutes until cheese is crusty and bubbly.
  • 5. Serve with salsa, charro or refried beans, and spanish rice for an authentic Tex-Mex platter. ENJOY.

TEX-MEX ENCHILADAS



Tex-Mex Enchiladas image

These are authentic Tex-Mex enchiladas as taught to me by a lady originally from Chihuahua, Mexico who then added a bit of Texas. They are super easy to put together and taste incredible! Watch out though, because there is nothing low-fat about them! I like to assemble these enchiladas in the morning or night before, come home and pop them in the oven. When cold, add 10 more minutes to the baking time. Leave out the onions for picky eaters.

Yield 5

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 (11.25 ounce) cans chili without beans
1 cup enchilada sauce
½ cup vegetable oil
1 tablespoon chili powder
15 corn tortillas
1 pound shredded Cheddar cheese
1 onion, chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Mix the chili and enchilada sauce together in a small saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally as it simmers.
  • Heat the vegetable oil and chili powder together in a small skillet over medium heat. Gently lay a tortilla in the hot oil and cook until the tortilla starts to puff. Remove with a spatula and place on a plate. Immediately sprinkle about 1/4 cup Cheddar cheese and 1 tablespoon chopped onion down the center of the tortilla; roll the tortilla tightly around the mixture and place, seam-side down, into the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish. Repeat this process until all the tortillas are used.
  • Sprinkle about 2/3 of the remaining Cheddar cheese over the rolled enchiladas. Pour the warm chili mixture evenly over the enchiladas. Scatter the remaining Cheddar cheese over the layer of the chili mixture.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the top is bubbling, 20 to 25 minutes.

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Beef Recipes     Ground Beef Recipes

Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 cup all-purpose flour (spooned and leveled)
1 can (14 1/2 ounces) reduced sodium chicken broth
1 1/2 tablespoons chili powder
1 small canned chipotle chile in adobo, minced, plus 1 tablespoon sauce from can
1 small onion, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
3/4 pound lean ground beef
Coarse salt and ground pepper
8 corn tortillas (6-inch)
1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (6 ounces)
1/4 cup chopped cilantro

Steps:

  • Make sauce: In a medium saucepan, heat 1 1/2 tablespoons oil over medium. Add flour and cook, whisking occasionally, 1 minute. Add broth, chili powder, chipotle and adobo sauce, and 3/4 cup water; bring to a boil, whisking constantly. Reduce heat, and simmer until lightly thickened, about 10 minutes.
  • Make filling: In a 10-inch nonstick skillet, heat remaining 1/2 tablespoon oil over medium-high. Add onion, garlic, and beef; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, until cooked through, about 8 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. (If freezing, don't place any sauce in baking dish. See Cook's Notes below.) Spoon 1/4 cup sauce in bottom of an 8-inch square baking dish. Set aside. Make enchiladas: Stack tortillas; wrap in foil, and warm in oven, 10 minutes. Fill each with a heaping 1/4 cup beef mixture and 2 tablespoons cheese; tightly roll up.
  • Raise oven heat to 450 degrees. Arrange enchiladas, seam side down, in baking dish. Top with remaining sauce; sprinkle with cheese. Bake, uncovered, until hot and bubbly, 15 to 20 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes before serving. Serve garnished with cilantro and, if desired, a green salad.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients for the best flavor. Fresh tortillas, cheese, and vegetables will make a big difference in the taste of your enchiladas.
  • Don't overfill the tortillas. You want to be able to roll them up easily without them breaking.
  • Use a good quality salsa. The salsa is one of the most important ingredients in enchiladas, so make sure you choose one that you like.
  • Don't skip the cheese sauce. The cheese sauce adds a delicious creamy texture to the enchiladas.
  • Bake the enchiladas until the cheese is melted and bubbly. This will ensure that they are cooked through and have the best flavor.

Conclusion:

Tex-Mex beef enchiladas are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for any occasion. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a dish that your family and friends will love.
