Ground Beef Enchiladas Recipe
- 1 1/2 pound grnd chuck
- 1 tbsp. chili pwdr
- Salt & pepper to taste
- 1/2 c. oil & 1 tbsp.
- 1 quart. enchilada sauce
- 1 lg. onion, minced
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic pwdr
- 24 corn tortillas
- 1 pound grated cheddar cheese
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- In large skillet, place 1 Tbsp.
- oil and 2 Tbsp.
- minced onion.
- Saute/fry onion till tender, crumble meat into skillet.
- As it browns, add in spices and stir often while meat is browning.
- When meat is done, drain excess grease.
- Next, heat oil in small skillet, and dip tortillas one by one for 3 to 4 seconds each, only long sufficient to make limber.
- Stack the tortillas on top of each other in pan.
- You will need to pour the excess oil from the tortillas back into the skillet as it accumulates.
- Spray large baking pan or possibly dish with Pam and begin the assembling of the enchiladas.
- I make 2 at a time, and use my hands to make them.
- Lay 2 tortillas flat in baking dish, sprinkle approximately 1 1/2 Tbsp.
- meat on tortilla, followed by same amount of cheese, then sprinkle onion (optional) sparingly.
- Roll tortilla and place seam side down.
- Continue process, stacking enchiladas next to each other till pan is full.
- Make 2 rows and a large pan will usually hold 16 enchiladas.
- (Baking pan size 12 x 20 inches.)
- Pour enchilada sauce over enchiladas, use sauce liberally.
- Top with more grated cheese, sprinkle more meat and lightly sprinkle with onions.
- Bake in oven 20 to 25 min till cheese is bubbly.
- Serve with picante sauce, lowfat sour cream, guacamole, tortilla chips, Spanish (Mexican) rice and diced tomatoes and minced lettuce.
- I also prefer serving Ranch Style beans with enchiladas instead of refried beans.
- Serves 8.
