Ingredients
- 8 Corn Tortillas
- 1 lb Ground Beef
- 1/2 Onion Diced
- 2 Garlic Cloves Minced
- 1 tbsp Chili Powder
- 1 tsp Ground Cumin
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- 1/4 tsp Black Pepper
- 2 cups Shredded Cheddar Cheese
- 2 cups Chili Sauce (Canned Or Homemade)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook until browned, about 5 minutes.
- Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet with the ground beef. Cook until the onion is translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add the chili powder, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper to the skillet with the ground beef. Stir to combine and cook for 1-2 minutes.
- Remove the skillet from heat and let it cool for a few minutes.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef mixture and 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese. Stir to combine.
- Warm the tortillas in a microwave or on a griddle until they're soft and pliable.
- Divide the ground beef and cheese mixture among the tortillas, placing the filling in the center of each tortilla.
- Roll up the tortillas tightly and place them seam-side down in a baking dish.
- Pour the chili sauce over the enchiladas, making sure they're completely covered.
- Sprinkle the remaining shredded cheddar cheese over the top of the enchiladas.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Remove the enchiladas from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.
Notes
Storage:
Enchiladas can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, microwave or bake in the oven until warmed through.
